Musings + Affirmations: I view the experiences of others as valuable life lessons

People tend to complicate their own lives,

as if living weren’t already complicated enough.

Affirmation: I view the experiences of others as life lessons for myself.

I always consider the experiences of others to be opportunities to learn and to carve out a path for my life.

One of the advantages of co-existing on this Earth is learning from each other. Every face I look into tells a story that can have a profound impact on my life.

Every day is a learning experience for me.

I am conscious of the person I am, who I wish to become, and the life that I want to lead. And, I use the experiences of others to help me gauge the success of my own efforts to achieve it. I meld the lessons to create my book of life.

When I observe the happiness in others, I take a moment to try to analyze the source of that happiness. I give thought to my own situation and try to determine if I am focusing on positivity in my own relationships. I use some of the lesson that I learn from observing the experiences of other to help me secure my emotional happiness.

I also observe negative situations between people and try to assess what causes the breakdown in communication. I use these opportunities to introspectively assess my behaviors and actions to determine whether I play a part in fueling the negative relationships in my life.

Today, I accept my co-existence with others is a chance to make positive changes.

I recognize the unconscious and subconscious input of others to making me a better human being and embrace the life lessons of their experiences.

Homework/ Self-Reflective Questions/ Journal Prompts:

1. How easily do I adapt to changes based on my observation of external situations?

2. Do I readily share the lessons learned with the people I love?

3. How could I more advantageously use the experiences of others to learn life lessons?

Thoughts?

Here’s to an awesome week!!!
