We’re all angels on the good days, aren’t we? Sure, it’s easy to be nice when everything’s working perfectly. People are patting you on the back. You’re ahead of your work. You’re feeling on top of your game.
But, what about those times when things aren’t working so well? That’s when we must choose to bring in our higher selves—especially when we feel least justified in having to do that.
Sometimes we feel like getting even or hurting another because we’ve been hurt. That’s when we’re called to rise above it all and choose to bring our highest and best selves.
Choose wisely whenever something isn’t going well. Take a deep breath and ask yourself: “What would my highest self do in this situation?” I promise you—you’ll never regret those actions.
