Subduing the ego
11 months ago
A non-judgemental attitude is a must here. Not easy really but possible with practice, I’m sure. When I judge others, I quickly give myself a quick talking to and ask myself, what do my opinions matter in the given situation? I find that it is all too easy to judge and much harder to consciously have an attitude of acceptance, understanding and compassion. I will keep working on this one and hopefully in time subdue my ego…

If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man’s life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

This goal of mine has matured into the above new goal. I am still practising acceptance, understanding and compassion. I am finding that mindfulness helps with acceptance and understanding and leads to gratitude, compassion and constructivity.

I am absolutely needing to do this. I can be compassionate , understanding and accepting of my friends – but most of the time, I can be a huge bitch to strangers. I need to be more accepting of what random people do around me, I hate people being rude and obnoxious but I guess I have to learn to accept it. Good luck everyone! (:
