#Repost @kathi.b.coaching • • • • • • This quote brings up a lot for me this week. Because it’s been a constant struggle and equally a constant observation of those around me throughout this year. . I can be as judgemental as the next person. I will own that I have been probably more judgemental than most in the past. It’s one thing that I have really done a lot of work on, especially in the Covid -era. . The thing of it is, this has been a super hard year for every person. No one has escaped this invasive journey. No one has been bypassed by some level of impact. No one. For the first time, possibly in ever, each human is facing a common enemy. But every person has had their own experience. . Common enemy, different circumstances. . You can’t know what other people have had to deal with. What demons they face alone in isolation. What battles they fight. . Nor can you understand what information they have taken in. At what level they have understood that information. What factors they have folded in to the mix. Yes I said “fold it in”. . It’s been fucking hard. We have all had to do really hard things this year. And it’s not over. We are going to be called upon to do more hard things. . As I walk around outside and find myself getting more and more angry at the people who aren’t wearing masks, and don’t comply with rules of science, I constantly remind myself that it’s not for me to enforce the rules. It’s not for me to judge what other people know and understand. It’s not for me to judge other humans in times of great difficulty. . The only thing left to me is to evaluate my personal risk tolerance and to act accordingly. In Coronavirus as in life, you decide your own actions, set your boundaries and use your voice to maintain those boundaries. . Now is not the time to judge other people for doing the best they can with what they have. . Everyone is struggling. If you can get through the day with some level of comfort and enjoyment, you’ve done well. . I believe in you. You CAN do hard things. 🥰 #dontjudge #bekind #setboundaries #constantwork #dohardthings #innerworkfirst #coachinglife #unsolicitedadvice #covidkindness #wearehuman #brenebrownquotes (at Fátima, Portugal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDRVjgcl7Y_/?igshid=1arg4ajoksc9g
