 5 Positive Ways to Overcome Betrayal in Life and Business

Have you ever experienced someone betraying you?

I've experienced it both personally and professionally a few times. It's funny how frequently it involves the individuals we most trust—the folks we least anticipate.

How could people I so deeply love and trust betray me in such a way? 

I was furious and heartbroken. My mind was racing with questions like, Do I confront them? Do I let them know? What shall I do with this?

Some people respond differently to betrayal. Ultimately, though, whether you decide to get through such a trying moment positively or negatively rests on your decision. Being betrayed is a fully bad experience, so it may seem unusual to imagine that one could deal with it positively, but I tell you that it is possible. I am aware of this because I accomplished it; you can too. These are the five principles that guided my recovery.

Number 5: Confront your betrayer.

Each has a different perspective. What one person may perceive as a blatant betrayal may be perceived by another as a distorted perspective. Confronting the other party involved is crucial for this reason. What does the person think his or her genuine intentions are? 

Let the individual explain. If there's a chance the "betrayal" was just a misunderstanding gone awry, it's not worth holding anger inside. Holding onto grudges and unpleasant emotions towards one person will inevitably affect your other relationships, both personal and professional.

Number 4: Do not go to a lower-floor vibration.

I like to think of us as being on various floors of a skyscraper. The vibration of those who consistently strive to be their best selves is higher, and they are on a higher floor. Individuals with a lower-floor vibration are those who dwell on what isn't functioning and wallow in unpleasant circumstances.

I put a lot of effort into achieving my higher-floor vibration, and I put in much more effort to keep it. Neither would I wish those who betrayed me ill will nor would I expose them. Such behaviors are merely the result of a mindset that belongs to a lower vibration.

Others will glance at you, wonder what you're doing, become inquisitive, and start to raise their vibrations if you continue to maintain an upper-floor vibe. On the other hand, you won't be doing yourself (or anyone around you) any favors if you reduce your vibration to match theirs. Always decide to follow your greatest vibration. In the long run, in particular, you'll feel better and be more pleased with yourself.

Number 3: Put your energy into bringing yourself closer to where you want to be.

I think we have a set amount of energy to start the day each morning. Let's imagine we each receive 100 watts to put a number on it. What will you do with yours? Would you rather build the life and business you genuinely want or devote your energies to making peace?

Watts would be deducted from the constructive job I want to complete for every watt spent on angry thoughts or actions towards those who wronged me. I decided to focus my efforts on activities that will enhance my quality of life. I won't devote even one more watt of power to the regrettable incidents in my past. You can follow suit.

Number 2: What goes around comes around.

You receive back what you put out. Both in life and in business, it is true.

Decide to act in a way that is consistent with your values and purpose. Decide according to who you are at your most authentic. Always. It does not make sense for you to act in the same way as others who choose to be dishonest or harmful.

Send positive energy out into the world. The energy you wish to receive provides. A traitor's deeds are a part of his or her karma, and all that bad karma will eventually catch up to them.

Number 1: Embrace the betrayal.

I know this is a tough one, but you must make peace with the betrayal. You need to look at what happened and ask, "What did I learn from this?"

The betrayal happened for a reason: so you could learn some hard lessons and move forward. If you have trouble getting rid of your frustrations, try writing them out on a piece of paper and burning them. Whatever your course of action, you need to start letting your negative feelings go -- but not before learning from them.

Don't let these painful lessons serve no purpose. Embrace your hurt and be grateful for the knowledge it brings to guide you to a higher path in life.
