The Path of Least Resistance is ALL the Bully Deserves

Path of least resistance means focusing on what you want as much as possible.You will certainly feel things that will make you doubt what you want and what you’re going for.But really there is no doubt. There is only trust.Either you trust in what you want (your way), or you trust in what you fear (the bully’s way).Yes you have had a series of bad experiences and failures with this bully.So of course you feel some fear.However, it’s what you feel most that you get.Ask yourself how you can feel good and secure even about the fear you’ve faced or are still facing with this bully.If I had to guess, you might be able to feel good and secure with all that you’ve learned.Whatever you know because of this bullying and whatever you’re learning now is to your advantage.Think about it! You know what it’s like to be bullied and what it’s like to be disliked.Some people don’t know what being disliked means. They fear it because they don’t understand it.You do! You don’t have to fear being disliked as they do because you do know about it.That doesn’t mean you like it. Just that you don’t fear it from a standpoint of ignorance or innocence.This experience can make you secure in the way all experiences give certainty.And what could be good you ask about being disliked??Freedom. There is freedom in the willingness to be disliked. Because you are willing to be yourself at all costs.There’s even more freedom in having already been disliked. It means not only that you are willing to accept being disliked but that you also know you can handle it.Now, all you must do is continue in the direction of your freedom.You didn’t want to be disliked by the bully, but now that you have, see it as a gift.The gift of freedom from fear of what others might think.Drop the importance you used to place on success with others, and put the importance on your freedom instead.Focus on liking yourself and what others will like about you instead of being afraid of judgement and dislike.Focus on the water and you’ll hit the water. Focus on the rocks and you’ll hit the rocks.Feel good and secure because of the bully instead of wishing they’d go away.They have taught you things to make you stronger, braver. They have exposed you to problems to learn and overcome.We can worry about the bullies, which is what they want us to do, or we can be thankful we known them, which means we see them for what they are.Even better they see us for what we are.When it comes to a bully, follow the path of least resistance: Choose the easy way instead of trying to choose the best way.
