Did you ever walk into a room and notice you’re drawn to and repelled by certain people?
People are mirrors and we can use this knowledge to understand ourselves.
Maybe that new co-worker exhibits qualities you wish you had or an acquaintance is expressing qualities you dislike in yourself.
Maybe you need to work on being more open, genuine and vulnerable. Maybe you need to learn to accept your critical nature or relentless competitiveness.
It’s difficult to look within. It’s much easier to judge others. But if you’re ready to make positive changes in your life, you need to look deeper than your initial assessment.
You can start by reading up on your current relationships. Are you neglecting or even ruining it? How are you doing with confronting a narcissist or being calm in the midst of frustration with your child? When we can courageously search within, we’re more able to connect with the relationships, people and opportunities we’re most looking for.
