Why silence drives your enemies insane.
Stoic mindset. The most dangerous power you can possess is the power to walk away and feel absolutely nothing.
When people disrespect you, insult your boundaries, or take your peace for granted, do not argue.
Do not explain yourself.
Silence is your answer.
Weak people react with anger because they crave your validation.
Strong people react with absence.
They remove their presence from where it is not valued.

Save your peace. Master your mind.
