Your belief in your abilities may be stronger sometimes than others. As a result, your ability to feel optimistic about succeeding in all aspects of your life or with projects wavers depending on your mood.
After the Quantum Leap event (one of my 3 day programs) in Las Vegas some time ago, I was asked about the tragic shooting at the Amish schoolhouse. I’m glad it was asked because I saw a very important principle put into action by the Amish community… The next day after the shooting, the Amish community of Lancaster County told the killer’s family that they forgave him for what he’d done. That’s right. They forgave him…You may be thinking “But James, how could they?” Well, here’s the deal… You don’t forgive for the other person. You forgive for yourself. Now I’ll ask you, “How could they not forgive him?” |
