"Look for the
good and praise it"
Good
morning!
Have you ever noticed the natural human
tendency to put ourselves in the "middle" of everything as a source or
cause? For example, when someone doesn't return a phone call, our
thoughts often turn to, "Did I upset her?" or "Maybe she doesn't want
to talk to me." Or if a co-worker seems to be having an off-day we may
wonder, "Did I contribute?"
When we make the focus about "us" we can't
focus on another person in a healthy way. In these situations it is
best to turn from our own ego and instead look at the situation or the
person directly. Perhaps a call wasn't returned because a child became
sick, or the person went into a ditch in a snowstorm, or fell asleep
while watching TV. Perhaps, it has nothing to do with us. Perhaps a
co-worker learned of an ill-relative, or had a fight with a spouse.
Usually it has nothing to do with us.
Your turn:
As you go throughout your day, watch for the tendency to put yourself
as a "cause" or "reason." When you find yourself doing so, remove the
focus from yourself and instead ask thoughtful and inquisitive
questions about the situation of concern. Remember that when we make
the focus about "us" we can't focus on another person
in a healthy way.
Your affirmation:
I remain focused on the entire situation
versus focused on myself.
And as always,
don't forget to
start your day with a heartfelt: "Something great is
going to
happen today... I can't wait to see what it is!"
And
when ending
your day ask yourself: "What is one more thing I can do
to
make today matter?
