Message #182 HOW TO DEAL WITH PEOPLE
There is no way you can go through life without dealing with people. But who teaches you HOW to deal with people? Not many. Here’s one thing that I’ve found that works…
GIVE UNCONDITIONALLY
See, one of the things people do is they treat people who they feel can help them out like kings and people that they don’t think can help them out, like dirt.
First of all, we are all the same…we’re trying to be the best that we can be and some people are at a temporary low, so don’t kick them when they’re down. It’s not you versus them, it’s you versus you. You don’t know what they have been through in the past, they could have gone through hell. People are at different points in their lives.
Secondly, just because it doesn’t “look” like someone can help you out, doesn’t mean they CAN’T.
They may have some great idea for you or know someone who CAN help you out.
The point is, don’t give to get something back.
Give for the sake of giving.
One of the most powerful ways to feel happy and fulfilled is to give, unconditionally. And don’t just give physical gifts, try to…
Give a compliment
Give a smile
Give support
Give a shoulder to cry on
Give unconditional love
Give an honest opinion
Give help, when needed
Give “your word”
Give your ear and be a good listener
Just give without expecting anything in return.
“The true test of man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good.”
