Difficult Things You Should Start Doing for the People Around You

Being trustworthy and truthful isn’t something that really resonates nowadays, but is nonetheless the foundation of all relationships and healthy communication.

If we are concealing facts, covering up, withholding the truth, or are selective in our honesty, we see the consequences in no time.

• Comparisons, negative thoughts and hateful gestures need to be replaced by clear and kind communication, and being able to listen to and speak the truth.
• Relationships are hindered and broken with threats, belittling, mockery, teasing, name-calling and generally hostile behaviour.
• If the other person constantly receives signals that you hate them, it is very hard to resolve any dispute.

When one tunes out of a relationship or ignores the other person, it breaks down any hope of reaching a solution and ends up freezing the argument in ice.

Complete ‘ghosting’ is only an option when we are clear about our decision and can live with the consequences.

Giving someone your full attention is the gift of your time and kindness.

Listening actively and showing the others how important they are by giving our full attention, is always appreciated. Listening without any anticipation of getting your turn to reply is the most valued gesture you can make to a person.

Genuine praise and appreciation of how amazing the other person is, especially in a public setting, is extremely rewarding.

The other person feels empowered and your good karma never goes unrewarded. A rule to be followed is to praise the other person in public but never penalize or ridicule someone in any public setting.

The most important thing that keeps our lives in a flow is constant learning. One should study and read whatever possible, engage with others, ask questions, and never stop evolving.

One has to always make an endeavour to leave other people in a better condition than they were before.
