Focus On Your Goals.
Hate speech can serve as a distraction. Typically, you will see this kind of behavior in ultra-competitive work environments. For example, one of your colleagues may perceive you as a threat and decide to try to bring you down; again, this tactic only works if you let them know that their opinion matters to you. Do not allow your goals to suffer because another person decided to binge on orange haterade and you just so happened to cross their path after the fact. Rather than dwell on their point of view, focus on your short- and long-term goals. In essence, gluing your nose to the grindstone will keep you out of their periphery. As they say, out of sight, out of mind. Plus, maintaining an impeccable focus will place you on a path to success. While others are yapping away at the water cooler, you will have your mind on what really matters: your personal and career goals.
1Be Assertive.
It never hurts to face a hater head-on and let them know that you do not appreciate their harsh judgments. Tread lightly though, and try to be very tactful, polite, and calm when addressing a sensitive topic so as to avoid an over-the-top confrontation. Saying something along the lines of “I really don’t appreciate it when you [fill in the blank]” should do. That way, you say your piece, stand up for yourself, and communicate your concerns with a sense of civility. Simply recognize that they may want to cause you harm and that is why you should avoid approaching the situation with even an ounce of aggression. Again, if they are trying to get a rise out of you, that is the last thing you want to give them. However, beating around the bush will not do either. It's possible, though not very likely, that they may not even realize that they have offended you in the first place and that is why it is important to communicate any concerns you may have.
