What others say and do is a projection of their reality from "summary" of The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz,Janet Mills
When we interact with others, it is important to remember that their words and actions are a reflection of their own beliefs and experiences. Each person sees the world through their own unique lens, shaped by their upbringing, culture, and personal history. Therefore, when someone criticizes us or acts in a certain way, it is not necessarily a true reflection of who we are, but rather a projection of their own reality. By understanding this concept, we can detach ourselves from taking things personally and getting caught up in unnecessary drama. Instead of internalizing someone else's negativity or judgement, we can choose to respond with compassion and understanding. We can recognize that their words and actions are a product of their own fears, insecurities, and past experiences, rather than a direct reflection of our worth or character. When we realize that what others say and do is a projection of their reality, we can free ourselves from the burden of seeking validation and approval from external sources. We can focus on our own inner truth and values, rather than allowing ourselves to be swayed by the opinions and expectations of others. This shift in perspective allows us to cultivate a sense of self-worth that is not dependent on external validation, but rather rooted in our own authenticity and integrity.- By recognizing that what others say and do is a projection of their reality, we can cultivate a greater sense of empathy, compassion, and understanding in our interactions with others. We can choose to respond with kindness and grace, knowing that everyone is on their own journey and struggling with their own challenges. By letting go of the need to control or change others, we can create more harmonious and fulfilling relationships based on mutual respect and acceptance.
