LIFE LESSONS

Author Unknown

She asked a question in a general Group on a WhatsApp platform.
I responded to the question professionally.

She tagged my response and typed: "you're an idiot! "

Upon thinking through her response, I calmly replied: "Thanks so much. Now that you have pointed out my attention to this idiotic part of me, I'll surely work on it, God bless you my dear."

And the whole platform shook. Over 118 people commented. They were so surprised by my calm response. Of course she was terribly bashed to the extent that she "left" the group.

An hour later she called me to apologise for how stupid she's been etc. I forgave her and we became friends.

Then I later ended up handling her premarital counselling sessions.

Two days ago, on my Birthday, she and her husband surprised me with a gift worth over $10,000. This was a year after she called me an idiot.

Life Lessons from this experience:

1. MATURITY: Your reaction to negative feedbacks or situations shows how mature you are.

2. CHOICE: You have the power of choice whenever anybody does or says anything offensive to you.

3. SELF CONTROL: If someone calls you anything negative and you lose yourself and begin to fight or shout or do anything terrible, you only prove them right.

4. SILENCE IS GOLDEN: It is better to keep quiet and let people think you're a fool, than to open your mouth to enable them confirm you're truly a fool.

5. DISCERNMENT: You cannot throw both the baby and the dirty water away from the bathing bowl because the baby had pooed in the bath water.

6. POSITIVE POWER: You have the power to win people through your maturity and composure and not through overly being more sanctimonious than the person.

7. POSITIVE IMPACT: Life is all about people. If I had responded to her negatively, I would have lost a friend forever.

8. WISDOM: There are people who are sent to you by God to help your journey in life to be worthwhile, your meeting point might be at a fighting point. Be wise, even when you're angry.

9. HUMILITY: She was humble enough to call and apologized.

10. RECONCILIATION: Maybe there's someone you need to reconcile with today, go ahead and do just that.

We can all get better with ourselves, with these 10 key lessons, can't we?

Do you notice that people take your opinion seriously? That they value your advice, and look to you for guidance?

Then you may be a leader!

As a leader, people look up to you. You can use the influence you have to carry yourself and others to a bigger and brighter future.

I was raised to show respect. I was taught to knock before I open a door. Say hello when I enter a room. Say please and thank you, and to have respect for my elders. I’d let another person have my seat if they need it. Say ‘yes sir’ and ‘no sir’, and help others when they need me to, not stand on the sidelines and watch. Hold the door for the person behind me, say ‘excuse me’ when it’s needed and to love people for who they are and not for what I can get from them and most importantly, I was also raised to treat people exactly how I would like to be treated by others. It’s called respect. ❤️☀

Are you unable to forgive yourself?

Taking responsibility for your mistakes is a great way to learn but when we start blaming ourselves, we create suffering for ourselves.

When this happens, we only focus on things that went wrong and our contribution that led to that mishap. The regret takes over our minds so much that we make it difficult for ourselves to move on.

Don't keep reminding yourself of the mistake that cannot be rectified. Things go wrong, mistakes happen and at times our judgement can be poor. Learn from your mistakes and aim to improve and allow yourself to move on.

As I sit and think about my life-
Where I’ve been, what I’ve done..even the challenges I’ve faced-
Something stands out at me every time.
There were many times that I’ve wanted something so badly…
Whether it was a new job, a potential love, even the small things, too,
I always ended up finding my way to something better than what I set out to get.
At the time, all I could focus on was that I was disappointed and discouraged about not getting what I wanted…
But now that time has passed,
I realize that everything happens for a reason..
And it’s always because I deserved better.
A better love story, a higher quality job, even a more appealing future.
Every door that closed led me to the door I was always meant to enter.
Truthfully, I couldn’t be more thankful for the broken hearts that taught me and strengthened me, dead ends that opened my eyes and setbacks that turned into comebacks.
I couldn’t see it at the time, but everything happens the way it is meant to..
And that’s not comforting when you’re hurting.
But the older I’ve gotten and the more stuff that I’ve been through, I realize that the bigger picture of my life isn’t something I’ll always see when I’m in the middle of a struggle.
I have to hold onto the fact that I deserve the best out of life and I’m never going to settle for less.
So, as I sit back and take a sip of my drink, I can’t help but smile just a little.
Every broken road has led me right to where I’m meant to be..
And I’m going to make the most out of every opportunity, each day and all the dreams I have for myself…
I’m worth that…and so much more.
