Daily Mindset
“I don’t like that man. I should get to know him better.” – Abraham Lincoln
Perspective is everything.
In the abundance mindset, there is the belief all human beings are good. No one is born evil.
A situation we can all relate to from some point in our lives is a poor first impression. We meet someone we really do not want to spend another second around. Yet, life puts us right back next to them. Definitely not by choice, but by chance.
And we talk.
And we strike some common ground.
And we understand them a bit more.
And things… change. We may not be close friends, but, that animosity we initially felt is no longer there. The brief amount of time we spent talking with them afforded us the chance to better grasp their perspective. And potentially even the reason why we felt the way we did.
Next time we find ourselves feeling that wave of emotion towards someone, remind ourselves… maybe we just need to get to know them a little bit better.
