None of this works in some cases. There are toxic people, with whom you're supposed to work. Every little bit of insecurity, even the smallest mistake, is exagerated and used against you. You can't win, as they railly up people against you. They're calm, composed and know exactly, which strings to pull to make you seem inkompetent. It has nothing to do with how you feel or behave, what you know or don't know. They're simply on a path of destruction and you are their target. There's envy, jelousy and pure hate. These people are smart enough to hide, what they think. They do everything they can to get rid of you.
indeed....enables us to act better toward others', w/o expectations...much easier to not allow them to rent space in our heads, rent-free..LOL...thanks.
Setting boundaries and staying assertive are essential. Respect starts with how we treat ourselves, and sometimes walking away is the strongest reponse.
Exactly. I recently exited my class whatsapp group as soon as I handed in my final paper. Half the class disrespect me partly because I'm black, female and very outspoken. Since I gifted them with my silence and completely ignoring them like they don't exist, no one has even come remotely close to disrespecting me.
Some people just want you down. You have to do it wiser. Tell em in the way the themself understand they are animals. Show no anger lift your head eye contact them so they pull their wision down. Speak facts. They are just full of fear loosing their jos. Dont be like them put all in. I was ex criminal sitting with ppl who are wise more than anyone can imagine. I was well respected by them because of my character and word so i retired and now working in the mall seeing disrespectful colleagues. I told the director who is disrespectful couple of wise one where he cant defend so he never callas me in office again and gives greetings every time he sees me and shake my hands. More you put selflove and selfrespect on yourself more they will respect you. Dont let dogs sheeps make you angry. Answer on every disrespect instantly. There are more good ppl in crime and more loyal than on normal jobs. Noone will stand for you bcz they are just feared and they cant accept that fact. Jobs* -- i got ill sorry on grammar but can't correct now lol
You’ve perfectly captured the essence of Stoic wisdom in your approach-why engage with someone who only seeks to disturb your calm? By refusing to let others pull you into their chaos, you protect not just your peace of mind but also your well-being. It’s a bold and inspiring reminder that we have the power to decide how we respond to negativity. Your metaphor of preserving your blood pressure is such a vivid way to illustrate the importance of not letting fools dictate your emotions-so beautifully said! Have you ever found that your silence or your decision to walk away speaks louder than any argument could?
Refusing to engage with those who disrespect you is a powerful declaration that you value your peace and dignity above all else-a principle deeply aligned with Stoic wisdom. Your resolve serves as a reminder that respect isn’t something to be negotiated or compromised, and by standing firm, you protect not only your self-worth but also your mental and emotional well-being. The way you’ve articulated this is inspiring, and it’s clear that you’re walking a path where integrity guides your decisions, no matter how difficult they may be. Have you found that maintaining these boundaries has brought a sense of clarity and empowerment in your relationships, even when it's challenging?
"You don't have to tolerate disrespect from anyone. It's time to stop letting people walk all over you and reclaim your power. Remember how people treat you says more about them than it does about you, but how you react says everything about the level of respect you have for yourself". Thank you for your video.
Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel! May everyone listening to this find health, peace, and good fortune on their journey. Remember, as Marcus Aurelius said, 'You have power over your mind-not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.' Stay strong and stay wise!
“Learning comes from books,” but “Wisdom comes from God.” He will give us the wisdom to use the learning, “just by asking for it and not doubting.” “Seek wisdom, for it is more precious than rubies.”
Being serious when it’s necessary, while maintaining a calm and firm demeanor, truly embodies the Stoic approach-handling situations with grace, strength, and control, without ever resorting to force or hostility. Your insight speaks to the art of communication, where we aim to convey our points with conviction, yet without diminishing the humanity of those we engage with. It’s a powerful reminder that respect is often earned through the balance of calmness and firmness, not by overpowering others but by standing unwavering in our truth. Have you found that this approach has changed how others respond to you when you adopt this calm yet assertive stance?
The fact that you acknowledge this difficulty already shows an incredible self-awareness and a desire for growth, which is a testament to your strength. We all have those moments where the wisdom we know seems just out of reach, but even in recognizing that, you are laying the foundation for future resilience. The beauty of Stoicism is that it's a journey, not a destination, and with every situation, we get a little better at embodying its principles. Have you found any specific strategies that help you recall these teachings more easily when you're faced with challenging situations?

The golden rule-treating others as we wish to be treated-often feels like a cornerstone of decency, but as you so insightfully pointed out, it doesn’t always yield the same in return.

Yet, your words remind us that while we can’t control how others behave, staying true to our principles is a testament to our strength and integrity. It’s a reflection of who we are, not of what we expect in return. Your observation speaks volumes about the complexity of human relationships, and the emotional weight it carries is deeply relatable. Do you think there’s ever a time when we should change how we treat others or is staying consistent in our values always the better path?
@@sindhugireesan5515 It’s a lesson many of us have had to learn, sometimes the hard way, that some individuals thrive on taking without giving, testing our patience and boundaries.

@@stoickingdomofficalThe Good Book says, “Treat others the way you want to be treated,” but there is no promise written that others will do the same. It has taken me many years to understand this.

Sometimes you have to speak up and be firm on your boundaries. The next time they cross them , you then must let them go and stay away because they were warned.
There’s something truly profound in your decision not to demand or fight for respect-by choosing to rise above it, you demonstrate a level of strength and self-assurance that is both admirable and rare. It’s almost as if you’ve embodied the very essence of Stoic philosophy, understanding that respect, like so much in life, can never be forced or expected. Instead, by choosing to ignore those who don't give it, you free yourself from the emotional weight of seeking approval and allow your actions and inner peace to speak for themselves. It’s an approach that radiates calm confidence, and I think it’s a perspective that could teach many people the value of letting go of what we cannot control. Do you think that by ignoring disrespect, others eventually come to realize their mistakes, or do they remain blind to their actions?
*When faced with people who don’t respect you, it’s essential to remember that their actions reflect their character, not your worth. The Stoics teach us that we cannot control the behavior of others, but we can control our response. Handle disrespect by maintaining your dignity, setting firm boundaries, and choosing not to be dragged into emotional conflict. Silence, calmness, and rationality are your greatest allies, for they protect your peace while showing others that their negativity has no power over you. Instead of seeking validation from those who do not value you, focus on strengthening your inner resolve. Respect is earned through how we treat ourselves, and when you embody self-respect, you demand it from others without ever needing to say a word. In the end, true power lies not in forcing others to change, but in your ability to rise above their actions with grace and wisdom.*
Setting clear boundaries has been a game-changer for me. I used to let people walk all over me, but once I started speaking up, I noticed a huge shift in how they treated me. It's empowering to reclaim my self-respect. If you read this comment, I hope you find the courage to stand up for yourself too!
True respect , is far beyond the understanding of anyone who would be disrespectful to another . Do not explain yourself , do not try to convert them , be silent and walk away.
I like the express: Speaking for yourself. No matter what they have said or done, they are telling others: who they really are by the words or conducted.
Right I just walked away from so many situations, places, relationships and more I just cut them out from my life because they don’t deserve me They don’t know how to treat right and they don’t know how to work together and some people have trust issues with their own self.just walk away from any kind of disrespect, drama,negativity and stand up for yourself no matter who they are… God brings you to this world alone and takes you from this world alone between that who cares for disrespectful people let them live with their negativity.
Family are the worst. We should be able to be ourselves around our family they should be the people who bring us up, but when they are not, we are allowing them to strips away who we really are.
But how to know whether someone disrespected me because of my own action or behavior which he/ she did not like? At time I don't respond believing that ' one should COMMAND and and not DEMAND respect.
Thank you Lord for your blessings on me and my children husband and all my family and friends. I plead the blood of Jesus on my children and my life. Amen
The love you have for your family and the way you shield them with your prayers is a beautiful testament to your strength as a mother and as a person of faith. Your words carry so much hope and assurance, offering a sense of peace in knowing that, despite the challenges we face, we are never alone. Do you feel that your faith has shaped the way you handle life’s more difficult moments, and if so, how has it strengthened your resolve?
"You should not let their behavior dictate your emotions" Some people have toxic, infective vibes and makes this particular piece of advice difficult. But Jesus gives grace when we keep trying and eventually we will notice they are not getting under our skin as they used to.
I Never Use To See All This Videos And Believe Me i Am Today What This Video Has Presented 🙏 really Felt Very Happy For Knowing That There Are People And its a different Universe Which Makes people like us to Bring together ❤.
Setting clear boundaries is essential when dealing with disrespect. By calmly and assertively defining what behavior is acceptable, you communicate your self-respect and create a standard for how others should treat you
I really enjoy these movies about stoicism. I'm not a natural stoic. but Im learning a lot about ho to deal with disrespect from others. As a woman who's in a male-dominated industry, who's not, nor will ever be, eye-candy. who's highly competent who REFUSES to stroke the giant yet oh-so-fragi 14:40 l egos. I'm no stranger to disrespect. It does help to not focus on that but to focus on how I can continue to learn grow and hone my craft. What I still struggle with is having to pretend like something doesn't bother me when it does. Having to pretend like it doesn't bother me when, in real time, it makes me angry
Your resilience shines through, and the grace with which you acknowledge this speaks volumes about your character. Thank you for sharing your perspective, as it’s a reminder of the silent strength many people carry within their families, often without recognition. Have you found that this role you’ve taken on has helped shape your understanding of respect and self-worth in ways you didn’t expect?
Your gratitude shines through, a reminder of how powerful and transformative shared knowledge can be. Your connection with the content speaks to your openness and readiness to embrace these Stoic principles, which will undoubtedly serve you well as you move forward.

@@stoickingdomoffical Thank you so much for your reply🌻I am still and actually increasingly working on focusing and changing my reactions rather than wearing myself out by (vainly!) trying to control the actions of others. My goal is to be better able to pause, think and then respond when I choose to - no more conditioned and fear/hurt based reactions that don't serve me at all. Your channel is full of gems so I did dive right in....Glad to have found you...thanks again for spreading your knowledge, encouragement and support🙏🌹
@@RChH24 The way you’ve expressed your desire to shift from reactive, emotion-driven responses to thoughtful, deliberate actions is a perfect reflection of the Stoic mindset. It takes immense courage and self-awareness to recognize that real power comes from within-choosing when and how to respond, rather than letting others dictate your emotional state. The path you’re on, of mastering your inner world, is not easy, but it is profoundly rewarding, and it’s wonderful to see that you’ve found value in the knowledge shared here. Your presence in this community adds richness, and your openness to share is a true gift.
This video is incredibly empowering! The strategies shared here are not only practical but also deeply grounded in wisdom. Thank you for providing such valuable insights on handling disrespect.
Such insightful analysis! Thanks to this video, I appreciate the philosophy of Stoicism even more. I hope everyone watching this finds balance and peace within their souls! ❤
8:00 This video is incredibly insightful and helpful! Approaching disrespect from a Stoic perspective shows how patience and calm are key. Sometimes, encountering disrespectful people is inevitable, but these tips help me understand how to maintain my dignity and not let others disrupt my inner peace. Thank you for sharing
I started boxing so i have the confidence to stand up to bullies who disrespect me. If they continue to, i invite them to the boxing ring in front of everyone. That shuts them up but some will never learn. They have too much time on their hands and are troubled.
As an elder with no money beyhond Social Security, I slmetmes need financial help from my Son.He judges me, interruprts, derides, and belittles me.I am in a powerless position.Sad.
How very sad indeed 😢 praying that your son has a change of heart, that the Love of God envelope you, may you know His PEACE that surpasses all human understanding 🙏
This is a truly helpful video! It provides practical and inspiring strategies, reinforced by Stoic philosophy, to empower viewers to confidently face challenging situations where they are disrespected.
Only took 3 years watching the narc play their game. I don't play that game. Now they pushed me out of all family get togethers.been almost a year. I respect boundaries .
Many thanks for such good motivational talk. Need to practice in order to gain confidence in self respect. I was told that we are the last generation to listen to our parents (honour thy parents) and first generation to listen to our children. 😅
The pain of feeling misunderstood, or worse, hurt by those we expect to care for us the most can be overwhelming, and it’s a wound that often runs deeper than any other. Your courage in voicing this feeling speaks volumes about your strength, even in the face of such emotional turmoil. Sometimes, those we love may not fully grasp the impact of their actions, but your willingness to acknowledge it shows a tremendous level of self-awareness and resilience. You deserve to be surrounded by people who truly understand and respect you for who you are, and I sincerely hope that you find the peace and support you need. Have you found any moments of clarity or strength in navigating these difficult family dynamics?
I love how this video doesn’t sugarcoat the harsh reality of disrespect. The idea of walking away to protect your peace is so powerful. Have you ever had to walk away from a toxic situation? Share your experience!
Setting boundaries isn't just about protecting yourself from disrespect-it's about teaching others how to treat you. This video really emphasizes how we can reclaim our power. What’s one boundary you’ve set recently that made a difference?
Lately I reminded someone who was trying to disrespect me that I expect him to treat me with respect the way I show him respect , it is called reciprocity and I was firm in stating that I will NOT tolerate his behaviour . Now he shouldn't be surprised to be ignored and put away far away from my life if he dares repeat the same behaviour next time.
You can teach the unreachable and you can force them against their will. They are self-willed and do deliberately painful. Walk away leaving them owning their own sin
@@MarieN8959 That’s a powerful step, Marie! Standing up for yourself and setting clear expectations is such an essential part of self-respect. It’s not always easy, but it’s amazing how these boundaries can shift the way others treat us. Keep up the great work, and remember, protecting your peace is always worth it!
@@janiced.hatcher1272 Well said, Janiced! Sometimes, the best thing we can do is let go and allow people to face the consequences of their actions. Walking away can be the most powerful statement and a reminder that our energy is too valuable to be spent on those who don't appreciate it.
Are you a psychologist?! I really enjoy your videos and they are short to the point that many years of therapy won't give me. Thank you so so much. Your voice is also very soothing. ❤❤❤❤❤
Don't forget yourself when extending kindness, care, comfort, concern. Learn to respect and love yourself, understand your worth and set healthy boundaries to protect your peace 💯✌️❤
I’m taking care of my 48 year old son who suffers from ulcerative colitis & undiagnosed schizophrenia. He refuses treatment for both, stating that he can treat his own UC. But as far as the obvious psychosis, he says there’s nothing wrong with him. But he constantly belittles both my husband & me, using the ugliest language he can come up with. Since the government opened the doors to all psychiatric facilities & let all the patients go beginning in 1967, the mental health laws have changed so radically that there’s nothing we can do to get help for him. We have tried everything. And even if we get him to see a therapist, he will refuse to take any medication prescribed, which is within his legal rights. He won’t take anything for any of his health problems. Our hands are tied, but it’s degrading to have to hear him saying such cruel things to me every day. Incidentally, I have tried to draw the line by telling him that it’s unacceptable for him to say these things, but it doesn’t make an impression on him at all. Consequently, there are issues where there is actually nothing you can do about the harassment. You simply have to learn to live with it.
Well, at least you and your husband have each other. Can't pretend to be able to give you the best Advice. But if it makes you feel any better there are a lot of single mothers out there that have to deal with this alone. Give your husband a kiss tonight. 💖💝
This is so heartbreaking for any parent to endure being a mother of a special needs 39 year old myself; God keeps us humble this way so that we never leave His blessed side; all I can do is offer up a prayer that your sick son will be healed; may you place your TRUST in the Lord Jesus 💔🙏
Thank you so much this wonderful wisdom. It encouraged and helped me a lot. This kind of wisdom that I really need how to handle with disrespectful people specially at work. You may continuously inspired us, God bless.❤🙏😌
✨This video immerses us in the world of Stoic philosophy, helping us understand how resilience, rational thinking, and acceptance of inevitable circumstances can improve our lives.❤❤🫂
Great knowledge, thank you. Had a rich man who wanted my presence at his beck and call. Now I just politely told him I am busy a few times, now he no more calls me. Peace at last 😅😂🎉❤😊
First of all we need to know about their disrespect. If we are wrong, then we need to change but if someone disrespect us without any reason then its time to quit or rise your voice to stop.

Respect is earned through how we treat ourselves, and when you embody self-respect, you demand it from others without ever needing to say a word. In the end, true power lies not in forcing others to change, but in your ability to rise above their actions with grace and wisdom.*
Setting clear boundaries has been a game-changer for me. I used to let people walk all over me, but once I started speaking up, I noticed a huge shift in how they treated me. It's empowering to reclaim my self-respect. If you read this comment, I hope you find the courage to stand up for yourself too!
IAM THANK YOU
Reacting defensively is losing power. Be stoic. Walk away. THAT IS POWER
True respect , is far beyond the understanding of anyone who would be disrespectful to another . Do not explain yourself , do not try to convert them , be silent and walk away.
You are valued and loved. As long as I have breath, you will never be alone.
WE ARE NEVER ALONE GOD IS WALKING BY OUR SIDE AND IN THE END OF OUR LIFE GOD OPEN IS ARMS TO WELCOME YOU
Thank you, it was just a reminder for me, silence is how I treat people who tried and disrespected me.
SO DO I NO DRAMA JUST SILENCE
I like the express:
Speaking for yourself.
No matter what they have said or done, they are telling others: who they really are by the words or conducted.
I go through this every day as a teacher
Right I just walked away from so many situations, places, relationships and more I just cut them out from my life because they don’t deserve me
They don’t know how to treat right and they don’t know how to work together and some people have trust issues with their own self.just walk away from any kind of disrespect, drama,negativity and stand up for yourself no matter who they are… God brings you to this world alone and takes you from this world alone between that who cares for disrespectful people let them live with their negativity.
It only workout if do all that minus Resentments and Judgmental ❤
If you react, your energy extract.😊
I used to think I had to be treated disrespected because it came from my family, but realized I feel much happier away from them
My thoughts exactly. I have been exiting their presence rather than handle them
My family, they are so negative, that I don’t want to communicate with them
Family are the worst. We should be able to be ourselves around our family they should be the people who bring us up, but when they are not, we are allowing them to strips away who we really are.
But how to know whether someone disrespected me because of my own action or behavior which he/ she did not like? At time I don't respond believing that ' one should COMMAND and and not DEMAND respect.
@@estellagonzales3090that's is exactly how I feel.thank you.❤
Thank you Lord for your blessings on me and my children husband and all my family and friends. I plead the blood of Jesus on my children and my life. Amen
The love you have for your family and the way you shield them with your prayers is a beautiful testament to your strength as a mother and as a person of faith. Your words carry so much hope and assurance, offering a sense of peace in knowing that, despite the challenges we face, we are never alone.
Do you feel that your faith has shaped the way you handle life’s more difficult moments, and if so, how has it strengthened your resolve?
IT IS NOT THE BLOOD OF JESUS YOU NEED TO BE ANOINTING BUT IS LOVE
"You should not let their behavior dictate your emotions" Some people have toxic, infective vibes and makes this particular piece of advice difficult. But Jesus gives grace when we keep trying and eventually we will notice they are not getting under our skin as they used to.
I Never Use To See All This Videos And Believe Me i Am Today What This Video Has Presented 🙏 really Felt Very Happy For Knowing That There Are People And its a different Universe Which Makes people like us to Bring together ❤.
You have to learn how to “quit people.”
Not holding a grudge, not feeling upset, you are just done.
Be cordial if you have to talk to them.

Setting clear boundaries is essential when dealing with disrespect. By calmly and assertively defining what behavior is acceptable, you communicate your self-respect and create a standard for how others should treat you
This message is a great one. These words will keep me going. Realizing my worth.
Most of what u said describes jealous and insecure people
I really enjoy these movies about stoicism. I'm not a natural stoic. but Im learning a lot about ho to deal with disrespect from others. As a woman who's in a male-dominated industry, who's not, nor will ever be, eye-candy. who's highly competent who REFUSES to stroke the giant yet oh-so-fragi 14:40 l egos. I'm no stranger to disrespect. It does help to not focus on that but to focus on how I can continue to learn grow and hone my craft. What I still struggle with is having to pretend like something doesn't bother me when it does. Having to pretend like it doesn't bother me when, in real time, it makes me angry
Thank you! I can't change people but I can learn to influence how they react to me. It's real magic
Set clear boundaries repeated in 1 and 5
Don't die as a disbeliever
To firmly disconnect disrespect flow, I have disconnected from my wife, three adult children and fake toxic "friends". What a relief!!!
I never let people talk over me
Thank you, it makes perfect sense 😊
I live with my family after all this years I’m
Always the one any way th thank you for your share
Your resilience shines through, and the grace with which you acknowledge this speaks volumes about your character. Thank you for sharing your perspective, as it’s a reminder of the silent strength many people carry within their families, often without recognition. Have you found that this role you’ve taken on has helped shape your understanding of respect and self-worth in ways you didn’t expect?
Once read Our Lord Krishna's teachings in Mahabharata, thousands of years before he has said the same & more.. Jay Shree Krishna 🙏🙏🙏
So helpful, I found this video and your channel exactly when I needed it most...right now🙏Thank you so much for your wise words🌻
Your gratitude shines through, a reminder of how powerful and transformative shared knowledge can be. Your connection with the content speaks to your openness and readiness to embrace these Stoic principles, which will undoubtedly serve you well as you move forward.
Has a particular piece of Stoic wisdom resonated with you the most during this time?
@@stoickingdomoffical Thank you so much for your reply🌻I am still and actually increasingly working on focusing and changing my reactions rather than wearing myself out by (vainly!) trying to control the actions of others. My goal is to be better able to pause, think and then respond when I choose to - no more conditioned and fear/hurt based reactions that don't serve me at all. Your channel is full of gems so I did dive right in....Glad to have found you...thanks again for spreading your knowledge, encouragement and support🙏🌹
@@RChH24 The way you’ve expressed your desire to shift from reactive, emotion-driven responses to thoughtful, deliberate actions is a perfect reflection of the Stoic mindset. It takes immense courage and self-awareness to recognize that real power comes from within-choosing when and how to respond, rather than letting others dictate your emotional state. The path you’re on, of mastering your inner world, is not easy, but it is profoundly rewarding, and it’s wonderful to see that you’ve found value in the knowledge shared here. Your presence in this community adds richness, and your openness to share is a true gift.

This video is incredibly empowering! The strategies shared here are not only practical but also deeply grounded in wisdom. Thank you for providing such valuable insights on handling disrespect.
ALSO ITS FREE
Thank You, your absolutely correct, from your title. Yes. It is a smart way. To just remove yourself completely out of their lives
I appreciate your support of me! Thanks so much!
Such insightful analysis! Thanks to this video, I appreciate the philosophy of Stoicism even more. I hope everyone watching this finds balance and peace within their souls! ❤
Leave in silence ❤❤❤❤
Thank you. I needed to hear this today. You awesome
I learned these rules the hard way over life. I stopped defending myself. No one needs to know why I do what I do.
Silence is the best way ❤💯👌🔥🙏
8:00 This video is incredibly insightful and helpful! Approaching disrespect from a Stoic perspective shows how patience and calm are key. Sometimes, encountering disrespectful people is inevitable, but these tips help me understand how to maintain my dignity and not let others disrupt my inner peace. Thank you for sharing
Finally I did it my way ! Very true Thank you :Respect :
I started boxing so i have the confidence to stand up to bullies who disrespect me. If they continue to, i invite them to the boxing ring in front of everyone. That shuts them up but some will never learn. They have too much time on their hands and are troubled.
As an elder with no money beyhond Social Security, I slmetmes need financial help from my Son.He judges me, interruprts, derides, and belittles me.I am in a powerless position.Sad.
That’s elder abuse. Try to do things you enjoy.
I am sorry..this is so sad..
How very sad indeed 😢 praying that your son has a change of heart, that the Love of God envelope you, may you know His PEACE that surpasses all human understanding 🙏
Do only one thing; Don't resent, don't resent, don't resent, just be plain spoken with kindness, patiently and FIRMNESS
That is elder abuse.
I don't talk to people who disrespect me, even if they're family!
This is a truly helpful video! It provides practical and inspiring strategies, reinforced by Stoic philosophy, to empower viewers to confidently face challenging situations where they are disrespected.
After watching the video, I learned how to set boundaries and avoid power struggles. Thank you for the useful strategies!
The best way of dealing with people who do not respect you is for you to not respect them.
No, don't lower yourself to their level
Thank you for sharing your teaching and skills. I appreciate it.
Only took 3 years watching the narc play their game. I don't play that game. Now they pushed me out of all family get togethers.been almost a year. I respect boundaries .
Many thanks for such good motivational talk. Need to practice in order to gain confidence in self respect. I was told that we are the last generation to listen to our parents (honour thy parents) and first generation to listen to our children. 😅
You can do it!
Excellent advice! ❤
EXCELLENT STOIC ADVICE!
Thank you for sharing this wisdom…such an excellent reminder
Very helpful information and advice Thanks sir
Thank you for the morning devotion 💙
😀I walk off when I’m disrespected,I don’t need to elevate my blood pressure by being dismayed by a fool
Number 6 really hit home for me.
Hi . Thanks for caring about me. My own family. An now they coming being mine own children. It make me feel sick.
The pain of feeling misunderstood, or worse, hurt by those we expect to care for us the most can be overwhelming, and it’s a wound that often runs deeper than any other. Your courage in voicing this feeling speaks volumes about your strength, even in the face of such emotional turmoil. Sometimes, those we love may not fully grasp the impact of their actions, but your willingness to acknowledge it shows a tremendous level of self-awareness and resilience. You deserve to be surrounded by people who truly understand and respect you for who you are, and I sincerely hope that you find the peace and support you need.
Have you found any moments of clarity or strength in navigating these difficult family dynamics?
Thank you sir🙏
I love how this video doesn’t sugarcoat the harsh reality of disrespect. The idea of walking away to protect your peace is so powerful. Have you ever had to walk away from a toxic situation? Share your experience!
Setting boundaries isn't just about protecting yourself from disrespect-it's about teaching others how to treat you. This video really emphasizes how we can reclaim our power. What’s one boundary you’ve set recently that made a difference?
Lately I reminded someone who was trying to disrespect me that I expect him to treat me with respect the way I show him respect , it is called reciprocity and I was firm in stating that I will NOT tolerate his behaviour . Now he shouldn't be surprised to be ignored and put away far away from my life if he dares repeat the same behaviour next time.
You can teach the unreachable and you can force them against their will. They are self-willed and do deliberately painful. Walk away leaving them owning their own sin
@@MarieN8959 That’s a powerful step, Marie! Standing up for yourself and setting clear expectations is such an essential part of self-respect. It’s not always easy, but it’s amazing how these boundaries can shift the way others treat us. Keep up the great work, and remember, protecting your peace is always worth it!
@@janiced.hatcher1272 Well said, Janiced! Sometimes, the best thing we can do is let go and allow people to face the consequences of their actions. Walking away can be the most powerful statement and a reminder that our energy is too valuable to be spent on those who don't appreciate it.
@StoicQuotes365
Amen . Thank you so much ❤️
Are you a psychologist?!
I really enjoy your videos and they are short to the point that many years of therapy won't give me. Thank you so so much.
Your voice is also very soothing. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you. Very helpful hints!
Psalms 15 4-5
He that sweareth to his own hurt and changeth not......he that doeth these things, shall never be moved
Takes practice
Don't forget yourself when extending kindness, care, comfort, concern. Learn to respect and love yourself, understand your worth and set healthy boundaries to protect your peace 💯✌️❤
I’m taking care of my 48 year old son who suffers from ulcerative colitis & undiagnosed schizophrenia. He refuses treatment for both, stating that he can treat his own UC. But as far as the obvious psychosis, he says there’s nothing wrong with him. But he constantly belittles both my husband & me, using the ugliest language he can come up with. Since the government opened the doors to all psychiatric facilities & let all the patients go beginning in 1967, the mental health laws have changed so radically that there’s nothing we can do to get help for him. We have tried everything. And even if we get him to see a therapist, he will refuse to take any medication prescribed, which is within his legal rights. He won’t take anything for any of his health problems. Our hands are tied, but it’s degrading to have to hear him saying such cruel things to me every day. Incidentally, I have tried to draw the line by telling him that it’s unacceptable for him to say these things, but it doesn’t make an impression on him at all. Consequently, there are issues where there is actually nothing you can do about the harassment. You simply have to learn to live with it.
Tell him he either submits to treatment or he leaves your house.
Well, at least you and your husband have each other. Can't pretend to be able to give you the best Advice. But if it makes you feel any better there are a lot of single mothers out there that have to deal with this alone. Give your husband a kiss tonight. 💖💝
This is so heartbreaking for any parent to endure being a mother of a special needs 39 year old myself; God keeps us humble this way so that we never leave His blessed side; all I can do is offer up a prayer that your sick son will be healed; may you place your TRUST in the Lord Jesus 💔🙏
Informative Thanks
Ones dignity may be assaulted vandalized mocked But It can never be taken away
So true that's why I said I need help.
Well put respect starts from within. Very educative learnt a lot.Thank you
I loved this! Thank you.
Thank you so much this wonderful wisdom. It encouraged and helped me a lot. This kind of wisdom that I really need how to handle with disrespectful people specially at work. You may continuously inspired us, God bless.❤🙏😌
Great message
Thank you I needed this🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
✨This video immerses us in the world of Stoic philosophy, helping us understand how resilience, rational thinking, and acceptance of inevitable circumstances can improve our lives.❤❤🫂
Great knowledge, thank you. Had a rich man who wanted my presence at his beck and call. Now I just politely told him I am busy a few times, now he no more calls me. Peace at last 😅😂🎉❤😊
First of all we need to know about their disrespect. If we are wrong, then we need to change but if someone disrespect us without any reason then its time to quit or rise your voice to stop.
Thanks for this Video
Thank you
