In Northern Kentucky pest control is problem like anywhere else. On the other side of the Ohio River, Cincinnati pest control is an issue like anywhere else. Pest control is the act of eliminating the vermin, animals and insects that destroy valuable property, or bring discomfort to our way of life. A basic way of controlling pests is by creating barriers that keep them from gaining access to the environment or to our property. This is a lesson that can utilized in our daily lives. Most people have friends and acquaintances that provide advice and friendship. A lot of folks also interact with associates, family or friends that bring discomfort and sometimes damage into their life. Learning to cope with these intrusions is similar to dealing with pests.
Termites can exist in a building causing damage long before they are detected. The same holds true for certain personalities and associates that people encounter. A mother continually mention how well the neighbors son is doing what a great doctor he has become. The comment may chew at the beams that support self-esteem, the implied unspoken message being your lack of obvious success. Maybe the boss is constantly finding the little typos in every well researched and incredibly brilliant report submitted. Unlike termites, you can’t poison these people, but the foundation they attack can be reinforced.
Most of the attacks on ones self-esteem can be easily rebuffed like a brilliant Aikido move that takes the energy of the attacker and transforms it into something harmless and may even throw the attacker off balance. If someone says or does something annoying, the first task is to determine why the comment or action caused a reaction. If something is offensive, then either it is because they have hit upon a truth that needs to be addressed, or there is a lack of respect for ones own opinion.
A person in complete integrity with their values will not be offended by a comment, but instead find advise they can use to improve or a piece of advice that holds no value and may even be seen as amusing. Nothing throws off a critic more than a serious accounting of their suggestion. An athlete intent on improving his skills, receives the coaches comments as guidance and incentive. If the vice president of get in your face is hung up on the typos, a person with low self-esteem may feel inadequate while a person focused on the big picture may quickly turn the tables by acknowledging the typos as a simple problem easy to correct and asking the boss for suggestions to improve the content and not the form. Suddenly the boss is redirected to deal with the important issues and drop the petty stuff.
When a person operates out of their own integrity and strives to do their best they develop immunity to others petty behavior and mean spirited comments. By maintaining the high road, the human pests lose their power to agitate. Even if the neighbors boy is a successful Doctor you can always tell your mother, “good for him, I hope he is as happy and content with his life as I am”.
