Here is episode 2 of a four episode series about how we can simplify our internal well-being, really make us bulletproof to words and acts of others. Most of our suffering is done before the actual suffering and by the time the actual suffering comes it isn’t even close to what we imagined.
If you haven’t listened to the first episode of this series go and listen to episode 240 first where we talk about the first understanding which is be flawless in your words, the reason that episode is so important is because the other 3 understandings go hand in hand with being flawless with your words.
The second understanding is don’t take anything personal. This one has been one of the harder understandings for me to live by. But if we can master this understanding we become immune to any unkind word thrown at us even if it is a personal insult.
This episode will show you why we shouldn’t take anything personal even if the person is in front of us yelling insults straight at us. Nothing that people say is directly related to us. Not going to want to miss this episode to find out how!
As I always say, this is a journey, we won’t stop taking things personally overnight. Our health is a journey our mental well-being is a journey and all journeys have their rocks in the road but as we continue to become used to not taking things personally we won’t put our trust in what others say or do. We will trust ourselves enough to make responsible decisions. We are never responsible for the acts of others, we are only responsible for our thoughts, acts and decisions.
