Last message was the best. Your value does not decrease because of someone's inability to see your worth. Keep going!
-
There should be a class in school where we just watch Ted talks all day.
-
"Whatever they do or say, you'll always keep your value." The best sentence I've ever heard today
-
I was a former security guard, and I've learnt what he learned as a referee... When people are being rude, it's not me, it's my security company clothes.
-
All the dislikes are from people who took this TED talk personally
-
My mom sent me this, I think it's some sort of personal attack
-
This is so me. My life is so miserable because of my thoughts. I am too much concerned about other people's opinions about me. Even if they don't talk about me, there are a lot of thoughts in my mind .Thank you for this talk. I am going to work on this .

last sentence made me cry. We don’t want to show we are vulnerable just to protect our ego. But actually no matter how hurt you are mentally, you are still you, you still has the same exact value

“People may attack you, criticise you, or ignore you. They can crumple you up with their words, spit you out, or even walk all over you. But remember, whatever they do or say, you will always keep your value.”

When you are confident in life and when you understand your flaws and strengths. No criticism will bother you, no appreciation will make you excited. You become free of the influence that other people have on you.

For someone like me who's been attacked by cold people including many of my classmates,people who I use to call friends,relatives and even parents,who's always treated me bad,ignored and made me feel left out all my life,I know all of these feelings very very well and when I chose to become vulnerable and people still don't understand me and instead makes me feel like my struggle's nothing, your words"Keep your value up" made my day!!Thank you!♥️

"Do u want to be right or do u want to be happy?" Best sentence!!!
-
YouTube : recommends that Me : taking it personally
-
I was extremely sensitive and found the book "the four agreements" very helpful. It's a 33 page book and enough to make your life happy
-
Thank you for reminding us that we're doing just fine. That we are not accountable for people's words and that we don't need unnecessary people's validation.
-
He really didnt take it personally, in presenting to such a Dull audience. Bravo sir, you proved your point
-
A very wise woman once said "people dont do things TO us, they do things FOR themselves"
-
"People may attack you,criticize you or ignore you...but remember whatever they do or say but you will always keep your value 🙌"

I think people take things personally because we all want to feel loved and respected and when people dont act in a way you expect its hurtful. Its very normal to want to understand everyone 😊 I work in a call centre and i speak to alot of people who talk over me, shout at me, insult me and are just so rude but its a reflection of them not me but its an interesting job because it reveals how many of us arent perfect in this world and everyone gets snappy sometimes
