LET THEM (Part 2)

Part two of a discussion of the Mel Robbins book The LET THEM Theory. How does the LET ME portion of her theory interplay with Biblical forgiveness? What is a dark muse and how can you use the power of pain to propel you life forward? Satan wants us to be stuck in a bog of bitterness, comparison and self-defeat. But we can use comparison as fuel for our personal goals. Mel Robbins has (yet again) articulated a profound Biblical concept in a secular voice. Jesus tells us to turn the other cheek- LET THEM do what they want, LET ME put my focus on moving forward.

LET THEM

I decided to pick up a book that everyone has been raving about lately- It’s called Let Them by Mel Robbins. I’m sure you’ve heard of it. Apparently its all the rage.

The good news is, its a very quick read, so I didn’t have to invest much time to get the main takeaways. Although to be honest, I didn’t take much away other than her catchy phrase (which encapsulates truth that any emotionally- introspective, rational person already knows.) Essentially, you can’t control the thoughts or behaviors of anyone else, so LET THEM be who they are. And secondly, you can exert tremendous control over your reactions, so LET ME manage my own self the best I can.
