How to stop taking things personally:
1. Realise – That other people’s rudeness is not about you. When someone is
rude, it’s likely to be a reflection of their own issues.
2. Ask yourself - what else the comment or behavior might mean. For example,
if someone doesn’t smile or say hello, they might be shy.
3. Take comments – or criticism in a constructive way. Ask yourself if
there is any truth to it and what you may be able to learn.
4. Take a different perspective – ask yourself how an unbiased outsider
would see the situation
5. Realise – that you can’t please everybody.
6. Know - that you’re not defined by your mistakes or criticism.
7. Realise - that your self-worth depends on you. It does not depend on what
others say about you.
