HELPING OR HURTING ?

Are you angry or disappointed with something at your work place or at home?

How do you approach it?

Are you helping or hurting?

If you are being honest with those around you and discussing solutions or exchanging ideas -you are helping.

If you participate in gossip and just talk negative with everyone but the party you may have issue with then- you are hurting.

You may be surprised if you just speak honestly and sincerely come to the table with positive suggestions and compromise. Beginning the conversation can be hard but once you do cross that bridge you can start on the way to open and honest communication. One thing I know for sure is that you will feel better about yourself and the world around you. When people lower their shoulders and look at each other with honest eyes good things happen.

Be honest with yourself and others and stop the negative talk...we all get protective and may carry baggage from someone who lied to us or hurt us in the past. That may make it hard to trust but if you want to grow and stop carrying that baggage you have to attack it head on.

Learn to trust again.

From the other side of the coin....Sometimes,an idea might seem negative,but there,is still some truth to it..What I hear,with our business being what it is,is MORE gossip than truth.I think the real answer is more information...The glass house mentality,everything in view as to how it is...I'm hearing this is all on it's way(every carrier)or the carriers will disappear for lack of drivers...
