What if?

What if it is “my way or the highway”?

What if I do things my way and you do things your way and I am frustrated because you are not doing them my way, “the right way,” and I know you will never succeed? What if I get angry at you? What if my frustration is showing me that I know how to do it right but I am NOT doing it right? What if both ways were perfect?

What if your criticism helps me teach you how to treat me?

What if someone delivers criticism poorly and I take this opportunity to tell them, “I think you made some valid points, but I would receive them better if you didn’t raise your voice”?

What if they said it more kindly the next time? Brahma Kumaris
