I have issues picking up other people's energy. It really effects me. You have to kinda create an invisible barrier to keep these energies out.
If you are able to practically become a self-defined person, who literally is able to 'author their own reality' and has the mental and emotional resilience and discipline - it is possible to be unaffected by external circumstances. You might still percieve them, sure, but, they have no power over your internal state - you are no longer a 'victim to external circumstance' - for it is you that becomes the proactive force that defines your circumstance.
I suppose for the more metaphysically minded members, the concept of an energetic buffer barrier / shield might be adequate. Also, being in a pro-active state - as opposed to passive - can result in you becoming, for lack of a better word ... impervious.
I am quite sensitive to external things, so it was in my best interests to explore novel strategies to acclimatise, and fortify my inner resolve, so as to become a force 'in and of myself' - via both a shift in my mentality/attitude as well as belief system.
In an alternative way of putting it, I am so focused on myself, my inner narrative, my projects, passions and what I happen to be doing at any particular time, that i simply have no time to put towards focusing or paying attention to other things. This is not to imply that I am oblivious to others and their needs. I suppose based on my words someome might assume I am selfish. But, if i am not to care for, maintain and nurture my inner self, who will?
I realise my description becomes somewhat abstract, but I really did my best!
