My book tour is coming to a close with one event left in Phoenix, and I have to say that I\u2019ve fallen in love with being in rooms surrounded by so many amazing people and learning from them as well. As you\u2019ve heard in other episodes, I\u2019ve found new takeaways from each stop \u2013 but so many reoccurring themes as well.\n \xa0\n Another overarching topic is about taking things personally. Getting through this, of course, has a lot to do with mastering our mindset, but it helps to understand what it feels like before you get there.\n \xa0\n Question: If you didn\u2019t take things personally, what could you do in your life? I\u2019ve asked this question at my book tour stops and the answers are endless, but the most common response? \u201cI could be happy.\u201d Whoa!\n \xa0\n You see, when we worry about what other people think we\u2019re putting ourselves in our own form of prison. Don\u2019t stifle your truth just to please someone else. I highly encourage you to ruffle feathers, share your opinions and share who you authentically are at your core.\n \xa0\n \u201cIf you\u2019re not upsetting people, you\u2019re not living in your truth \u2013 you\u2019re living in fear.\u201d\n \xa0\n Be yourself. Stop people pleasing. Make some waves. I know this is a hard thing to do, but it feels SO good. Trust me, I\u2019m a people pleaser through and through, but by sparing other people pain, you\u2019re only adding more pain to your life.\n \xa0\n \u201cFreedom and truth are the opposite of suppression and resentment.\u201d\n \xa0\n Does this mean you\u2019ll never take something personal again? Heck no. It is a constant practice of self-love and you will learn how to release it more quickly. It\u2019s also one of our best teachers in life that helps us develop more compassion and understanding from where other people are coming from.\n \xa0\n So the next time someone offers their opinion and you take it personally, make a conscious effort to release, forgive and move on\u2026and live a happy life.\n \xa0\n --\n In This Episode Lori talks about:\n \xa0\n Why we need to stop taking things personally\n Living authentically and in your truth\n Why it\u2019s an ongoing self-love practice to not take things personally\n \xa0\n Resources:\n \xa0\n Go to ATribeCalledBliss.com to find out the latest on Lori\u2019s book tour and join the world\u2019s biggest tribe book club.\n Join us at the Phoenix book tour stop!
