#Theweekthatwas @ 21/09/2025
A week of reality checks taught me that:
Many of us, as we get older, sadly tend to listen more to refute than to understand
We need to be consistent in placing dreams in the heads of our children
Only when we embrace imperfection do we open the doors to our potential
If people do not feel safe to be themselves in the workplace, you will never get the most out of them
If you sit in the backseat of your life, you significantly diminish your chances of getting to your intended destination
It's hard to show compassion to others when we don't show it to ourselves
Ignorance breeds fear, animosity and hatred
The Almighty is love but love is not almighty
There's no greater love than the fear of disappointing the one you love
When we view the helper as a hindrance, their help, no matter how sincere, only leads to repulsion
Liberty, freedom and justice are precursors to peace
The simplest way to identify our own biases is to flip the script by placing ourselves in the other party's position
If we're not deliberate about it, we end up fitting the important people in our lives in instead of building them in
Sometimes the universe talks to us in interesting and comedic ways
