Don’t try to Change Others

Don’t try to change others, work on yourself instead. Your response to others is always your responsibility, and the right response ensures respect all round

Welcome to March into relationship. This month we are going to look at a collection of the Daily Insights on relationships. These insights are written by David Riddell the founder of Living Wisdom and are compiled as a result of over 30 000 hours of counselling. The daily insights gives us a new way of looking at relationships and the challenges they bring.

Today’s insight challenges us to work on ourselves rather than trying to change the other person. Others people’s attitude and behaviour can really annoys but this insight is encouraging us to dig a bit deeper and take responsibility for our responses to them rather than insisting that they change. This taking responsibility for ourselves is something that we will look at throughout the month, after all we only have the power to change ourselves.
