How To Be Kind To Someone You Don't Like

from Intelligent Intoxication · host Terri Bradway

When we don’t “like” someone, it’s often because we aren’t compatible with them or to them. It’s likely that our values, views, habits, passions, or priorities just don’t match.  When you notice that you don’t like someone, try this: “I’m noticing that I don’t like him/her. I wonder if it’s because we aren’t compatible.” I invite you to consider these questions: When do you notice not wanting to spend time with certain people? How willing are you to give yourself the permission to be incompatible with others? When do you notice expecting others to change so that you will like them? When do you notice forcing yourself to change so that others will like you? How willing are you to dig a little deeper when you notice having resistance to another person?
