?Shhhh….I’m going to tell you something that you may not want to hear, but it will make your life SO MUCH EASIER if you can remember this simple thing:
.
➡️THEIR life is NOT your life⬅️
.
It’s all too easy to finger point ? and decide that “they have this because of XYZ.” or “they’ve achieved this because of ABC.” or “they wouldn’t understand because they’ve never…”
.
While some of that *may* be true, or partially true – it’s not up to us to decide their life story, what they do with it, or how it’s told ?
.
?We can ONLY be responsible for ourselves? I know that’s cliché, and sometimes overused – but it’s very VERY true!
.
So next time you’re ? looking at someone else’s life, and you have your thoughts + perceptions + impressions about them, remember:
.
❌Don’t judge
❌Don’t assume
❌Don’t try to live their life out
❌Don’t pretend to know their story
❌Don’t speak poorly about them
❌Don’t envy
.
Because here’s the thing:
.
‼️Even if they told you their life story directly, you still wouldn’t know because it’s not your story‼️
.
Let that sink in. THEIR story is NOT your story. So stop trying to tell/live/speak it.
.
✅Tell YOUR story.
✅Live YOUR life.
✅Speak YOUR words.
