Stop Taking Things PERSONALLY

Stop Taking Things PERSONALLY

When people disrespect you OR do not treat you well, it is indeed that easy to take their behavior PERSONALLY, to blame yourself and think you have anything to do with someone else's behavior. Stop Taking Things PERSONALLY.  WHY?  Taking things PERSONALLY is emotionally draining and an unnecessary, constant reevaluation of your self-esteem.  However, there's a difference being reflective and constantly taking slights personally, one is productive and lends itself to self improvements BUT the other is the opposite.  NOT taking things PERSONALLY gives you more control over how you respond, your emotions and your energy level💴💷💵

So, WHAT's the antidote to this dilemma?  It all boils down to us, to stop worrying about WHAT other people think.  At the end of the day, it really is NOT anyone's business what people think of you OR anything else.  You should worry about WHAT you think of yourself !!!  And WHAT people you know love and care about you and that's all.  Strangers and even acquaintances volunteering their OPINION of you has NOTHING to do with you, PERIOD.  And everything has got to do with them, NOT you.  The sooner you do NOT care what other people think, the more liberated you will feel and you will have more of a sense of self.  WHAT ELSE?  KNOW YOUR WORTH.  You're NOT going to believe WHAT other people think and say about you IF and WHEN you know WHO you are, and you REALLY like WHO you are.  Having self-confidence, and knowing your SELF-WORTH is the foundation on which everything is built📗📙📘

YOUR achievements, YOUR relationships, YOUR ability to keep going when life and work gets tough.  Doing the work to have self-confidence and SELF-WORTH is the best work you can ever put in.  The dividends will show in every aspects of your life, both personally and even professionally.  Another common mistake we commit is our tendency to JUMP INTO CONCLUSIONS.  Experts advise us DON'T DON'T DON'T ever do that because according to them, WHEN people cast judgment about you, they are rarely about you.  In fact, experts insists that as always, "IT'S ALMOST ALWAYS ABOUT THEM', THEIR issues, THEIR needs, and THEIR desire to control either you and/or that specific situation❌❌❌

To help manage your response to confrontation, know WHAT you're sensitive about, and WHAT triggers your emotions so you can prepare yourself if someone mentions them.  And if there's one vicious cycle that's hitting many of us, it is our being unable to LET THINGS GO.  Frame painful experiences as lessons, on HOW to be stronger and HOW to better navigate bad situations.  Do NOT let them make you angry OR bitter, use them to make you better and then, MOVE ON.  Holding on to pain does more damage to you than to the other person.  So, we're encouraged by experts to  LET THINGS GO, make more room for joy and happiness😃😃😃

Our takeaway?  DON'T live life in idleness.  Look at your calendar and if there enough gaps of idleness, endeavor to FILL YOUR CALENDAR.  If you are busy, it is hard to find time to think about other people and WHAT other people think.  FILL YOUR LIFE with family, friends and work that brings you joy, and prioritize accordingly.  Chances are, the strangers and acquaintances that are passing judgment and making critiques are NOT going to cross your mind.  C'mon dude, let's STOP TAKING THINGS PERSONALLY❗❗❗
