@justaskjefferson: Stop responding to insults like this.

TB333 :

I struggle with this because if you say nothing, you’re teaching people how to treat you

JA :

I dont like to insult me just walk away

LJK Entertainment :

Choose your battles wisely. Sometimes you don’t lose because you’re weak. You lose because you fight everything. Remember, you’re not supposed to engage in every conflict. Real power is in knowing what to ignore. So, choose what’s worth your energy, choose what’s worth your peace.

Craig Wiggins :

No response is the best response.

reneegarvey :

I say give me a 5 I will immediately give you a 10. kindness is seen as weakness in this cruel world.

ShelleyFurtadoLinton :

I use all your teaching in my role as a middle school teacher. 😁

10,152 ft Kate :

When someone gives you a 5 they are wanting a dopamine hit from your response (positive or negative) Let it fall to the ground like Jefferson says. You’re not a pushover, you are strong enough to not give it any power!💥

TwinTikTokers :

I go to a 10. They don’t try me a 2nd time 😄

Skaw 02 :

Masterclass in communication. Silence and poise will always disarm an insult faster than a reaction.

Jbird164 :

“Poorly thrown…let it go by” 👏

Gibson Discgolf🥏 :

Peace of mind is probably the most important thing you can have in the face of everyone else’s opinion. They dont matter, nor does they’re opinion. You do you, and Enjoy it🙏🏻

Anita :

Such a great reminder

S.A.T | Speaking for Students :

this is all about not being subjective to their opinions.

Creda_B :

“Sometimes you have to imagine people’s words just falling to the ground…”🥰🥰

And Andrea :

Silence is deadly. Do not engage and then they quickly become thrown off. Confused. Nobody has access to you unless you let them.

Marissa Carbone | NM REALTOR® :

Agree! Don’t even engage save your energy.

Big GC :

No one can ruin my peace anymore

katiedecker18 :

Pray & bless your enemies

Jabeen Hirani :

Hania :

It's not always about staying silent. Often, you must speak up and say, "I don't appreciate those words directed at me." my option.

Feli :

I give it to you right back and leave

Theta Mind :

no need to neg back 🤭

Maude Muto :

Sorry nope. I need to defend myself

🍋‍🟩pickuplimes🍋‍🟩 :

Nope! I lived like this forever. Now I’m gonna be petty AF.

Stacey Olson | Balance :

This message is perfect timing.
