Difficult People
We all have the experience of difficult people in our lives, at one point or another…
We encounter a wide variety of people throughout our lives.
Many of them touch us in positive Wayz, occasionally, however, we encounter those individuals who, for whatever reason, can be difficult to deal with.
Sometimes, it may be possible to avoid those people short term. Dealing with them in the long term, however, can be exhausting.
Breathe….
Avoiding a difficult person can improve impossible and not in your best interest, especially if you live or work together. Likewise, attempts to steer clear of them can become a source of stress and anxiety when they are a part of your social circle.
When this is the case, it is best to kindly address the problem. You also may want to try expressing your feelings directly. Tell to the person how their actions make you feel. Speaking assertively, but respectfully is key..
Another approach for dealing with a difficult individual is to gain a deeper understanding of who that person is.
If approaching them fails, let it go and move on. There is no reason to let a difficult person or situation have power over your state of being.
Remember that a lot can be accomplished when you take the time to listen to yourself & others carefully and offer up alternative perspectives.
