Now, that's for fun. We are here for a totally different business even if it has to do with the word "belittle" or any of its derivatives. So, what are we talking about? How to be totally unbelittlable. It's words galore today, isn't it?
Every office and community, has its own share of toxic fellows. And a common characteristic of toxic people is a constant attempt to belittle other people. They seem to think that they get higher by reducing others. What an erroneous mindset! No wonder they are not normal and are therefore described as 'toxic' or 'immature' - such words!
And they eventually get to be described as 'insane' unless they get help along the line. Unfortunately, quite unfortunately, many outright insanity cases out there today are toxic people who refused help arrogantly. And, did I need to tell you that, everywhere, a degree of arrogance is a manifestation of a degree of mental ill health. Quote me if you wish.
So, how do you keep afloat toxic people at the office and everywhere especially when it comes to their persistent attempts to make you feel smaller than God made you? The worst of it all is the power they seem to have over how you feel. They make your work days not worth having. What a huge chunk of your life they seem to run! At least five out of the seven days of your weeks!
This is a never-known tip that works no matter what, who or where: Learn to be humble without being subservient. When you are not humble, tongues wag across the office that 'that fellow (YOU) is full of himself' as if those saying it are emptied of themselves.

It only takes someone who is full of him/herself to stop minding their business and start noticing someone else who are "full of themselves". But people say that daily. Then they reach a unanimous agreement that they are right about you.
The worst part is that, if you are humble and subservient, you become even an easier target for mean attitudes and rumors from those poor toxic souls. Needless to say, such rumours get to affect your networks both within and without even if they have weak foundations you can easily unravel and take advantage of.
Well, logic is not a language these almost unthinking people understand. So our aim here is not to change them towards you but to make you apply your spirit to overcome their irrationality and control them for good instead. After all, isn't it said that 'idea rules the world'? Shouldn't the wise rule over the fools anymore as the holy scriptures say?
Meanwhile, this tip is for YOU if indeed you are among the wise: how to use your wisdom to control toxic people - whether they are your superiors, colleagues or inferiors - rather than let them run and ruin 5/7 of your life.
So, at your work place, to beat the hell toxic in their own game, learn to respect everyone with your head held high - not arrogantly but confidently. But how do you do this in fact? Start with this: Interact with colleagues with your head held high, a smile on your face and especially LOOKING THEM EYEBALL-TO-EYEBALL, but with genuine respect. Don't talk much and don't worry about how stupid people are or try to limit their excesses. Read The Parable of the Unwary Genius and see why.

As you interact this way, toxic people are intimidated by your personality without having what to use against you. So, they remain helpless about you. If there is one who insists on being mean with you, keep being gentle with him. Then, just when he feels he has you in his/her palms, take advantage of one of the cases he is going to be clearly unfair with you to take him unawares by being intensely but briefly stern with him. This takes the coward suddenly off his feet.
I have been inspired with words to help the truly wise rule over the truly foolish in our world especially at the work places. I have never seen anyone who considered himself or herself foolish. Instead, everyone seems to be wise in her/his own eyes. So, the only way you'll recognize yourself as one of those for whom these words are intended is that they would have been making sense to you by now. Believe me, that's why and how you have read to this point in the first place. So, I urge you to take these words to heart and share them with as many people as you can - I hope you know that the greatest tool of wisdom is selflessness. There are spiritual ducts of wisdom that pettiness clogs up, much like the way cholesterol clogs up the blood vessels. That's why, anyone who must be wise must learn how to think away from SELF to OTHERS. So, the moment you see yourself thinking, "how can I use these tips to take undue advantage of others" just know you have missed it's substance and therefore, you don't hope to enjoy the great benefits of wisdom which they have come to implant in you. So share this blog and our social media platforms: the more we have truly wise people ruling the world, the best for all of us.
