Is it better to be a high C or a low B? Inquiring minds want to know!
There is an incredibly positive perspective on receiving negative posts on a thread. I know I always short circuited when it came to conflict.. that is if it was centered on me, or something where I felt there'd be disapproval.
Sit and think.. how good were you at handling the following before the bomb dropped.. conflict, a sense of being attacked, not feeling comfortable with a turn of events, someone actively disagreeing with you?
The positive thing is.. you get to chose how you respond. Some folks love to play devil's advocate, stir the pot, take out their frustrations on others or just plain disagree. But here, it's your choice on how you respond or don't.
When I first read the suggestion that you let things roll off you like water on a duck, I figured the folks were crazy. But you know what, it is a neat skill to have. I just hope I can improve my quacking.
