3 Tips to Deal With Haters and Bullies
Do you have trouble dealing with bullies and haters?
Almost everyone has experienced a hater or bully in life. These people get into our heads and mess with our confidence and motivation. If we aren’t careful, they can derail us from our hopes and dreams.
In my house, there are frequent conversations around this topic as my children experience these issues in school and sports. Unfortunately, changing the behavior of the bully is usually out of our control.
It’s not easy, but working on our own mindset and reaction is often the best way to manage these situations.
1. Do more of what they hate

Don’t change who you are. Be yourself and keep doing what makes YOU happy.
