Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. – Carl Jung
As a follow up to yesterday’s email about getting angry I thought I would share this quote.
This might be a little deep for me so you will have to do the deep introspection on your own.
Spend a minute or two thinking about what irritations in your life can lead to a better understanding of yourself.
Does your impatience while waiting in line reveal some selfishness?
Does your intolerance of others reveal some inner insecurities?
Building a mature, independent self sometimes requires taking steps that might not be easy or even pretty but will yield great results over the long run.
Make it a great day.
