Among the people closest to you, how many can you say truly have your best interest at heart?
Just one person? Two, four, more? Whatever the answer, reflect upon how often these very same people push your buttons, causing you to contract and react. Be honest””it happens to all of us, all the time.
With these special individuals, however, we have a choice. We can give them the benefit of the doubt.
Whenever you become aware that your buttons have been pushed, focus on the fact that the offending parties mean no harm. Perhaps they acted carelessly, or spoke harshly. Maybe a flash of anger or irritation high-jacked their communication skills. Yes, it stings. Yet this occurred out of human imperfection, not ill will.
