It's OKAY not to be OKAY! Let's have a conversation about sitting with difficult emotions.
Today’s episode was inspired by @Oprah and @drebonyonline
Dr. Ebony said
“Stop internalizing other ppl’s stuff! Ppl will project onto you what they are experiencing and if you’re not careful, you’ll take it to be your own. Give yourself permission to release other ppl’s judgments, opinions, fears, and limits. “
I could not agree more!!
Have you ever been or felt disappointed? Of course, you have been disappointed, in fact, most of us have experienced disappointment.
Anxiety and depression often are triggered by feeling disappointed. Unmet expectations are often the root cause of feeling disappointed. Shifting our perspective,opting to have a standard for how we want to be treated in lieu of an expectation helps to alleviate feelings of disappointment.
I can accept who you are, and acknowledge that you don’t meet my standard so I can let it go, and move on. Have you heard of loving someone from a distance, picking your battles, or my favorite “compartmentalize it”!
Take heed to this advice from Oprah, and think about something (someone) you need to let go of what's keeping you stuck.
Let people be who they are, accept them or don’t, it is your choice to obsess or move on. Remember people change if and when they are ready to.
So focus on how you want to respond not react to being disappointed, examine your expectations, raise your standards, set some boundaries, and make your choice: acceptance or move on!
Happy listening and continue to #BETonSELF!
