    Default Dealing with gossip

    Hey guys,

    I came across this in my explorations and wanted to share....

    But I got over that and eventually came back to the idea that I always come to when I hear that someone's been talking negatively about me behind my back: You can't pay attention to what people say about you when you are not present.
    There are three reasons:
    1. They are venting -- so much of what they are saying is exaggerated. (Have you ever said anything about anyone that was exaggerated?)
    2. That which is heartfelt at the moment may be temporary. (Think about how your opinion about certain colleagues has changed over the years.)
    3. Most of what is heartfelt and permanent doesn't affect you. It's just talk.
    So don't worry about what people say behind your back. It is mostly a reflection of how powerless they feel. Focus on doing what you think is best and hope that your detractors will come around to seeing the wisdom of your ways.

    Quite honestly, I couldn't give a shit what people say or think about me. I know who I am and what I do and I like who I am and what I do. If people want to gossip and speculate, let them waste their time talking shit, I'm not going to waste my time and energy worring about it - theres far better things I could be doing. (-:
    It does shit me sometimes that some people are so narrow-minded and opinunated about totally stupid things, but on a personal level - fuck em!

    People talk about me, and this draws attention to me, makes people curious. I don't give a rats ass if it's good or bad. I ignore all them now. Took a long time to learn, but these days it's so different for me. I am too lazy and tired to argue, plus i just don't give a shit.

    It seems the older I get the less likely I am to care what others think of me. People are always going to have their opinions and are always going to talk shit. And the world keeps right on spinning....

    If they talk about me thats because their life is so empty and generaly just because they are fascinated about me ! My friend even heard a girl saying that she hated me because i'm so beautiful ! Hahaha ! Thank you !
