There is an awful lot of negative energy out there and some of it is directed at us by other people. But other peopleÂ’s reactions and opinions are simply other peopleÂ’s reactions and opinions. They are having their own experience and none of it has anything to do with you Â– it does not make you wrong, guilty, bad, unworthy, famous, loveable, or important. If you take it personally and take on the poison of anotherÂ’s words, it becomes a very negative agreement you have with yourself. What anybody thinks about you, or says about you, is really about them. Not taking it personally allows you to be in relationship with anyone and not get trapped in their stuff. This agreement can also pertain to things that we take personally that cause us to go into upset.
