Recently my wife was chatting with a friend. The friend had a successful career, but felt discouragd. She was not sure why, so she spent some time with a therapist. It was expensive, but helpful. What did she learn?<\/p>\n
She realised that she was afraid of being disliked, and when she thought people disliked her, it made her feel awful.<\/p>\n
But then she had a breakthrough realisation: \u201cApproximately one in five people won\u2019t like me, for no particular reason. And that\u2019s okay!\u201d<\/p>\n
I have the same experience. Sometimes, when I meet someone at a social gathering, or if I\u2019m on an expedition and I ask for advice, about one in five people are not very friendly.<\/p>\n
I do not know the reason\u2013 maybe I remind them of someone they don\u2019t like, or maybe they\u2019re just having a bad day! But that\u2019s okay. That\u2019s life. \u201c<\/p>\n
Approximately one in five people won\u2019t like you, for no particular reason. And that\u2019s okay!\u201d<\/p>\n
If you remembered this insight, would it be helpful next time you get snubbed?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
