Today's Fuel

I was inspired to write this after hearing about a comment made today in a staff meeting.  It seems in this staff meeting there were two colleagues who had had words in the past.  One colleague chose the high road by paying the other a heartfelt and public compliment.  The thought that immediately ran through my mind was "kill them with kindness."

It can be so easy to hold onto ill feelings and hold a grudge which only lowers you to the other person's level.  Remember, it takes two people for an argument to occur.  Positivity is the mindset you have when you are happy.  It all starts inside.  You cannot exude positivity with a grudge and the way to overcome that grudge is to be happy.  Make that extra effort to smile, be courteous, or, as in this case, pay a compliment.  The results may or may not fix the relationship, but I guarantee it will kick start the happy inside you.

Smile in the mirror each morning, be happy and kill them with kindness :)
