Let’s remember that we’re all human beings and we’re not perfect by nature. Therefore, all things are possible. Unfortunately, both in a good way and some times in a not-so-good way. So, getting offended by others’ actions shouldn’t be a surprise unless we’ve forgotten the basic principles.
Maybe if we can follow the 100-0 rule, we might see the world a bit different. We may be able to mitigate some – if not all of the pain we suffer from. Here is the rule: Give 100% effort expecting 0 in return.
This pretty much sets up our expectations right from the “get-go” without being unrealistic and/or disappointed.
How could you? Let me tell you: Because. It doesn’t matter if we’re looking for 0 in return anyway.
This way we can stop placing the blame on others and re-direct it within our circle of influence – our responsibility. That’s the healthy way.
That’s how we could . . . can and will. Thank you very much.
