T he word “peace” has been embedded into our minds since we were
very little, either it’s been taught by our parents, or other adults that
have become somewhat of a mentor to us in the past. Furthermore, it is
not rare for us to be taught that we should not speak anything if we
don’t have anything nice to say because it can hurt other
people’s feelings and we must always try to keep the peace
that way. However, is it really the right way?
Personal Peace
Now, there is some truth to the matter that we must strive for
peace. However, there is a missing puzzle on that definition of
“peace”, and that is we must be at peace as well. Personal peace
is a condition where we do not allow resentment to exist in our
conscious realm because if you are resentful towards something,
either you are too immature in the face of a conflict and need
to grow the hell up, or you have something that you have to
say in your mind and need to straighten things up.
4. Be brave voluntarily
It requires courage to speak, but by voluntarily facing your
fear whether it is a fear of being judged, mocked, or shamed,
your mind will have an easier time dealing with the stressors
because you invite the fear to your own mind, instead of being
confronted involuntarily by it. It will also consolidate your
ability to be more brave in future confrontations.
