Ep 78| How to get through hard things.

 

Don’t take anything personally. That’s the second agreement of Don Miguel Ruiz’s classic, “The Four Agreements.” He states, “Whatever happens around you, don’t take it personally. Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves.”

I’ve been criticized many times in my life. Many times it absolutely consumed me. But in this episode, I hope to share some insight I’ve learned over the years and hopefully give you a path through your pain and get you to evaluate it from a new perspective.

 

What’s in the episode: 

  • A very hard thing I recently went through.
  • How to move through the pain and muck others throw at you
  • How to deal with petty trolls
  • What I differently now when it comes to criticism. 

 

“Within every struggle, every obstacle, every challenge, every injustice, we get a choice to decide how we're going to react and how we're going to let it affect us.”- Kim Strobel
