Experiences to help you deal with people
Are you the problem?
The problems we have with other people tend to follow a pattern. In other words, we have the same problem with people at different times and places. It could be something happening in one job after another, one business after another, or one relationship. This experience aims to help you understand if you are the common factor in things you find annoying in other people. In other words, what you find annoying in other people is signaling something that needs to change in yourself.
Let's get started!
Can you admire?
The following experience invites you to answer thought-provoking questions and encourages you to recognize admirable qualities in the people you find most difficult to deal with. You can respond directly with your answers, or if you prefer, take a moment to write them down so you can reflect on them later.
Can you challenge yourself to admire those you struggle to be around?
What aspects of them can you genuinely appreciate?
What is this person helping you to cultivate within yourself?
Is their closed-mindedness or emotional rigidity allowing you to become more open-minded and empathetic?
How does your experience change when you choose to admire the people who are the most challenging for you to interact with?
