I use this metaphor on every criticism, whether the criticism is justified or not.
I think of it like a tiny person using a hand axe to chop away at a great big redwood. He may get a few chips out, but only if he swings true. If his swings are erroneous, he has wasted his own energy. |

Generally even people who don't appear to be affected by what others say are hurt by words. They just don't show it..we call that "thicked skinned"..That is what you need to develope. Remember people say mean things to get a reaction. If you don't show a reaction then your depriving them of satisfaction. Think of it as a win ,lose situation. If you don't react , you win.. Practice this and after awhile you'll feel a positive glow when people belittle you..you might even smile..WOW won't that piss them off.. |

If I took to heart every time some one has belittled me in my life, my heart would have exploded by now. People who go around belittling people are not worth my time or effort to be too concerned over them. I am what I am and nothing I can do about it, and if they don't like it, they can leave and not let the door hit them in the behind! |

Simple.. Look past the words they use. Look at the person, the way the live their life, their attitude towards their surroundings. You'll see an constant strand of insecurity, which is momentarily broken when they put another down. IF IT WORKS, it's a quick fix, for feeling inferior.Problem for those who do this, is that they often end up feeling even worse, and try to combat it by belittling more. It becomes a vicious cycle of self destruction. |

Know who you are and trust in yourself. You are not a product of what others think of you. If people are not willing to get to know the real you than you should not care what they have to say anyway. Remember people often belittle others because they are insecure and are trying to make themselves feel better. So, when someone puts you down remember they are not showing you what you are but, what they are..insecure and inadequate |

It is very hard not to take to heart what people tell you when they belittle you. I lived with negative programming from the time I was a very little girl, and it affected my self esteem in the worst way. The subconcious mind never sleeps, and receives everything as the truth...and it literally programs the concious mind...and when all one hears is negative, belittling things about oneself, one tends to start thinking those things are true. It hurts a person spiritually, emotionally, mentall, and physically.
Please understand that you are very special, and a very special and unique gift to mankind. (Each human being is a special gift.) When a person belittles you, what they are really doing is trying to make themselves feel better. Perhaps they recognize something in you they dislike about themselves, or are uncomfortable with...or perhaps its the lack of a good character trait within themselves that you exhibit to which they are negatively reacting. Whichever the case may be, and there could be any number of reasons, you owe it to yourself to separate yourself from that kind of negative programing...maybe even from the 'programmer' him/herself. Take a positive approach to you...know that your feelings are on the chopping block because of someone else's insecurities, and determine to choose what type of programming you WILL receive. Stand up for yourself in a positive way. Refuse to be belittled...and if humiliated in front of others, turn that unkindness away from you. Answer it...with kindness, and laughter. Then tell that person in private how you feel...and that you would appreciate not being talked to like that in the future. |

You remember that they belittle you because of their insecurities. You're not the stupid one, they are. It's all just a lame mask they wear so they can hide from themselves. It feels good to belittle people and manipulate them into thinking they're smaller than you. I've done it. |

COACH

Consider the motivation of the person making the comments. Are they hurt and trying to strike back? If so, know that they are angry and trying to affect your mood. They're angry or hurt and thus want to hurt you. The only way they can is if you let them. Imagine how you would completely disarm them if you replied with something like, "I'm sorry you feel that way."
The person must not have much self-esteem or they wouldn't find it necessary to belittle you. If you know that, the person is worthy of your sympathy. Finally, remember they are words only! Is what they're saying true? Probably not and therefore completely insignificant. If so, consider this: there is no perfect person and simply because they were able to find a shortcoming is no grand achievement. You are an incredibly valuable person and they're missing the complete picture. |
