When you kindly help others, you get endless requests; when you soften your heart and sympathize with others, you get countless hurts; when you treat others sincerely, you get cruel deception.
No one wants to be bullied at all times, no one wants to become a fish on the chopping board, and no one wants to be a soft persimmon and be kneaded.
Even if you don’t want to believe it, society is sometimes so cold, and people’s hearts are sometimes so cold. Therefore, only by keeping the following 3 sentences in mind can you protect yourself and avoid being bullied.
01 retain strength, learn to show weakness
When you are too strong and don’t know how to restrain yourself, you may not have too many friends and will be envied by others; when you know how to hide your strength and learn to show weakness, you can often show a kind of affinity that makes people unconsciously approach.
But there is one thing to remember: showing weakness is not powerless, but making the right choice in the right occasion; showing weakness is not because of poor strength, but because of retaining strength; showing weakness is not just tolerating compromise, but for a better future.
Therefore, it is important to learn to show weakness in time. When you lower your posture appropriately and show weakness to others, isn’t this a great wisdom?
02 Firmly stand, keep the bottom line
When you are too kind, have no bottom line, and want to help others with everything, others may not be grateful, but will look down on you; when you know how to stick to the bottom line and have a firm stand, you will live a relaxed life and others will respect you.
But remember that your bottom line cannot be set too low, so that it will lose its meaning. For those who don’t want to help, learn to refuse; for things that cross the bottom line, never do them; for things that violate your position, don’t agree.
Therefore, it is important to keep your own bottom line. When you dare to say no and firm your principles, you will maintain your dignity.
03 Break comfort and break through yourself
When you live in your own comfort zone and stop moving forward, your current state will basically not change; when you jump out of your comfort zone, you may meet more like-minded people.
But remember one sentence: "Those who are close to red are red, and those who are close to ink are black." Walking out of the comfort zone is to stay away from those who bully you, not to go to another abyss; it is to meet people like you; it is to make yourself a strong person.
Therefore, it is important to jump out of the comfort zone. When you bravely break through the status quo and improve your strength, you can become a better person.
