Your Inner Peace Will Begin The Day You Don’t Let Yourself Be Manipulated

Our inner peace will begin the same day we don’t allow ourselves to be manipulated. It arises when our emotions cannot be manipulated based on the harmful beliefs and demands of others.

This sense of peace is an exact reflection that we have made the right decision. This is the most obvious sign, thanks to which we will be guaranteed to maintain a mental and physical balance.

So what we should be aiming for is to deal with the expectations we have about ourselves. Avoid reacting to insults and praise, so as not to sin out of anger or vanity .

When we submit to what others expect or look for in us, we are prioritizing others’ options and failing to listen to what we really need.

Therefore, it is essential that we make our own decisions, as only this leap can fill us with peace and generate large doses of courage, responsibility and emotional well-being.

Be selective in your battles

Be selective in your battles, because sometimes having peace is better than being right. Because your inner peace is non-negotiable and depends only on you and your being faithful to your alter ego, the same thing that is revealed when you ask yourself whether or not to surrender to the demands of others.

So even though it’s time to say “Enough!”, we must pay attention to our heart. Once the decision is made to let go of the pressure of the people who want to manipulate us, we will be responsible and we will have to take command  of the ship that guides us to defeat our fears. For this, we must take into account the following:

• Uncertainty is not easy to deal with.
• Every process of change involves some degree of discomfort that we have to tolerate.
• It takes every decision to go hand in hand with integrity.
• It is necessary to know that, when opening a door, different paths may appear that manifest the need to walk more and more paths in the search for our inner peace.
• Leaving behind the people who harm us will always be a positive thing. However, this raises another issue: taking physical and emotional distance. Sometimes just the first one, which might seem like enough, is not possible. So we must do a great inner work.

Those who cultivate inner peace transmit tranquility

Those who cultivate their inner peace transmit tranquility to the rest of the world. Why? Because the mind is like water. When it is calm, it can reflect the beauty of its surroundings. However, when you are agitated, no matter what is in front of you, it will be impossible to reflect anything.

The same happens to us. We cannot educate our children well if we lose moderation along the way. It will also not be possible to live a healthy life or relate well if there is a storm in our minds.

That’s why it’s important to keep in mind that  inner peace is one of the greatest riches anyone can have. This is not to say that we have to patiently endure everything that comes to us to the point where we are unable to do anything but explode. It’s about eliminating external expectations and meeting what we want.

Thus, taking care of what we want to attract and leaving aside what weighs on us, we will reach the inner peace that we long for. Remember that self-love has a limit called dignity and, therefore, we cannot admit that it diminishes us in any way. No one is so important as to justify the bitterness they cause in our lives.
