When I was swimming in the Rhine recently and a motorboat passing me at some distance caused considerable waves, I had great difficulty keeping my bearings while crawling. The ups and downs of the waves confused my sense of direction and I could no longer rely on it exclusively, but had to look up much more often to see which way I was swimming. I have experienced the same thing in my professional environment: you get a lot of negative feedback that it goes in the direction of bullying and then you start to doubt yourself and your competences - although this would not be appropriate at all. So we are very impressionable. A remedy for orientation difficulties is a distant goal, a so-called landmark. This is sufficiently far away and fixed. If you look at it and use it as a target, you can adjust your own path at any time. In other words, a navigation aid. What landmarks help you in life when the waves are high?
I wish you an extraordinary day!
