“Someone attacking you for being you doesn’t have to be the last word. There are lots of ways to flip the script; find a way to make that negativity work for you. What is the flaw or weakness in what someone’s doing to you? How do you exploit that to turn the argument around and come out better for it, if still bruised and scarred? You may not get that opportunity often, and sometimes the hurt is real and there’s nothing much in the moment you can do to make it better, because punching someone in the face or burying them under a pile of bricks is, generally speaking, frowned upon. But how it governs your day-to-day actions afterward is, to an extent, up to you, through how you choose to process that information. Will you let it break you down? Or will you never let the bastards grind ya down?”
