People do things that don’t always fit our tastes, principles or values, yet only you can decide whether they will affect you or not, because to be bitter about what we can’t change is to lose the quality of life. , is as simple as “being and letting it be”.
In quantum physics, there is a concept called “quantum entanglement” that has always disturbed Albert Einstein himself and can somehow be applied to human behavior. According to this principle, when two particles come into contact with each other, they change forever in certain respects. In addition, even if they are not close to each other, what they have created together has an impact on the rest of the particles.
- This quantum entanglement also characterizes us.
- It’s easy to understand.
- Let’s take an example.
- We have a colleague with a very special hobby: sowing criticism.
- The mood that produces your behavior and attitude sneaks every day into our emotional backpack.
- To the point that this discomfort affects the way we treat our family.
We are all like chaotic particles that collide and magnetize certain emotional burdens, what some do, others suffer, and those who suffer begin a chain of contagion of this suffering, we must break this interconnection that decimats the quality of our daily relationships. educate our minds so that we can take a step back and break this game of strength.
Certainly, at this point in life there are many things that no longer affect you, you have learned that it is not good to expect so much from people, that it is better to be careful and let daily treatment reveal the true essence of this supposed friend.
However, despite all its experienceal baggage, it always stumbles upon the same stone: that of disappointment, because in our behavioral jungles, the well-known expression: to be and let be, often becomes an ‘I am and I will not. let yourself be. ‘
How can we prevent this kind of attitude from affecting us?It is by no means a question of being passive, of putting into practice the ”non-resistance” where we gradually become the target of all poisoned arrows. The famous labor analyst and writer Daniel Pink presents us with a very interesting and, at the same time, useful term in this same context: buoyancy.
To understand this term it is enough to visualize a beautiful buoy suspended in the sea, this object knows very well what it is and how the ocean treats it, but never sinks, the buoy always floats on the surface, regardless of the waves or ocean storms. This mental endurance comes from this subtle point of balance and strength where the person knows very well what his values are, his internal strengths and his emotional difficulties.
People expect and deserve respect, consideration and recognition. When one of these pillars collapses, we have every right to defend ourselves, react and protect ourselves, yet we must have several clear aspects.
In addition, there is also a certain harmony in this renunciation that generates the acceptance of the person as it is so that we can be free. It’s letting go of something to find an inner balance: climb and float.
We talked at the beginning about the principle of “quantum entanglement”. We know that we are not alone in our environment, in these gravitational fields where we all clash with everyone in a dance sometimes disagrees.
In this game of forces and interactions, as Einstein himself said, we almost always take something from others, so let’s try not to be magnetized just by the negative charge, the one with which, in one way or another, we can infect our loved ones.
Let others be the way they want them to be. Let the speaker talk, let the messy one waste his time in his mess. Let man embed his own life and the critic becomes poisoned by his own language. Let people be any way they want, but when they’re close to you, remember HOW YOU are. Are.
It acts like this firm buoy in the ocean, well attached to its principles, to its internal forces. Sooner or later, the storm always passes.
