    Humans need a freedom seldom mentioned: freedom from intrusion. We need a little privacy as much as we need vitamins or exercise or praise.

    A co-worker’s work habits are not your problem, they’re their problem– unless you allow yourself to be constantly annoyed by them and that becomes your problem. Your co-worker isn’t your problem; the desire to control others is your problem. You are volunteering for aggravation. Other people’s problems are other people’s problems. We aren’t in control of them in even the slightest way unless we have been given explicit supervisory obligations to fix them. Has anyone at your company asked you specifically to modify a co-worker’s behavior? Has someone else been assigned to supervise them? Live and let live. Spend your precious energy figuring out what you can do to be a more integral, essential worker.

      Spend your mental energy becoming a positive force for your business or workplace. Improve your own attitude and productivity. Don’t be dragged down by anyone else. Life will present us with plenty of challenges. Look for joys in life, not challenges that you have no responsibility or control. The only mistakes that should concern us are our own. Every mistake contains a lesson for us. Instead of stressing out about it, absorb the lesson and move forward more wisely. Have you ever noticed yourself repeating a mistake when you should have known better? Maybe you were focusing too much attention on the mistakes of others rather than remaining conscious of your own. Zero in on what’s in front of you today. Trying to improve yourself isn’t selfish, it’s smart. You are the only person in the world who you can improve.

    _”If someone greets me with a nice smile, and expresses a genuinely friendly attitude, I appreciate it very much. Though I might not know that person, or even understand their language, my heart is instantly gladdened… Kindness and love, a real sense of sisterhood and brotherhood, these are very precious. They make community possible, and therefore are an essential part of any society.”_

    *Dalai Lama* ✍️🌿

    _I believe that every human being has an innate desire for happiness and does not want to suffer. I also believe that the very purpose of life is to experience this happiness. I believe that each of us has the same potential to develop inner peace and thereby achieve happiness and joy. Whether we are rich or poor, educated or uneducated, black or white, from the East or the West, our potential is equal. We are all the same, mentally and emotionally. Though some of us have larger noses and the color of our skin may differ slightly, physically we are basically the same. The differences are minor. Our mental and emotional similarity is what is important._

    I was hoping to hear a great talk on a really interesting subject. But I’ve dropped out after only 5 minutes – I just can’t take any more “OK?” or “Right?” or “Alright?”

    So they conspired to commit fraud on a home buyer. Think about the buyer, the lender, and the appraiser who were misled by one person’s paranoia. That’s DEI. You are being lied to by thinking you’re getting one thing and getting a misrepresentation.

      So if your property is worth less because of your race, you wouldn’t want to do anything about it? You’re blatantly ignoring racism, and you’re being extremely sensitive if you feel bad for the racist home buyers.

      There’s no fraud: the house is sold as it is presented. Are you saying actors aren’t allowed to sell things anymore..? Obviously there is an element of deception that often exists in advertising, why are you using that to defend the racist buyers?

    After watching this video, I walked over to my neighbors house, who are going to put their home on the market. I offered to pretend to own the home during the appraisal.

    They declined and told me to never speak to them again.

      The way you integrated ally ship(first time hearing about it) and your rhetoric about noticing differences and investing in them to expand connections was incredibly touching.
