Nothing others do is because of you. What they say or do is a reflection of their own reality. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.

2/4 Don’t take anything personally.

Here is what I learnt from The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz.

The Four Agreements

Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama.

3/4 Don’t make assumptions.

Your best is going to change from moment to moment. Under any circumstances, simply do your best and you will avoid self-judgement, self-abuse and regret.

4/4 Always do your best.

Speak with integrity, say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of love and truth.

1/4 Be impeccable with your word.
