Embarrassment is that hot, awful feeling when you think you’ve done something stupid or been seen at your worst. Your face gets hot, you want to disappear, and you replay the moment over and over. Here’s the truth: embarrassing moments feel HUGE to you but are usually small to others. People are mostly thinking about themselves, not analyzing your mistakes. Everyone has embarrassing moments – it’s part of being human!
What can help:
What to know
- Laugh at yourself – humor takes away the sting
- Remember people forget quickly and move on
- Share the story with a friend – it helps release the feeling
- Ask yourself “Will this matter in a week?”
Embarrassment is temporary, but learning to laugh at yourself lasts forever!
