A win/win situation....

Do the people in your life try to encourage your abilities or belittle your ambitions? Small minded people will try to discourage your abilities because they do not want to encourage you to succeed past their own success. Great mentors or leaders make you feel that you to can become great. How do people feel when they are around you? Do they feel empowered to become all they can be...... do they see the hope in their potential through your eyes? Or, do they feel small, insignificant in themselves, possibly that they can never measure up? The key to how you treat others is in your attitude and how you think about yourself.... if you are insecure you will tend to try to make other people feel insignificant or like they don't measure up in the big picture, because in your own subconscious mind you don't. If you begin seeing yourself in a different light you will  not only be changing your inner self  but the way you treat others in relationships. It's a win/win situation!
