Use kindness to keep your clarity
When I get frustrated with other people for not being their best, it is ironic that frustration takes me out of being my best. We become what we judge.
When I am not my best self, I am no longer creating my life, something else is, and I want to be in the driver’s seat. When I can remain kind, I can remain myself and choose from a place of clarity.
The Dictionary app defines kind as “having feelings benefitting our common nature.” Being kind doesn’t mean that I need to over-tolerate a harmful behavior or become complicit; it means I can understand that we all make mistakes as part of our humanity and that I can keep my focus on whatever is most beneficial to myself and others, which will never be frustration or judgment.
Our power lives in our clarity. Our clarity lives in our kindness.
