Still thinking about something Patrick said eight months ago

@anon39054230 about 6-8 months in the past you pondered

“What do we think about more, the compliments or the insults”

Do you think every human is wired roughly the same for this deep down, or it depends on your self esteem. Probably your self esteem so it’s more individualized. But I think we as humans are closer than we give credit for in our reactions

So the question is

Do you think/regard more of the negative things people say about you or positive

I’d say I’m a positive person so I tend to brush off hatred a bit more and attract myself to positivity said about me. Wbu??

Depends who says it. I need to respect the person to value his/her opinion.

I’d say I’m stuck in the middle of it. In my little experience I think we as humans are born with traits but our environment determines if those traits grow or not. So I guess what I’m saying is self esteem is a product of how well we have been brought up as children.

I’ve found that people will always surprise you. I’m a positive person which is cool and I often become unstuck because I look for the positives in people and usually not the negatives. It can cause you some grief but I find it works for me. If your positive you tend to get into better and more meaningful relationships.

My parents were divorced when I was a young age saw our father leave our mother destitute with two kids. You don’t know what it’s like to be a girl.
