Whom do you let influence you?
Often, it is people we trust. Maybe they are wise and have given us good advice; maybe they were there for us when we needed them or helped us through difficult times. These are sound reasons.
But sometimes, we give people power over us for emotional reasons such as guilt or shame.
Maybe we have unconscious reasons such as we are intimidated by them or we feel we need their approval. If we are going to give people power over us, we must to do so consciously.
You are the gatekeeper and should know why you give them power. They shouldn’t be able to influence you without your permission. It may feel like they automatically have power over you but they don’t; you give it to them. Take back control of that power.
