Beliefs and Behaviour


Sometimes we get so passionate about our beliefs we become almost rabid in our ways of communicating them.

Whether its politics, religion, fitness, the environment, spirituality, or whatever, we can get so caught up in our own personal beliefs we become guilty of pushing. And we will keep an arsenal of reasons to excuse our behaviour, even though we may not be so kind when others push their beliefs back at us.

It turns into an ugly war of words.

I know. I have been guilty of this myself a few times over the years. It happens easily to passionate people.

That doesn’t make it right. I know this too.

There is a fine balance to respecting your own views and respecting the views of others. Learning how to float through this delicate dance of behaviour takes honesty, integrity, kindness, and a heaping pile of respect.

Mastering the dance takes confidence in yourself and a deeper understanding that you could be right, and you might possibly be wrong, and that’s okay. Reaching this level raises you to a higher level of wisdom and brings a more peaceful energy to the world.

Good luck. ♥ Louise
