I think my power of not reacting is trying to silence myself from feeling my emotions in the first place. Telling myself, it could be worse. Your emotions aren’t valid enough. The simple thing to do is just get over it. So I do all I can to fight off the emotion and just ignore it. I do use healthy coping skills though. I’ve taught myself that strong people never cry. Strong people never feel angry. Strong people are always calm and happy and positive. So, my way of self control is to just shut the crying and anger and other emotions off and just ignore them if I feel them coming on, because that’s the way to be rezilliant. I don’t do sugarcoating or the polite thing. I’m direct with myself, as well as others. Being polite and sugarcoating things doesn’t do anything. But if you’re direct, at least this is how I work, then it will get you somewhere. And this is why I tell myself the simple and easy thing to do is to suck it up, shut up and just hurry up and get over it because it could be worse, and your emotions and feelings aren’t valid enough unlike other people’s.

3: 27 This is a very practical use of not reacting. There is a flagpole in our front yard. My brother who is significantly more physically fit than I, couldn't get himself to go up a ladder that was leaning up against the pole for the sake of stringing it. The pole moved as he climbed the ladder and he just couldn't do it. Before our father was able to start to climb the ladder, I stepped in and told him I would do it. He was skeptical to put it mildly. I was able to go all the way up the ladder and string it. I was able to do that because I am aware of my own emotions and chose to not give in to the fear of falling.
Being aware of your emotions is useful in everyday life.

Reacting is one of the best parts of confrontation now how you react is what's important for instance i always react to people that send me comments or in real life if someone is try to argue with me i always have time to explain things and enjoy doing so and love and empathy only help a little if you don't know how to handle a situation properly avoiding conflict sometimes is needed but avoiding conflict as a whole is foolish because what happens when you can't avoid it You'll have no experience in taking care of business so to speak

I don't know why this happens
But both my roommates who are cousins
They occasionally stop talking to me
And than they enjoy laugh do things together I am compelled to believe maybe I do something wrong
Maybe there's something wrong in me
But it's really hard and bit suffocating to stay in a group of three where I am the one left out
I don't know I just don't feel so good
Even if I try. the thing is I have to face this for a year and more
But all is good
all is good babe

I got laid off from my job and I didn’t cry but my other coworker who got laid off did I’m usually a crier but in a professional setting I kept calm. And in this situation I can’t do anything about it anyway. I was just trying to take it all in and process it, HR said I was taking it well just cause I didn’t cry I’m not going to react in a work environment. I also had to comfort my crying coworker too even tho we were in the same situation. Nobody asked me how I was doing.

I'm overjoyed and grateful to see God's blessings and abundance manifest in my family's life. We're thriving and happy once again, and I can now provide for my loved ones even in retirement, thanks to a remarkable weekly income of $67, 000. It's a game-changer after facing many challenges.

Your emotions are YOURS. They are not the fault of someone else. So don't blame others for making you feel things. And don't imagine that you will not feel things. That will just lead to bunkering. It's about controlling ones reactions. It's manipulation of oneself and your surroundings

This was very helpful but i think the examples can tend to minimize the experiences some have that are much much more aggressive, like getting yelled at or insulted or threatened. It might be good to have a video on that as well if you havent already

Please be careful with people that are manipulative. You don't have to understand them or feel empathy. You are entitled to your emotions. Just try to not let negative feelings effect you too much. Don't give those people this power

I have a coping mechanism against work when it gets busy because i have experience when it gets busy in buffets that i always look at it as it will slow down eventually. I don't let the busy of things get under my skin.

A covert and vulnerable narcissist is a master of silent treatment. A pause is fine but silence can be a weapon, really damaging of self-esteem. Not every silence is self-control. Silence can be very manipulative.

I liked the content of this video and its overall message. Also love the new graphics and a calming male voice makes a change, about time there was more gender equality. Way 2 Go, Psych2Go.

I love the Inside Out thumbnail. I used to lose my temper more frequently, but I've since taken up Tai Chi, yoga and meditation, and found that they've helped me become less reactionary.

The point of not reacting is, we can still feel emotions, but it’s important we don’t let them dictate our actions into doing and saying things that we’ll regret later
