S PEAKING WELL
OF OTHERS EVERYDAY
By Rich "MR POS" Wilkins (Spiritual Version) I have been in the motivation business for over 40 years and one of the conclusions that I have come to is that life is simple until you throw people into it! People have a tendency to make things complex for others because of what they say about other people. If you don't have something good to say about somebody, then simply don't say it! I say this because of a very powerful natural law that says, "What goes around, comes around." Therefore always say good things about others and you will be much better off. Oh, I know it's not always easy and it does require that you go the extra mile for others. "Going the extra mile" is actually a biblical concept taught by Jesus when he was here on earth. It was a law that when a Roman soldier came into a village, one of the residents was to carry his load out to the outskirts of town to the first mile marker. Jesus taught people around him to go beyond what was expected and carry their load to the second mile marker. I believe this concept should be instilled in everything we do in life and everything we say about others. We should go the extra mile everyday by doing each task to the best of our ability and speaking well of others, even if they haven't said good things about us. When we have the attitude of speaking well about others everyday, it makes it very difficult for anyone else to say anything bad about us. Make it a habit to say something good about everyone you meet everyday!
