Hello everyone! Hope you all are doing good.
This week I'm going to talk about something which I really hate- maybe it is one of my pet peeves you can say- it is when people don’t get back to me about something.
Now, earlier, when I was in my teens or in my undergraduate college, what I would do is- make 100% efforts into planning something or doing something for somebody, only to have them not get back to me or forget to reply about something or they just wouldn’t be as invested in the thing as I was. Which hurt me on and off and I just let people walk all over me.
After a few years, well I started losing trust in people in general. I would directly assume that the person would not follow up with me and expected the worst. Only when someone actually did follow up, I would be ecstatic.
So well, I don’t know if this is healthy as well. Just not trusting people. After a little bit of introspection, I realized that, well you cannot change someone. Nope, you just cannot. And to think otherwise would be really foolish. You cannot have everything in your control. So after a certain point I started to LET GO.
I believe a lot in the law of attraction. I believe that if I really give out the good energy then the right people are eventually going to be attracted to it. And that even applies to the concept of people getting back to me about something. I feel that if I am giving 100% effort or thought to something, then that is enough for me. My happiness or mood doesn’t depend upon someone else.
This has been quite mentally liberating for me and healthy as well.
Do let me know what you guys think?
