We all have endured painful and disappointing relationships. Where people that we thought had our best interest at heart turned their backs on us or didn’t support us in the way we thought they would. In most instances, we get angry with the person, hold a grudge and for some, allow their words to scar us for life.
But comedian Sheryl Underwood shared a painful story of how she overheard a conversation of her friends talking about her in a negative manner. But instead of getting bitter; she chose to be a big girl and take note to the truth of what they had to say. She implemented the needed changes and advanced in her career.
I love how Underwood chose to take her power back! In a situation where she could have CHOSEN to allow the words of others to tear her down. She chose to allow those very words to build her up! Choose to take your power back in every situation that you encounter. People will attempt to dump their self-doubt, self-hatred and negativity on you. But don’t allow the pain of their words to render you powerless. You have a choice. You can either, pick up their negativity and run with it or leave it where it is with the rest of their junk. The choice is yours. You decide.
Allow Sheryl Underwood’s story to empower you not to get mad but to say in control, learn the lesson and succeed.
Remember You Have the Power!!!!! Make it a great week!
Much success,
Judi
