… by thinking about criticism of my actions and behaviour.
Whenever it was pointed out to me that my reaction was inappropriate or that I acted unreasonably, I did not get upset, or maybe I did😅 yet, I did not get all blocked, instead I thought about the words I was told.
Not about why and how the person said so, but whether it was true and what made me over react or behave the way I did.
It is easy to say: ’I don’t know. It’s just the way I am.’ But defensive behaviour is stagnant, it does not support personal growth. The real flex is to find out and understand why.
Self-reflection and self-evaluation is a powerful tool to unlock and raise emotional intelligence and awareness. High emotional intelligence and self awareness leads to inner peace.
Don’t be scared to know yourself ❤️🍀.
