People You Will Meet Today

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

People You Will Meet Today


Retrospective Thought —


As I look back on the last 24 hours of my life, a single thought resonates with me. I shared it with others, and their worlds were rocked.


What question is spurring this? —


Why can people be so difficult?


What’s the story behind it? —


I’ve met so many people in the world who think difficult people can harm and stop them. It doesn’t have to be that way.


Points to consider—


People you deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous, and surely.


They are like this because they can’t tell good from evil.


They are like you, with the same mind and possessing a share of the Divine. And so none of them can hurt you.


Marcus Aurelius was an intelligent guy.


Conclusion —


Everybody you meet today is more like you than you would like to admit. The playing field is more even than you thought.
