5- Think positively. I don't mean the
“spazzed-out” sales pitch kind of thinking promoted by what your
old man thinks of as 'sharks'. I mean the genuine kind of thinking
positive where you are always trying to see the good in someone you
are talking with, their ideas, your ideas, someone else who you are
talking about, etc. etc. That does not mean you agree with the
disagreeable, the irresponsible, or the things you feel uncomfortable
about. Even then you can express your disagreement in an honest way
and encourage a better route, if there is one, without being
condescending. Right when you are talking with someone or listening,
remind yourself that that individual is a child of God and that you
inherently love this person whether you agree with him or not. He
will sense that spirit and more readily trust you and your judgement.
Remind yourself of that when you are talking to yourself too.
