Help turn the page around
Hello Readers,
I'm sorry if you guys wanted me to blog but i haven't in a while. Its just that I haven't been getting any ideas, I wanted some inspiration. That inspiration came to me when I had to give a TED talk in school. I was just thinking of something in the bus and then in school my teacher said,"You are giving a TED talk." Coincidentally I was thinking of a topic in the bus and I was able to write mt talk based on that. My topic was how everyone looks at the mistakes of others but overlooks the good.
I think we should really give a chance to others see what they have to say because sometimes things are not what they look like. I wouldn't have know this without my friends, they told me about my weaknesses so that i could work on it and turn the page around, and honestly I am very thankful to them. The first thing we always notice in others is the bad qualities in them, we find every possible way to find an excuse for not hanging out with them, because then we wont feel guilty about leaving them or not paying attention to them, we can just blame it, on them. I know a lot of you out there are trying your best to deny the fact, but come on, no one knows what you're thinking right now, just be honest with yourself.
My TED talk was long done so why am I writing about this now? Well, this year a lot of new students have joined school and I still noticed these things going on. I know they might not stop but an attempt is worth it. Helping others identify their weakness is not bad, but we need to make sure its not in a way that's offending. We need to help them come up with ways to get over it. At the end of the day that someone could be you and I'm certain none of us want to feel like an outcast.

"People are only going to treat you the way you treat them."
In cliche:
"You get what you give."
So the best way of helping them according to me is:
- Help them spot the black dot
- Be nice and supportive about it
- Help them figure out a way to improve
- Turn the page around
- Let it go and move on
