What To Do When People Misunderstand You
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2019
- If you've been living at all, people are going to misunderstand you. You can respond with anger or frustration, but that often makes it worse. Recently, I took some big risks and shared some things that I knew people would misunderstand. But I decided it was worth it. Our goal is not to be held back by what we think other people's reactions will be. If you're hiding out, you can still be criticized, so you might as well jump in. Remember that other people's responses say more about them than they say about you. So respond with grace and kindness.

I’m constantly being misunderstood. I can’t understand it. When I ask a simple question with good intentions, they sometimes falsely assume I’m questioning them. It breaks my heart when they snap or bark in reply. 😢.
Some of us seem to be cursed man, only the people who don't need people seem to understand... Yet they just give pity, that's the last thing I need man! I need some real pointers or direction towards somewhere to belong man, especially as a nature lover in a very pretty yuppie Urban area, it still has nature but seemingly not a real good following except maybe retired people...
Just breaks my heart man, I love my home state of Florida but just doesn't seem to have the right crowds for me perhaps... (And yeah just the way I talk, I know some people tend to get offended/think I'm yelling, let alone tending to lean toward the intellectual inclination, definitely in decline nowadays)
It is okay to be misunderstood. They will understand when their time is right.
I hate it when im talking to someone and they misunderstand what im saying then i overthink it and get anxiety.
Ohh could happen to me as well, I find it somewhat relatable hmm
Same bro
I guess this is where the quote "know your intention" is key. As long as I know my intentions are good, how the other person responds is up to them, and like he said, how the respond says more about them than you think. People are usually the thing they accuse you of so always know your intention 👍🏾
I needed this, Kary. Thank you!
You said once that your biggest secret was you "used to be a pastor." I'll tell you something--You're still a pastor, just in the biblical sense rather than the "Westernized Church" sense. Both Hebrews 13:17 and I Peter 5:2-4 identify pastors not as leaders over a "church" as we would recognize it, but as "shepherds," as those who watch out for people's souls, the way a shepherd watches over his (or her) sheep, caring for them, feeding them, keeping them safe from enemies and pitfalls. You do that for people every day! Never forget that. God bless you and yours.
Wow. I receive that. Thank you friend.
Thank you, I really needed this, I always feel like I’m the problem when no one understands what I communicate to them about how I feel
You're welcome, Eliana.

Don't allow other peoples' reactions to hold you back. Create change!

Always misunderstood with a pure heart tho
Thank you, stranger. Been worried about something :( but i will try to open up about it to the “right” ppl. 🌸
It's never easy when people misunderstand you. The key is to respond with grace and compassion.
I've recently started to speak up about an unfair situation of a country that affects all people under a certain criteria, and surprisingly by trying to make people realize why they are treated like they are, they reacted as if I was attacking them, and trying to defend themselves of being happy with their lives and situations despite the unfair policy they have to go through. Sometimes, I believe people are comfortable living under unfairness, they just conform, and anyone that tries to point out the causes of the issues they face, they feel is a treat to the ideas of the world they've created and that they live in. I don't want to stop speaking up for a cause I believe is fair and that affects this people, but if the affected people don't want to understand the cause of why they face unfairness, or they don't see unfairness as what it is, I feel disappointed and very misunderstood. Because I try to help people, and they feel like I am attacking them, which is completely the opposite, I think they are just scared from hearing the truth, honestly.
Thank for sheering.
Oh my goodness this is sooo true! Thanks for this!
Thank you very much. Your sharing really helped me to go forward. God will bless you more
So sincere. Thank you.
But what is a compassionate or graceful reaction then? When you get judjed based on nothing it still triggers something in you and you're just internalizing 'why does someone think that about me and also say it out loud?' I find it very weird when someone doesn't know you and judge you right away, very sad!
So true!
Thanks friend. Excited about your new book.
Misunderstanding can get someone in be trouble just saying becouse pepole automatically think that the person i talk to on iMessage is a sacmer
