Why is it so hard for people to make a decision, even if it turns out to not be a great one?
I have listened to a friend discuss her life, her job opportunities since she was let go three years ago, her automobile, whether to move to another state and now buying a water for her house.
In my mid years I began to study why people acted in certain ways. Why my reaction to situations would bring up anger. Psychologist may tell you it is some deep seated pain that is being touched. I will not discount this, however, I come from what I rememeber as a rather normal life.
I left the corporate world a little over 10 years ago. It is easy to forget how they program your thinking.
As I ruminated over the discussions I had with my friends during the last few days I began to remember that when I was in the corporate world the mantra was –You are part of a team, we are all in this together. To my benefit they also preached – You need to run your business like it was yours. This is the part I remembered and followed.
This weekend I caught up with several friends I had not talked to in months. The value of these conversations cannot be measured.
I learn so much from listening. Everyone has something they can do. One friend lost her job, the other is struggling with staying in a job that he does not enjoy. He is aware his health and family are being affected by his job.
Each has been given an opportunity to create their destiny.
