Judging Vs Accepting

“Through the practice of devotion to God, I was coming to learn that preserving loving relations in this world required much forgiveness, tolerance, patience, gratitude, and humility. An essential virtue of humility is to accept others for what they are, despite differences. I contemplated again how the tendency to judge others is often a symptom of insecurity, immaturity, or selfishness, and I yearned to rise above it. Everyone is a child of God. God loves all of His children. If I wish to love God, I must learn to love those whom He loves.” - RNS

Who are your people?

one day spent with someone you love can change everything; if you apply the 80:20 principle to your personal life, you will get even greater returns. Take your social circle as an example; 20 % of ur frds vll give u 80% of ur joy; yet v try to fit everyone in. it’s impossible; we accept invitations to events we are not even sure we want to go to but we can’t find a couple of hours for closest friend who always puts a smile on your face. Far better to identify the top 20% of people in your life who make you happiest, and schedule time with them first. I am not suggesting cutting anyone out of your life and of course not everyone we love makes us happy all the time, but you have to make sure you prioritize those who matter most to you; find your tribe- nurture it , build it , grow it bcoz that vll help u become the person you want to be - Excerpt from Do less get more
