Quite often we don’t think
that whatever we do in our lives
is building a person or even a team around us
so we react to things the way we want to
we react to others comments or behaviors
whatever we feel like it
if someone failed our expectations
then we use whatever ammunitions we’ve got
trying to get them to listen to us
or to comply with our wishes
and what we use to manipulate people
sort of reflect what kind of person we are
or how we were brought up
sometimes we hear harsh words from our parents
thinking…
they are so ignorant and so harsh on us
but
when we become parents
we suddenly realize we use the exact same tactics on our kids
we can’t get out of this vicious cycle
unless
we look at ourselves
and say
ha
I am just doing exactly the same thing
that my parents did to me
maybe because of this realization
I learn to be more tolerant of people around me
knowing that I am no different than others
in any way that I can think of…
and one thing that i learned
reading the sports news lately is that
to build a team or to build a person
we’ve got to be aware of our own feelings now
and to be aware of others’ feelings so
we know how to say the right thing to others
to help ourselves and others to grow
instead of venting or making ourselves feeling happy at the moment
I was touched by Charlie Manuel’s words
of his team members
and I was touched by Shane Victorino’s comforting words to Happ
They remind me that I should
remember that as we go through our daily lives
we are to help ourselves and others to get better and better
and it does take efforts to accomplish that…..
starting now
I am going to make the efforts to do just that!
