Stop Letting People Control Your Emotions

Not letting other people control your emotions means one little thing done or said by someone else doesn't have the power to ruin your whole day, or worse, even longer. When you learn how to trust yourself and become in charge of your own mind and emotions you can stop letting people trigger you, you can stop overreacting, and you can stop letting others control your happiness because you are now in charge.

I'd love to hear - what connected with you from this talk?

Nothing is as personal as we make it out to be. People’s behavior are usually a reflection of internal things. So focus on yours, & let others focus on theirs 🤗

You don’t have to attend every argument you are invited to.
(My favorite meme I saw last week)

All people have an element of toxicity to them... we don't need to run every time...but learn to manage our reaction to them. Sometimes no reaction is the best reaction.

“I don’t need to change them in order for me to feel ok.” This one really hit me. ❤

"Don't give rental space to others in your head that don't belong to be there in the first place"!

[admirbarucija]

This is such a crucial thing to learn!! Letting other people dictate how we feel can be damaging in the long run

I have been dealing with extremely challenging people for almost 70 years. I need a break.
I will gladly remove myself from their presence. I am not interested in learning anything. At my age, I shouldn't have to dodge or analyze other people's BS.

[jennalynn]

As an empathy and a very highly sensitive person, this is something I struggle daily with. It does have to be just words it can be energy that is overwhelming 🙏🧘🏻‍♀️💗😇

[sussannekeith]

Some people will never be accountable for their thoughtlessness or arrogance.. they are often weak and insecure... no you don't need to react to them.. they feed off it.

[carolynbridgeman]

I am a world traveler. I encounter plenty of challenging experiences. I actually do remove difficult people from my life. I have also closed out my social media accounts. I can't imagine ever being able to completely rid our world of uncomfortable experiences, but I personally don't waste my time and energy in useless emotional combat. My family alone gives me more than enough triggering experiences. I even limit my time with them. I do examine my feelings and reactions, but I also don't feel the need to immerse myself in other people's crap.

DING! DING! Childhood bullying. Lots of wounds + being highly sensitive.

[LonjeMarie]

I’m growing just by getting Away from extremely difficult toxic narcissistic people

[PushPastParalysis]

The control thing is huge for me. Around very angry people who try to control others.

[jismbabe]

When ppl try to distract me with their negative energy I give them a blank look and follow my path. I control what gets my attention. ☺️💝

[tranquilgardens]

People telling me or others what to do...? When they have no business doing so, drives me up the wall The ones telling others what they "should" do or not do

[irishsingersongwritertessp]

That’s a great quote. A situation doesn’t go from bad to worse, it goes from bad to managed”. Very good.

[paulaclemons]

This was on point for me. My triggers are someone trying to control me. I've learned this come from being raped and molested by family members when I was young. So now that I'm older I will not accept anyone to control anything about me.

[ranaeid]

Sometimes you can't remove the negative and bad people. However, you can control your thoughts and actions towards them. I can choose to ignore them. I can also choose to do things that keep my mind off the situation.

[elisamolina]

I love that you said that difficult people is part of our growing. Sometimes it isn't possible to get away from difficult people.
