Everyday, we come across different people. Each encounter affords us the privilege of creating some connections, called relationships.
However, some folks usually complain after some years in their lifetime that they've been coming in contact with the wrong people. They say so, because they haven't seen any tangible positive difference or impact in their lives when reflecting back.
The problem is that, some times, we come across less of the people we need to meet, and more of the people we should have missed; thereby missing the people we should meet.
Notwithstanding, we can grow in the direction of the people we want to meet. The standard sets itself; that is you desire people you want in your life and go for them.
When I started meeting certain persons in my life, I could feel it. Similarly, when you meet people you should, and need to meet, you will know.
Two options will be up to you, whether to unwaveringly stick around to see them change, or you change them rather than meeting other persons to change you, (in the case of meeting people you can help which may have been destined for them to cross your path).
Some people are not for you, but to introduce you to the right people you must meet. It is not that they are not nice, but their contents are not what you need to be fed with. Rather you need a different, or perhaps higher content to grow.
For me, I carefully select my friends. This is not because I am so special, but it is, so I can tap into their contents too.
There are people you can influence. No two ways about that; but there are people who will diminish you with their ideologies that you can not help, no matter how hard you try.
Sometimes, I feel like pouring my heart, and then suddenly realize that it is not gasoline, and I have to restrained myself.
If you can graciously meet people, and see them making up for you, as well as you making up for them, it will be such a nice experience. But where can you find that?
Have you ever seen someone, and you desire to be close to that person? To not just be seen, but also, to stay under the environment in which this person dispatches value? This is a good desire, as it will help you grow.
You grow in the environment that looks like you, or reflects who you want to be. Following someone who is already where you want to be is one of the fastest ways to grow, and this can make you.
As an individual you need a making, not only to change you physically, but also your inward person which can be expressed outwardly too.
Just a little reminder, if you had not subjected yourself to the making you went through, you would not have been who you are presently. The place of your growth and transformation lies in the place of your willingness.
Show me that person you are willing to learn from, and you can see yourself right in front of you. Show me the people you allow to influence you, and you will see who you will become in the nearest future.
Make a choice today.
I'll love to read from you from the comments section below.
