Declare My Independence from
Disappointment.
I am Free to Trust Imperfect People.
Ā
āWait! Tanya, did you just suggest that I trust IMPERFECT people?!ā
Wellā¦ Yeah. I did.Ā
Why would I do such an outlandish thing?
Ā Because there arenāt any perfect people.
Think about that for a moment.
There arenāt any people that are practically perfect in every way (Mary Poppins
excepted).
Ā
So that meansā¦ We are all in the business of trusting,Ā
imperfect people every single day.
The way you Declare your Independence from Disappointment is to be honest with yourself about the players in this game.
Everybody has the drunk uncle, crazy cousin, or abusive aunt, somewhere in the family, right?
If you lent this person your car, you would pretty much expect it to come back at a minimum out of gas or not at all.
Ā There would be NO DISAPPOINTMENT in that.
You had FREED yourself from disappointment by simply deciding to not rely upon
the performance of sketchy relatives.
So how about you just extend that?
Here is a very valuable piece of advice, most people can be trusted for SOME thingsā¦ The trick is to know the things you can trust them for and donāt trust them for any other things!
You can trust, imperfect peopleĀ
so long as you donāt trust them in their weakest
area.
When you stop trusting, imperfect people in their weakest area, you can Declare Yourself FREE from Disappointment.
So you donāt trust the alcoholic to not drink at the party, thatās their weakest
area.
Teenager who skips school, to stay home alone while you travel for work? Nope.
āBest friendā who is kind of jealous, with your brand new business dream? Not even a little bit.
Declare your Independence from preventable Disappointment.Ā
Trust Imperfect People only with their STRENGTHS.
Ā
Ā
āWhat about uncontrollable disappointments?ā
The answer is in the description. As Alphas, we HATE (Capital H again), things we cannot
control.
But listen to me my beautiful girl, you WANT to focus on learning to
stop RESISTING the unresistible.
Stop
setting yourself up. And when a whammy hits, roll with it ladies.
Declare your FREEDOM FROM DISAPPOINTMENT.Ā
You can thank me later :-).

In Joy,
