It can be tough but try it.
Step into the shoes of someone with the opposite viewpoint to you and try to argue their perspective. Understand why they have that view and what they are trying to get from it.
Do try to recognise the bias you have and try to remove it from your thoughts.
Sometimes a good surprise can make all the difference.
Enjoy the time you have on this great Earth.
There is a lot of fun to be had!
Life gets a lot easier if you are looking for common ground.
Oh, and if you don’t feel the need to blame anyone.
Build it now. Make your plans and execute. Build a better body, stronger mind and more resilient soul.
Build a better company, marriage, community and church.
People are natural builders. Get out there and build something!
When you are clear about what you want, being presented with many choices is irrelevant. Stick with your focus.
There are so many things to do, distractions, and yet you must make time to be with your family.
Get excited about your life! Either appreciate what is going on a lot more or find more things that get you excited.
That excited feeling is brilliant. Your senses are all fired up and you get a real feeling of being alive.
Work can do it. Sports can fire you up. Going on a trip can get your juices flowing. Do more and appreciate more. Concerts can also do it.
Watching England beat France in rugby last week did it. So did watching the Eagles beat the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. And now again the excitement peaked with Canada winning the NHL 4 Nations Face-Off in a very exciting final match against team USA.
How you interpret things is how you see them. It is how you experience them. You react based on your learning and life experience. If you consider other options, it will help you respond.
The thing may not be what you interpret. It will be what it is, without your interpretation. Be mindful of this difference.
How to know and what to do? Pause. Consider how other people that are different to you might experience the same thing. Their way may not be better than your way, but it’s good to consider what they got from it.
