Welcome to the Country Proud Living Podcast, I am your host LoriLynn!
You Have to Be Strong, Enrich Your Life, and Improve Your Health
This episode builds upon the last one...mentally tough people know that life goes a lot smoother once you let go of grudges and forgive even those who never said they were sorry. Grudges let negative events from your past ruin today’s happiness. Hate and anger are emotional parasites that destroy your joy in life.
"The weak can never forgive, forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." Gandhi
The negative emotions that come with holding on to a grudge create a stress response in your body, and holding on to stress can have devastating consequences (both physically and mentally). When you forgive someone, it doesn’t condone their actions; it simply frees you from being their eternal victim.
People who "play the victim" often communicate passive-aggressively because it's difficult for them to acknowledge their own faults. Holding grudges that can last for years because they are very unforgiving and self-righteous.
Emotional intelligence is the cornerstone of mental toughness. You cannot be mentally tough without the ability to fully understand and tolerate strong negative emotions and do something productive with them.
