How We Are BEING Others’ Behaviors
MY HISTORY — ORIGINALLY POSTED MARCH 3, 2022 ON INSTAGRAM@THEPOINTOFYOU
With the hope of bringing more love to life, here’s a "simple" tool I use for my Self and with clients to help navigate, diffuse and prevent arguments and conflict with people we are close to, love, work with … and anyone who might trigger us in some way.
It starts with seeing and owning that we are caught in conflict, because we are giving away our power, by internalizing others’ behaviors and denying our sovereignty.
For example, if we feel that someone is not listening to us, we say we are “BEING” unheard, and we fight to prove our point. If we feel excluded, we say we are “BEING” left out, and we fight to prove we belong. If we are “BEING” criticized, we fight to prove we are not wrong. If we are “BEING” unappreciated, we fight prove our value. If we are “BEING” unsupported, we fight to prove how much we support others. Etc.
When we become aware of how we are “BEING,” we have the power to recognize that we don’t HAVE to define our Selves in this diminished way. Instead, we can make a conscious choice to “BE” in a more empowered way. Instead of being unheard by others, we can choose to listen to our Selves and choose for our Selves. Instead of being unappreciated by others, we can choose to value our Selves and make more fulfilling choices for our Selves. Etc.
