January 10th - Be Quick To Forgive

There are times when people will do things that make you mad. They will act in selfishly or without regards to your feelings. You feel hurt, you get mad.

Some folks hold a grudge. They make a bad situation worse by harboring negative emotions. They allow some small issue to grow into a bigger problem and they harm not only the relationship, but their own productivity.

Like water off a ducks back, let the minor things roll off. Forgive people for being human. Seek to understand their motivation and understand if they were intentional in the harming of your feelings.

When you cannot forgive, choose to quickly move your attention to other areas. Dwelling on things hurts you more than the other person.
