Are you taking things too personally?

[Geoff-Allen]

How are we all today?

Just did a quick google search about taking things personally (or not) ...

The only reason why you would take something someone says about you personally is if the approval of the person you’re interacting with is important to you. Realize the following:

You’ve been conditioned since birth–read, brainwashed–into thinking that you have to belong and be accepted by others.

The truth is, not everyone has to like and accept you.

In addition, you can’t control what others think of you. Even if you follow all of the “rules” and do everything “right”, how others respond to you is outside of your circle of influence.

If you accept yourself, and act in the way that you think is right, you’ll attract people who will accept you for who you are. That is, people around whom you don’t have to worry about what they’re thinking of you, because you know they love you.
