'Why did that person offend me?'

Wrong question.

Ask yourself 'why did I allow it to bother me?'

You'll get more insight into your internal world by asking the second question.

'Why do I get more insight with the second question?'

Because now you are bringing the focus back on yourself.

There is a reason that you're getting offended & it's time to find out why.

Let me ask you something.....👀👇

If I were to call you an alien as an insult, would you get offended?

'No.'

Why?

'Because I know it's not true.'

So why do you get offended when someone calls you a loser?

'Uh...'

Exactly.

You get offended because you have some self doubts about yourself at times.

Maybe not in front of other people, but during your alone time.

Which is why being called a loser gets under your skin.

Asking the second question from the initial tweet forces you to come to terms with your insecurities.

Which is why you should view getting offended as signs for introspection rather than an opportunity to lash out.

Lashing out is easy, which is why most people do it.

Coming to terms with certain insecurities is hard as fuck, which is why most people run away from it.

But guess what?

'What?'

You need to become immune to the words of others.

If you know it's not true, let them think whatever they want to think.

And if you lowkey know there is some truth to their harsh words, then show some courage & face that truth!

But throwing a hissyfit gets you nowhere.

'Yea you're right. Getting offended by everything is very draining.'

It is.

Remember the famous mantra grasshopper:

'The thicker the skin, the less the stress.'

With that being said, the next time you're offended, be less angry & more curious!

Guarantee this little mental flip will alter your reality.

You my friend, are turning a negative situation into a great opportunity for growth.

Now go!

Give this a try & watch your tension melt & peace 🚀🚀
