The Grant Mitt Podcast | Episode 178
Everyone tells you forgiveness is the answer. Nobody tells you there's a third option.
Most people think they have two choices after someone hurts them. Stay bitter, or forgive. Bitterness means they hurt you and still live in your head rent free. Forgiveness means they hurt you and you cleared their account.
There's a third thing almost nobody talks about. You drop the weight, but their account stays open. You just stop collecting on it.
Release is about your peace. Forgiveness is about their conscience. Those are not the same thing.
In this episode: why rushing to forgive deletes the lesson, what forgiveness actually teaches people about the price of hurting you, who really profits when you forgive, how to cut someone off cleanly without carrying them, and the three people you should never forgive.
I'm at peace. You're just not forgiven.
