The Let Them Theory Review
Have you ever felt stressed out because of planning everything before every little event or gathering, but nothing happened accordingly? If yes, this is the situation we are going to talk about today. The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins teaches us how to let others do what they want, say what they want to say, go where they want to go, or behave how they want to behave. Mel Robbins says that we stress more when we try to control others behavior. This is the wisest advice I have received. I mean, we can also link this theory to confidence. Imagine you are a singer performing in front of the crowd or speaking publicly. The first focus should be the topic or the strategy that made you stand there. This shouldn’t be the people there; the more you stress out about how people are going to judge you, the more you feel stressed out and the more chances you have of losing your confidence.
We often try to control others behavior either for approval, love, or attention. But if we let them be who they are, it is an ultimate freedom. Not just for them but also for ourselves. Practice listening with an open mind, and practice not trying to control what you can’t. It releases your mind from stressing too much and saves energy for what you can control. This saves you from disappointments.
Your disappointment is not the fault of others but the reflection of your expectation that you failed to meet. When you change your perspective, it helps us work on letting others be what they truly are.
