My wife has a favorite saying that goes like this… “You can be right, or you can have relationships”. The point is not that we shouldn’t seek after what is true, what is best, and what is right…but that we shouldn’t sacrafice relationships on the alter of ego and our need to show others how they are wrong and how we are right.
Still there are many wonderful things we can be right about that don’t damage relationships or individuals and that instead build them. Do you believe that people can become more than they are? If you do …you are RIGHT! Treat people as they are and they will remain as they are. Treat people as they may become and they are much more likely to become more. That is something worth being right about. I think people are awesome – people like you – do you agree?
Make it a great day… by being your totally awesome self!
