I’m also proud to say I don’t take anything personally, even when it is. Showing compassion for others who may not do what I want has helped me both keep a level head and build compassion for myself, especially when I fall short of my own expectations. My ego is now the passenger and not the driver. Focusing on what’s in my control has given me more than enough to work on, so I’ll never be sitting around again complaining about what others won’t do for me.
