In life we face conflicts, disagreements and sometimes our interests clash with that of others.
Conflicts are bound to happen in all stages of life. Especially with friends, colleagues, siblings even strangers.
A mere stranger who barely knows you might just trigger your other side, by laying an insult on you.
In relationships, most times our beliefs and interest seems to clash, which unavoidably leads to conflict. There are situations where the man would be reduced to nothing, just because he felt it was a bad idea for his babe to take that job. But because we have mouths that can talk, the lady will in turn make statements that will put him off.
Your colleague at work feels he's 100% better than you, so as much you try, you end up being his ridicule . He throws sarcastic jokes at you, just because you found yourself under the same roof with him.
These are the issues in life. We've all been insulted in places where we do not expect, and even from persons we held in high esteem.
At that moment, what seems to be your response?
Do you just stay calm and let the barking dog bark, or you boldly give them clap backs.
Clap backs are sharp responses to offensive or negative words or attitude. It might not necessarily be an insult thrown right back to the person portraying the negativity. It may just be words that suite the situation. Not everyone has the threshold to tolerate bad vibes. I literally have zero tolerance.
People spread bad vibes and how you respond to it matters a lot.
Its best you choose the response that stands like a seal that will stand the test of time on whoever that spreads the negativity.
Be it calmness or responses in words, make sure it counts.
Sitting calm or staying mute, I must say can't be very reliable but it works for most people especially the Phlegmatics and melancholics.
What if am a Sanguine or any other temperament and i attach emotions to things, of which i can't deal with. I end up responding with a clap back. I'll pour it all out because i can't take the madness displayed in front of me
Now there are certain persons in life that has been marked off as bullies in this life. What they live for is to torment others and they derive maximum joy from it. They do it often because they are so insecure about their own life, but in a way to cover up the become bullies. I am not talking about children bullies(that's a talk for another day), i am talking about life(adult) bullies. Yes they exist.
They are bent on making life miserable for others, they are everywhere at every given time. Just there to spread bad vibes.
Never let any one treat you like you're worthless, be it in words(insults) or actions (bad vibes).
Yes they are bullies on the outside but scared little puppies on the inside.
Let your response be epic, not to harm the other fellow but to prove a point that we are all humans, and what you give is what you receive.
Let's learn to appreciate others, do not be a bully to anyone. Because at the end of the day life's too small, and its a small world. Remember what goes around comes back around.
Bless Up People!!!!!!
