5 things we don't have to do

Blog:191-14th Date :October 27,2022 Time :05:30pm There are some happenings that we can't control our reactions or feelings into it. Anyway, this article is based on @Amazing-grace article written 5 months ago entitled Things you don't have to do. https://read.cash/@Amazing-grace/things-you-dont-have-to-do-f93aabc3 **React to every comment/situation** Since I am the kind of person who doesn't care about what other people will say so I guess it will be safer that way coz I will not be hurt easily. Anyway about reacting to every situation I tried to practice this coz usually I don't think what I say or do in a situation sometimes and ended up in trouble. So I guess I had to practice thoughtful responses and avoid hasty reactions. I had to manage my emotions balanced with facts. I have to practice the pause and breathing before reacting to a situation. I have to consider the consequences of my actions. **Hold grudges** I will admit I am the kind of person who tends to hold grudges. Not totally that I will hate you but once you do something bad or say something not good about me then don't expect me to be the same person you know at first. I will just pretend that we don't know each other or I can like civil but we can't be close or friends anymore. **Change yourself to please others** Never change yourself just to please other people, if their real then they will accept you the way you are. We don't have to pretend just other people will like us. If you don't like my attitude then be it. Like sabi nga ni hubby maot daw ko ug batasan (like what hubby said I have a nasty attitude) then I told him who told you that I have a good attitude? Anyway, I don't have to explain myself to people who don't really know the real me. **Stay Perfect** No one is perfect. We all have weaknesses and limitations. Some can't be fixed**.** We just need someone who can accept us perfectly. I admit I have lots of flaws but at least I am what I am and I don't need to strive to be perfect. **Solve everyone's problem** This is one of the lessons I learn from someone that you can't solve everyone's problem especially if you can't even solve your problem. Just like for example I was trying to help my family financially even if I am also financially unstable. I have to save myself first I mean I have to solve my own problem first before trying to extend help to others. **Ending thoughts** I am not perfect yet I am trying to be a good person and a better version of myself. I am happy that I was able to control how to react in every situation to avoid trouble. As they say, life is 10 percent of what happens and 90 on how you react to it. `Photos used in this article are all owned by yours truly unless it is stated`. `Lead Image and thumbnail edited using Canva` `To my ever-dearest daily readers, upvoters, and likers. thank you for your precious time and for your efforts.
