Next Time someone is mean to you Do this
I’m on a new stage in life.
A new stage of accepting myself as I am, who I am, and the way I am.
My Instagram is growing rapidly, many of my Instagram posts went viral on my personal account.
It means that there are thousands of people who I don’t know sharing their opinions, with me, about myself.
I got a few really mean comments.
This particular guy was really mean towards me.
I laughed.
My initial reaction was gratitude. I was filled with gratitude for my mindset.
This person which called me many names, first I know that deep down he is really hurting. Second of all, I laughed because I know it was not true. What’s even more interesting is the thought that I had afterward.
Even if all that he said was true so what?
Who cares?!
I don’t.
The only person who really cares is the one writing those comments.
Another example would be the mean comment about my outfit.
I love how my body looks, so I wear shorts a lot. The other day some guy made a comment about me, in terms of me being a whore, and I thought to myself even if I was a whore so what?!
And it almost became a mantra for me and took the pressure from me to be anything and anyone but myself.
And this, my friends, is a different level of self-acceptance and I’m all about it.
Next time someone says something mean to you, first of all, know that it’s not true, and second of all even if it was true so what?
PS. Something very powerful that helps me is not to give negativity attention. When I got a few negative comments I didn’t share them with anyone, I didn’t respond. I didn’t give it any power by me focusing on it.
Whatever you focus on grows.
My purpose in sharing my story with you is to inspire you, hopefully.
