Each individual has their own sensitivity or sensitivity in communicating. Words or words that to other people mean nothing can make us offended. Not to mention when dealing with people who like to talk to themselves, we can feel offended more easily.
In order not to be easily offended, there are several things we can do. Maybe in the process, we need time alone to feel better when communicating. Even so, it never hurts to make a number of efforts that can make us less easily offended or offended by words.
1. Ask Yourself
Launching the meanttobehappy.com page, the reason that usually makes us easily offended is the meaning we attach to our words or speech. For example, when someone says he doesn't like our favorite food, don't assume that person hates us right away. Maybe it's just a matter of personal choice and preference. So, if you feel offended, try asking yourself, "Is it true that he offended me on purpose? Or is it just me?" In this way at least we can see the existing situation with a wider perspective.
2. Understand Everyone Has Their Own Way of Thinking
The contents of our heads and the contents of other people's heads are never the same. Our thoughts and the thoughts of others are definitely different. This also affects the words or actions of each individual. So, there is no need to feel easily offended when what actually happens is a difference of opinion or point of view.
3. If you feel hurt, let it flow
When we feel offended, there is a tendency to dwell on it. We constantly remember the words, words, or actions of the person who offended us. This can be quite excruciating because we feel all kinds of feelings mixed together. If we really feel hurt, accept that feeling. You can grieve so that the hurt feelings can be washed away. So, the heart can be lighter again.
4. Try to accept Imperfection
There are imperfections in every human being. Other people are not perfect, and we are not perfect either. So, try to forgive the imperfections that exist. When we feel offended by other people's words, try to forgive that person because he too has his own shortcomings. And, more importantly, accept yourself completely with all the feelings that surround it.
5. Increase Self-Esteem
Quoting the book How to Respect Myself, to increase self-esteem, one way is to have the courage to accept. Accept that all this time we have suffered from habitual frustrations in the first place. We need to admit first what we really fear. There are times when we need to accept circumstances and fears as they are. Usually we are easily offended for fear of not being able to meet certain expectations. So, it's time to be kind to yourself by loving yourself more.
Hopefully we can maintain and establish better communication with the people around us, yes. Also, thank you for your efforts to improve the quality and ability to communicate better from time to time.
