One of the best things I ever learned was to stop

One of the best things I ever learned was to stop feeling like I had to respond to every single thing.
I use to get so mad and felt it was my DUTY to let people know my thoughts.
Needless to say it was not only exhausting myself but I was doing a disservice by alienating myself from people.

When you learn to listen and observe, you literally free yourself from any obligation to respond.
Not everything needs my input. It's a lot of wasted energy putting my two cents in.
Dropping that weight is very liberating.

I found over time that when a problem arose, when I found life events difficult, that instead of looking at it as though the world was against me again, that I could stand back and reflect.

I learned to objectively observe the situation and ask myself what could I do differently this time?

If this has happened before how would I normally react?
Did that reaction help or solve the situation?

How can I choose to look at this now so that I learn rather than react to it?

When we shift our experiences to how we respond, everything changes.
If we learn to observe and listen within, we can be witnesses to our beliefs, patterns, habits, family patterns you've been taught.
There's so much we can learn when we shift ourselves within.

The world is reflection of your inner world.

So any changes must start within.

How many people have you met or are related to that present a popular personality to the world, but are abusers at home.
They yell, throw things, ate violent, controlling, etc
But to the boys their co-workers, friends and family they're so great.

I've known a few, including family and the best thing is to walk away. Don't play into the game. You can let them know you know.
Unfortunately most people won't believe you no matter how many times you tell them.

Yes! Trauma teaches you so many unhealthy patterns

Yes!
Trauma teaches you so many unhealthy patterns, behaviours and an asshat view of the world.

There is nothing wrong with you. But you've be handed a dysfunctional manual for life that you never asked for.

We first need to forgive ourselves for believing it was our fault.

We are a product of all we've been taught, shown, modelled.

If it's unhealthy, destructive, limiting, harmful, again it is not your fault!

But you can unlearn these patterns over time.

First be aware. Observe the patterns you run, without judgement.

And overtime change the steps in the pattern to create changes. .

Where did we get this narrative that says if we do

Where did we get this narrative that says if we don't get it right the first time we've failed?

Yet so many people cannot see past a first attempt at trying something.

They give up because they have a BELIEF that means YOU MUST REACH SUCCESS THE FIRST TIME OTHERWISE YOU ARE A FAILURE!

If this were true, babies would never learn to walk
We never eat
We'd never be able to write
We'd never ride a bike
We'd never do so many things that requires trial and error.

Look at any person you consider successful and read on they back story. In how long it took, how many mistakes they made... you'll be surprised just how many times they 'failed' ...

Change the narrative..because it's simply not true.

The 'failure' is when you give up trying.

Someone finally said it. You don't lose friends.

Someone finally said it.

You don't lose friends... you set yourself free from people who don't deserve to be in your life.
