A lot of us are like that elephant in the image š
Trying very hard to āhelpā people⦠without first understanding what actually helps them.
Sometimes at work, in relationships, parenting, leadership, or friendships, we hand out oxygen cylinders to fish š š
Not because we are bad people.
But because we assume: āWhat works for me must work for everyone.ā
The elephant genuinely wants to save the fish.
But the elephant understands life through lungs, not gills.
And thatās what happens many times in life.
We advise people based on our experiences.
Judge them based on our strengths.
And expect them to heal, grow, think, cope, or succeed the way we do.
Real wisdom is not in forcing people into our world.
It is in understanding theirs first.
Before advisingā¦
Before correctingā¦
Before judgingā¦
Before trying to change someoneā¦
Letās pause and ask: āAm I helping themā¦
or just helping them become more like me?ā
Empathy is not agreeing with everyone.
It is understanding that different people breathe differently šæ
Do learn the important lesson from the tongue twister in this reel, but letās also have some fun.
Make a reel of you saying this tongue twister as fast as you can and share it. Do not forget to tag me.
Letās see who the top 10 fastest ones are!
Hereās the tongue twister for you:
Betty bought some butter, but the butter was too bitter. So Betty bought a bit of better butter to make the bitter butter better.
Many times people falter not because their connection is weak but because they pass through weak moments.
Whether such lapses should be pardoned is a personal choice.
But let us remember this: a one off mistake, small or big, does not define a personās character.
Losing a good soul connection because of a mistake could mean losing something truly precious.
P.S. Let us also remember that giving chances is meaningful only when the other person is regretful, willing to change, and sincerely trying to make things work.
Someone who keeps repeating the same mistake is not struggling with a moment of weakness but showing a pattern that needs to be addressed differently.
