If you have been reading my BLOG and liked THIS , you will enjoy the post below. I could be like JP Carroll and call this my new JAM. Screw it, he is stronger than me so... jam it is.
Welcome to today's JAM...
Easier said than done, but can be done!
10 YEARS - PLUS OR MINUS
Here’s something to think about. Are the majority of people around you today the same as they were ten years ago?
Do you think the person around you today will be around in ten years?
What’s the constant? You are.
Were some of the people shitty people ten years ago? Yep. Are there shitty people today? Yep. Will there be more in the future? Yep.
PERSPECTIVE
You know what I realized that changed my perspective? I’ve been the shitty one to others. I’ve been the toxic one. I won’t deny this and take responsibility for it. There’s some situations I wish I could change, while there are other times where I should have been shittier sooner.
THAT'S LIFE
That’s life, if you put yourself out there.
While I do NOT totally agree that you are the product of the five people you spend the most time with, I think this just says you don’t have the ability to lead, help or empower - or - are looking to validate a reason to forget where you come from or how you got where you are. I have also seen people do amazing things despite of their crap situations.
However, if you are being sucked into a pit or are dealing with a virus , get them out or get away.
Regardless...
Stop stressing about it because this is something you can control.
