Understanding – Characteristic / Virtue of the Week

Be the change you wish to see in the world – make a difference.

How to use this card:

Being mindful of a virtue each day will change your world and ours.

• Read this card each morning.
• At the end of each day take five minutes to reflect on your behaviour in regard to this card.
• Acknowledge yourself for how you displayed this virtue, or if you had the opportunity to practice the virtue and didn’t, then ask yourself what you would do differently next time – use it as a learning.
• You will find that over time you become much more in control of your feelings & emotions and grow emotionally, intellectually & spiritually stronger day by day.

Being kind costs nothing and it is worth so much it is priceless.

How to practice Understanding:

This week I asked people what they would like others to understand – here’s what they said:

• That sometimes everybody just needs a hug without any judgement because we all have our crosses to bear – especially in the workplace
• That the human race would benefit from accepting that we are all unique and have different purposes in life
• When driving keep to the left unless overtaking – it’s a road rule. Traffic flows much better when everyone cooperates
• Listen to others point of view, they are coming from a different place to you because of different experiences, beliefs, thoughts, attitudes. We all learn, and teach, each other. Be open to learning and growing.
