If you are easily offended, you are easily manipulated. The real question is: How do I handle what comes at me?
There’s a big difference between being reactive and being responsive. I think reactive means: “He did this to me, so I’m going to react.” And, “It’s not my fault I blew up; he said that.” In this mode, you give away your power. On the otherhand, responsive means: “He did something, I feel it, I process it, I regulate it, and then I choose how to respond.” I think in this mode, you own your emotions, your choices, and your power.
When you learn to respond instead of react, you stop letting others control your state and start leading yourself. If this message resonates with you, I invite you to book a complimentary 30-minute discovery session with me via this link.
