One Way to Appreciate Others (224)

Introduction

There may be many ways to appreciate others and one of them is to learn from others, and when we learn from them we come to appreciate them more and they are happy to have helped us. This post is about one way that you can learn from others.


Everyone Has Certain Gifts

Everyone has certain gifts in life. Without exception everyone is good at something. Everyone has a good to excellent understanding of something in life that we do not have. That is something wonderful, that is why we have a multiplicity in life, so that all the gifts and talents can be shared amongst all of us, and all of us together produce all the wisdom in creation.

These gifts may come from life’s experiences, past lives and some their own innate inner nature and understanding. That is from their Being or Monad or Essence.


Find their Gifts

One way to appreciate others is to learn from their gifts, but before we can do that we have to find their gifts, find what they are excellent at. Usually they are good at what they like or love doing.

People can be good at hobbies, crafts, their job, teaching, speaking, writing, organising things, travelling, running, managing people, sports you name it. A good way to start to find their gifts is to find about their interests.


Observe then in Action

Even if we don’t know their gifts we can observe them to help ourselves find out, or just by observing them we can learn a lot as well. But to observe them we have to get in them action while they are working or dealing with people.

You know we can always learn from people in the bad and in the good.


Ask them to Teach You

If we can’t find out what a person’s gifts are we have to ask them what their gifts are or what they are good at or what they really love doing. What they love doing they will know a lot about. And if what they are good at is something that you lack or is something that you want to know about or develop in you then ask them straight out to teach you.


Conclusion

To learn something from someone else is wonderful and it is so much easier than learning by ourselves. It is also a lot quicker. It will also help us to appreciate others and it will open our mind to the fact that everyone has their gifts and things that they can pass on and teach and we also help them because by teaching us or passing on what they have learnt they make their life’s experiences and learnings useful.
