What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.
I have often in the past, watched and studied the people I worked with for 10 hours a day, and tried to be a better person for seeing how they acted. one thing i have observed, is I talk way to much, and I talk to loud, and even though I see how others do not I can't seem to change that part of me. My cousin Bonnie, has been trained by the job she has, how to make people do what you want them to do, without telling them. I have noticed that the louder I get, the softer she talks, which says to me, tone it down, you are getting to loud. I wonder if she knows I know what she is doing
A great example by Sandra above. I was fortunate to have good parents so I got a good foundation from them. I never wanted to disappoint them. That sense of not wanting to cause them grief was a guiding star in my young life. A strong foundation is needed to build a good house.
Absolutely wonderful words to live by. Working with international students and scholars I am happy to say made me a MUCH BETTER LISTENER. Hugs and thank you so very much for the lovely bday wishes. I just returned from a 1.1 mile walk. Cecilia

Those are great words to live by. Lady says she is very impressed with all your hook work. She doesn't have the patience. Lee and Phod
ReplyDeleteWhen younger and working to better myself, I used to note colleagues' and friends' actions; acknowledged their good deeds but never act on their bad.
ReplyDeleteSuch a good quote! Thanks for sharing! Hope you have an amazing New Year!
