If you are reading this, you don’t even know how much I appreciate you. You have given me light and hope in my darkest times. You have given me motivation when I didn’t have any. I want to say thank you for helping give me something to strive for. I am not alone because I am able to connect with you. We are all in this together and there are so many other things you could be doing but your here with me.

Blog #64 – The Golden Rule is Flawed!
Let people thrive by being themselves. Do not try to change people or tell them how they should be doing things. Everyone is different and will come up with a different way to do the same thing. It may not be the way you would do it but no one is like you.
Even the “Golden Rule” is flawed because everyone wants to be treated different and if someone treats us how we don’t want to be treated then we get upset. They may be treating us that way because it is a different culture or any number of reasons.
It is our own expectations that causes us discomfort. The expectations of what others should be doing. The expectations of how we should be treated. The expectations that you are owed something. The expectations of who people are.
Trade your expectations for appreciation and your whole world changes in an instant.
Tony RobbinsWith no expectations you leave nothing to chance. You become a leader and do things for yourself. You are not waiting around for other people to do things for you. With no expectations everything becomes a surprise and a blessing. Expectations are always a let down. Lower the bar and appreciate all the small things.

Blog #57 – How much you know means nothing. This is what really matters to influence people.
Show them how much you care.
When someone does something for you, let them know how much it means to you. Show them you are grateful and their deed did not go unnoticed.
Good behavior must be rewarded if you want it to continue. Do not expect things out of people but appreciate it when someone does something for you.
