What predominates your life?
Is it,
Money,
Envy,
Jealousy
Self-righteousness,
Fame,
Humility,
Trust,
Gentleness,
Patience,
Or Respect.
Whatever it is, it will determine the inner joy and peace that resonate within you.
Predominate is the act of exceeding outside of the norm, and living on a higher plain, but predomination can also slip into the negative as seen from the list above and become a destructive element that ruins your life.
Be careful, for example, with self-righteousness. People endowed with this character trait are predominately control by correctness. Their control button goes off, and their corrective attitude comes to the forefront, as soon as they find one tiny mistakes. These are people who will find something wrong with whatever you do. It doesn't matter whether they are right or wrong. Their philosophy is not to look over anything that someone else does wrong. If you want to live a healthy life then walk away from such people.
Seek out people who are predominated by true north principles of
Trust,
Humility,
Gentleness,
Patience,
Kindness,
And respect.
These are people who walk a higher road. They are not led by,
Jealousy,
Envy,
Money,
Self-righteousness,
Or fame.
Their own achievements bring them joy and their lives are predominately encircled with building other people up. Predominant people who walk in true north principles know the value of
Letting people grow into what whatever they are supposed to be,
Support,
And most important of all, they know when to keep their mouths shut.
What kind of predominant person are you?

When it comes to my kids, sometimes a roll of duct tape comes in handy to prevent comments I shouldn't make. Otherwise, I'm so impressed with how they have grown up.
ReplyDeleteLearning to take the north road isn't always easy but I'm working at it. Learning to provide support and happiness for myself and not placing that burdens on others is my biggest barrier. Thanks for your wise words.
I think your advice to seek out people who are predominated by the true north principles of Trust, Humility, Gentleness, etc. is wise. I am not sure what kind of predominates person I am.

Thank you for this Patricia - a good reminder of others and more importantly of ourselves and ways in which we have a particular predominant attitude. I don't know what kind of predominant attitude I have but I am reminded by you as to what the important ones are.
