So many times, we are trying to be a second rate version of someone else instead of trying to be a first rate version of ourselves. One of the best lessons I ever learned was from one of my old bosses.
He said, "What other people think of you is None of Your Business !"
Well isn't that the truth! You have only one person to be concerned with and that is yourself.
If you try to live up to the expectations of what someone else expects of you or how you should act, you are going to drive yourself nuts. If people can't love and accept you for what you are then its time to change your associations.
Don't you agree?
Has there ever been a time when you thought to yourself - Why is life being so hard on me? Well, I'm here to tell you that you manifested this pain. People sometimes say and do things they don't mean. You have to have the patience and the ability to forgive to see through the mist. You can change your life into whatever you desire. You just have to believe. Do you have any experiences in your life where as you don't know how it happened, but, you received exactly what you desired? Let me know.
I am absolutely amazed how many times I have come across people who say something and yet do another. How many times have you caught yourself saying: "Thats it I quit!" or "Starting tomorrow, I'm ..." Its like people know what's needs to happen, they want to do what needs to happen, yet, they remain the same. The way to deal with something you don't like is to change. Sounds simple enough right? People don't like to change. Fear stops them or they second guess themselves. Well I'm here to tell you that you already know what would happen if you remained the same right? So what do you have to lose if you try something different or new? The answer is nothing! Now I know that I'm no angel. I've caught myself doing this on occasion. Have you? Let me know your thought.
