The Boss’ words of wisdom are good for us girls too. Why do we set-up a list of conditions that need to be met in order to be who we want to be?
I am in school, as you steady readers know. I have been in a program since the fall. We are a small group that got even smaller as time went on. Some people have banded together. A fact that bothers others as they feel excluded. There are all kinds of people in the group: some young ones, some with less experience, some that have come from a completely different environment and of course some who are very ambitious and competitive. After 6 months, pettiness* has not only come to visit but seems to have decided to stay for the duration. At the end of the day I spoke to one colleague about a job possibility. Later I was asked by another colleague why I was nice to her. “She hates you and is always mocking you in class.” My response? “It does not affect me. I won’t change who I am. I won’t stop being kind.” I am the woman I want to be. Every day I can create the world I want to live in: compassion for others and compassion for my self.
Why would we deny ourselves the opportunity to be great? Now is the perfect time to be the person you always dreamed you could be because you already are.
Namaste!
Bianca
*Worth noting it seems that pettiness comes from the french word petit meaning small.
