I often get asked on how to manage other people’s behaviour.
Well the answer is: We can’t control other people’s behaviour, but we can control how much space it takes up in our own heads.
Frustration often comes from the gap between what we expect and what actually happens.
The bigger the gap, the bigger the reaction. So instead of trying to fix or change someone else, it can help to gently bring the focus back to yourself:
🔸Pause before reacting , give yourself a moment to respond, not just react
🔸 Check your expectations, were they spoken, or assumed?
🔸 Set clear boundaries, what’s okay for you, and what isn’t?
🔸 Don’t take everything personally,
other people’s behaviour is often about them, not you
🔸 Choose your energy, some things just aren’t worth the drain.
You’re allowed to feel frustrated. Just don’t let someone else’s behaviour dictate your peace.
Protect your energy. It matters more than you think.
