Every one has a personality of his/ her own. There are many people who don't (or shall we say cannot) take a decision on their own. Even in small matters like which dress they should they put on, they will ask people at home, friends or even colleagues. We must be independent in deciding things for our selves.
In daily life we encounter so many people, and so many issues. If we always try to hide behind another person to discuss and decide matters for us, we will never progress. If you are alone , you cannot wait for some one to come and decide on our part. Be independent.
In life, you will realise that there are people who don't like you. There may be no reason, but you two cannot move together. The other person may retort you in the presence of others.It will be a wise decision to discard such people from your thoughts.
You come to know that a person you are trying to befriend or who is very 'chummy, chummy with you in the presence of others, speaks volumes against you.He is trying to befriend you with some ulterior selfish purpose. It is better not to ask for his explanation, because he will always deny, that he has uttered any offensive remarks against you. Just leave his company and forget about this chapter in your life.
If someone is angry with you, ask him to be frank and tell you the reason for his annoyance. If the person is annoyed for a genuine reason, you must tender your apology to him.If the person is annoyed on some imaginary incident, try to clarify the situation. If he still does not make up with you, it is better to leave such a person alone. You should have nothing to do with him.
It is always a good idea to listen to your inner voice, so that you stand on your own, and earn the respect of others.

Well said Usha! I speak from expeience in relation to me and someone I know. This woman reminds me of me in my past when I was extremely indecisive and it is rather off-putting actually. It tends to attract people who are inclined to disrespect and mistreat you. Better to be independent, think for yourself, learn to trust your inner voice as you say. ;) <3
ReplyDeleteThank you Elly. I wrote this keeping youngsters in mind. It takes them time to make up their mind.
DeleteSo true Usha ji and so important as well this message...We need to listen to our inner voice and take our own decisions...We cannot live life holding someone elses' hands always
ReplyDeleteExactly Naba. Youngsters,today are lost in a maze indecsisiveness.
DeleteTrue ma'am i always listen to my inner voice and i stand by my decision right or wrong. No regrets if things go wrong:)
ReplyDeleteA powerful write, Usha, and one of the hardest lessons I had to learn as a young adult is some people just don't like you even if you did them no wrong...move on...it is not always about you. Sometimes we may remind someone of a person they do not like, or they envy something they think we have...perception is often key. I like my independence and worked really hard to get there:)
ReplyDeleteInner voice is the best guide for us. Well said.
