Thoughtful Thursday is all about positivity and working towards a better world.
For Thoughtful Thursday,
We want to be the difference.
Today goals, ambitions, and missions are put to the side for a more important topic.
Spreading positivity.
Here at Get@it your goals and ambitions are important to us but so is spreading love and positivity. In doing so we are gonna talk about communication and how we can improve on it.
Most of us are going through life with many struggles and demons just weighing us down. When is the last time you had someone call out the blue and ask “How are you doing?” Now, keep in mind, that scenario is a two way relationship. That friend has also not heard from you, out of the blue, and you asking them “How are you doing?” And no I am not talking about texting. Texting is so impersonal, that it is an insult at times when you really want to talk to someone and they have to put it in a text. If they wanted to put it all down so they can read it over and over and over again, they would just get a journal and not both reaching out. They are reaching out so they can cry to you and have your shoulder for just a moment.
Be there for them.
To have relations we need to be there in the moment with a phone call or better yet in person. We cannot always be there in person but a phone call can be just as personal at times. These days most people just ignore phone calls, even from numbers they know. We need to do better and reach out to someone, anyone we call family or friend. We may even owe some of them an apology for the last time we talked. Don’t let your pride keep you from that friend. Life is too short for such misunderstandings.
I know you are doing great on your progress with your goals you have listed (right?). Today, take a small break, look through your phone and see who is someone you have not contacted (CALLED) in quite some time. There is one. And if there is not there may be someone you may owe an apology to or someone that you think owes you an apology. These pent up feelings will not go away and only continue to poison you until it’s resolved. Why carry that on your shoulders? is it not heavy enough with normal life problems. Let’s give this one a shot and try to get this resolved. Could be a friend or a family member or a co worker.
Just call one person and ask “How is life treating ya?” and then listen. Do not go off about how your day was unless they ask back. If they have not asked, they are not done yet.
We can all do better, to have a better world. One Visit/Call at a time. You under estimate how much of an effect this will have on the person you called. Take the time to do this and continue your progress on those goals, you are kicking butt on.
“To have a better world, We need to do better”
Stay Awesome and Get@it
