Look Within First

Criticism reveals more about you than them

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

Before "blaming" someone, ask yourself first, how much better are we than them?

The habit of finding fault, criticizing, complaining, and gossiping doesn't make anyone look better.

Before criticizing someone, think carefully.

Whether what you say is constructive or "destructive".

Always "finding faults" with others,

But forgetting to look in the mirror at yourself.

Sometimes we may "look worse"

Than the person we are talking about.

Learn to look at others in a positive light.

No one is so "bad"

Or "evil" that there is no "good",

Even ourselves.

Sometimes there are still some things

That others "can't accept".

Try to change to look for "good points", overlook the "bad points",

And "appreciate" them sincerely.

Remember that what we say about others

"Reflects" the identity

Af the person who is talking.

Don't "blame others"

To make yourself "look good".

This method "doesn't work!"

Think carefully...!!!
