A thought for today: When you really make up your mind to like people, it becomes much easier to do just that, and liking people, and having them like you is very important not only to your happiness but to your well-being, and success in life as well.
We live in a world of people and every one of us is different. What they think about us is how well we do in life. So let’s practice liking people, the first step is to start the day with a prayer of thanksgiving.
Thanks for all your human relationships, now bring up into your thoughts one or two individuals who you find it difficult to like. Then deliberately practice liking them. Psalms 118:24: “This is the day the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it.”
