Returning To My Original State Of Goodness (Part 2)

A very important and influential aspect of our lives is living every thought in our actions. It is said commonly – that you practice what you preach. In other words, you have many ideal thoughts and good viewpoints and you keep them as benchmarks to follow and look up to. But, sometimes whilst performing actions, you don’t actually live by these benchmarks, which not only disappoints and gives sorrow to oneself but also disturbs and gives sorrow to others.

➤E.g. today I decided I will remain happy at any cost and give everyone the same. But as soon as I face a difficult situation or problem, it takes very little time for me to start worrying and radiating the same energy to others. Also, on another day 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬.

➤But as soon as I have to face a negative behavior of someone, I lose the love inside my heart and not only think negatively about the other person but also speak against the person to others. This spoils my relationships. So, these and many more are benchmarks that we keep in our mind and try and reach up to, throughout the day and every day.

➤Sometimes we are successful in doing so and sometimes, we are unable to do so. What is the reason for this? Are we not nice people at heart, all of us? Of course, some are nicer. But, 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐝𝐨𝐦, 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨, 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬, 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞. Some are serious about bringing about niceness in their lives and natures and some think about the change towards becoming nicer but do not bring it in their personality with determination.

"Our concern for improving relationships will bring understanding"

Points to think about:

If there's something we don't like about someone, it's easy to talk negatively about it. Often, we act without thinking and get angry. Our words and behavior are negative and insulting. This further widens the gap and damages the relationship.


Procedure:

If someone does something unpleasant, I must first try and understand that behavior. Everyone has a reason for their behavior. If I can't understand it at the time, I need to think about why they behave that way. The more I react to that person or bad behavior, the greater the gap. To improve relationships, I need to remind myself of the good in others.
