How to I Will Behave With Kindness and Grace for 90 Days by PeaceHopeLife

"I had to stop the mouth and breathe, consider and then respond, not react."

How I did it: I was so competitive.  Competition is a very important part of life and success.  Like everything else in life it needs to be held in moderation.  I approached life as if every encounter was a duel to the death.  In some ways it was.  I needed to acknowledge that to myself and then "shut up", choose my battles and let go of many of the wars because they were all in my head.  So...to accomplish this goal I listened.  I was quiet, I was reflective and I choose to respond with a kind remark or sometimes just a smile.  I've always been a toucher, now ever more so and I've noticed that even my touch is lighter.

Lessons & tips: Shhh! Listen, there is so much to learn.

Resources: Breathe, often and deeply.
