A quick thought from Our Founder
This is easier to ask than answer. Most, if not all of us will find ourselves at some point deliberating on the thoughts of others towards us. And the time spent worrying is more than what we would care to admit or reveal. But we must now answer the question of whether it is necessary or worth our time to be in that place of worry.
Inner peace begins the moment you choose not to allow another person or event to control your emotions.
The Power Of Positivity
There is a famous saying within the Jamaican vernacular which goes something like “you caa talk to mi afta you nah pay my rent”. Translated to mean “whoever wants to say something to me to cause change has to be very important to me” (or so is my interpretation, forgive me if it’s not)…
But seriously, why would we embrace another’s opinion when it does not add value to our lives; instead, it forces us into a stagnant place because the opinion is laced with fear, ridicule or some other negative force.
Most opinions are based on individual experiences (and we all experience life differently); this makes them what they are – ‘an opinion and not fact’. So why worry what others think, it really is their opinion, which – girlfriend, they will always have?
So then, how can you impact me if you have not walked my walk or something close to it….
Worrying about what others think about OUR lives really does nothing for us. Unless the person offering the opinion has something constructive that will guide us (and even then that should not cause us to worry).
We should become resolved to intentionally divorce ourselves from those who harm us emotionally and mentally…
Care about people’s approval, and you will always be their prisoner.
– Lao Tzu
