LEARNING TO “LET THEM” …. SET YOURSELF FREE
I was given a book by Mel Robbins a couple of months ago, called LET THEM. I have to say…. it’s been one of the most liberating messages I’ve ever come across. I’m not even through the entire book, but it’s already having such an impact on how I think and feel, and how I’m responding to the world around me. No kidding!!
For most of my life, I’ve cared way too much about what other people think. I’ve worried if someone misunderstood me, replaying conversations in my head wondering if I said something wrong, and letting other people’s opinions and judgments affect me. And honestly? I’ve known it’s all ridiculous, but have such a tendency to go there. That kind of worry is exhausting. I’ve wondered if that way of thinking, could be part of the reason for my migraines? It truly has the ability to take over your life!
Mel Robbin’s philosophy is so simple…… LET THEM. Let them think what they want. And let them walk away. What about let them behave however they choose? Let them criticize, gossip, roll their eyes at me. LET THEM! Their actions are not a reflection of me! They are a reflection of them! By learning to stop trying to manage everyone else’s perceptions, I free up so much energy to live my life WITH JOY, CONFIDENCE, and CLARITY!
Since starting this book, I’ve noticed a real shift in my mindset. Instead of feeling stressed out about what someone said to me, I’m leaning into trust…. trusting myself and my values. It’s incredibly liberating!!! Part of what she says is that YOU need to be proud of the life you are living, and of your intentions and actions. Integrity has always been important to me, and I know that God knows where my heart has been. I need to trust that more, and be okay with everything else!
