    Have Some Grace, Cause Everyone Is Dealing with Something... DO THE WORK - Day 235

    enMarch 21, 2017

    Podcast Summary

    • Recognizing others' strugglesBe patient and understanding towards others, as everyone has their own battles to fight. Practice empathy to create a more compassionate world.

      Everyone is fighting their own battles, and it's important to have patience and understanding towards others. The speaker shares how they used to have little patience for small inconveniences, but after realizing that everyone has their own struggles, they learned to be more compassionate. It's easy to make snap judgments based on limited information, but we don't always see the whole story. By acknowledging this and practicing empathy, we can create a more compassionate world. The speaker also notes that this is a deeply rooted lesson they hope to convey for the rest of their life.

    • Practice Empathy and Give People GraceEmpathy and giving people grace can lead to positive changes in relationships and interactions. Instead of judging or reacting negatively, focus on understanding and compassion.

      We should all practice more empathy and give people grace in our interactions with them. We don't always know what battles they might be facing in their personal lives, and it's important to remember that everyone deals with issues and reacts differently. Instead of judging or measuring the significance of others' problems, we should focus on being understanding and compassionate. This can lead to positive changes in the way people interact and treat each other. It's a lesson that can be life-changing, and one that I regret not learning earlier in my life. It's easy to fall into the habit of criticizing or reacting negatively to others, but taking a moment to pause and consider their perspective can make a big difference. So, let's all strive to give people the benefit of the doubt and extend some grace when we encounter difficult situations or challenging people.

    • Everyone is fighting their battlesBe kind, understanding, and compassionate towards others as everyone is dealing with their own struggles and challenges in life.

      Everyone, including yourself, is dealing with their own struggles and challenges in life. It's essential to extend grace to others, as you never truly know what they're going through. The world can be hard enough, and we don't need to add to each other's burdens by fighting over meaningless things. People's actions may be influenced by their personal problems, which can vary in severity and degree. By showing compassion and understanding, we can make a positive impact on someone's day and create a more harmonious environment for everyone. Remember, everyone is fighting their battles, and it's crucial to be kind, thankful, and do the work to make the world a better place.

    What Did You Do About It?

    Next time you want to blame someone else for being ____ ask yourself - what did I do about it?  We are quick to blame others when we could have done more or done things differently.  It's often partially our own fault, more than we would like to admit. Admit it and be better.
