Why is it we tend to look for the negative in each and every situation?
Why do we only call out the flaws in others, rather than their strengths’ or other positive attributes?
Why do we only notice our own faults and not what we love about ourselves?
I’m not sure. But, I do it often and we don’t need to continue. We can choose to see the success, the growth and how far we’ve come if we’re want.
Why not? Let’s highlight the positives, the break-throughs, the effort and the minor successes. Let’s find the diamonds in the rough and lessons learned in the process.
We all make mistakes. We all have come short at one point and most likely will again and again.
But, maybe we see the world around us as a glass of water that is half full rather than half empty. That’s the kind of person I want to be around. Actually, that’s the kind of person I want to be.
