Don’t Find a Fault…Find a Remedy
“Don’t find a fault…find a remedy” was posted for all to read on a local restaurant’s billboard as I drove by the other day. It amazes me when these types of messages “appear”. This one in particular really “spoke” to me and I felt compelled to post about this message and what it meant to me.
Have you ever been a participant in a finger pointing match? Or have you worked hard on a project and had someone point out all the flaws even though the majority of the project was a success?
Finding fault is a habit of self-importance, superiority and control. It is negative, to say the least, and may have long-term consequences in our relationships with those that we work with, are friends with or are related to.
In fact, most often when things don’t go 100% right, the person involved has already probably made their own list. So why would you want to bring them down when you could lift them up?
Wouldn’t this be a different world if there were no failures and only lessons learned? So I challenge you to only have positive uplifting words come out of your mouth this next week. Just see how different you will feel and how different those around you will feel. By lifting someone else up you will also be lighter.
