So, I was browsing online the other day, stumbled upon this phrase, “you stronger with.” It got me thinking, how can I really get stronger, not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too? I decided to give it a go, to see if I could actually make some changes.
Find My Soft Spots
First things first, I had to figure out where I was weak. It’s like, you know, when you’re working out, you gotta know which muscles need more work. For me, it was dealing with criticism and handling stress. Those two things could easily throw me off balance.
- Facing Criticism: I used to get all defensive or just plain sad when someone criticized me.
- Stress Handling: Any little thing could stress me out, and I’d just want to crawl into a hole.
Do Something About It
Once I knew my weak spots, I started working on them. I read some stuff online, you know, the usual self-help articles and all that. But the real deal was actually doing things differently.
When I got some criticism, instead of getting all worked up, I tried to listen. I mean, really listen to what the person was saying. Sometimes, they actually had a point. Other times, it was just their opinion, and I learned to just let it roll off my back.
For stress, I started doing small things like taking breaks, walking around the block, or just closing my eyes and breathing deeply for a few minutes. It sounds simple, but it helped me calm down a lot.
Mess Up, It’s Cool
Of course, I messed up a lot. There were times when I’d totally lose it over some criticism or get super stressed out over nothing. But I realized that’s okay. Everyone makes mistakes, right? It’s part of being human.
The important thing was that I kept trying. I didn’t let those slip-ups get me down. I just picked myself up and tried again.
And you know what? I actually started to feel stronger. I felt more in control of my emotions, and I could handle things better. It wasn’t like a superhero transformation or anything, but I felt more solid, more me.
I kept practicing these things, day in and day out. There were good days and bad days, but I kept at it. I realized that getting stronger isn’t about a quick fix, it’s about making small changes and sticking with them. It’s like building a habit, you know? It takes time and effort, but it’s worth it in the end. I feel better about myself, I can take on more, and I’m not so easily shaken by things that used to bother me before.
So, that’s my story about trying to get stronger with. It’s not rocket science, but it worked for me. Maybe it can work for you too, who knows? Just remember, it’s about finding your own way and sticking with it. Be patient with yourself, and don’t be afraid to mess up along the way. You got this!
