Open minded, Positive thinking out of negative things

I have always been judgmental towards other people.. it is good to be judgmental towards others.. but i did too much of it. i tend to complain a lot when these people i met doesnt meet up to my expectations. I will either start to complain about them or criticize them on their behaviour, personality, attitude, background etc.... anything u can think of that gets in my way or does not favour me. yeah.. i know.. i am a pain in the ass... LOL..

Everything is changing everyday, whether u like it or not, realise it or not.. and people tend to grow mentally and physically when the time is right. this time here varies among different people. By meeting the right people/situation/material at the right time, it will tend to strike us in a way that will change our thinking and perhaps behaviour. Mine came when one of my lecturer said ' Why must you be so judgmental ? Why can't you just accept it with an open mind and take in whatever its good for you and leave the rest alone? '

BAMM!!! it struck me! it got me thinking... There are billions of people out there.. i cant just complain and criticise them if they do not favour me... Nobody is perfect.. this includes me.. i am not perfect, so why should i complain and criticise other people? I should accept everyone as it is including their bad and good.. be open minded... this is because there are so much things that I can learn from them due to their background, behaviour, personality, attitude etc.. Nobody is identical in this world.. Even the slightest difference can teach us something useful.

We must always think positive and seek for anything which is positive for us to learn from other people, but not focus on their negative things. Nobody wants to be criticize and being complaint about everyday right? so start looking for these positive things and think positively! Even there are lots of negative things, we must find every positive things out of the negative things..

We must be thankful ...
1. For the husband/wife that snores everynight, because he is at home asleep with me but not with anyone else
2. For the taxes i pay because it means that i am employed
3. For the mess i need to clean up after a party because i am surrounded by frenz
4. For the clotes that fit a little too snug because i have enough to eat
5. For a floor that needs mopping and sweeping because i have a home
6. For all the complains that i hear of the government because i have freedom of speech
7. For the parking spot i find at the far end because i am capable of walking and i am blessed with a vehicle
8. For the noise that i have to bear from my noisy neighbours because i can hear
9. For the pile of laundry and ironing because i have clothes to wear
10. For the weariness and aching of muscles at the end of the day because i am capable of working hard
11. For the alarm clock that goes on every morning because i am ALIVE!
12. For the lousy lecturer i get because i am able to distinguish good and bad + evaluate and analyse things
13. For my other half that nags and grumbles everyday because i am blessed with a beloved that cares me

there are many more u positive things u can get from these negative things.. just be think positively and open minded!
