“Once we understand the character and mind-set of people we know who tend to behave badly toward us, we need never be disappointed, carry a grudge, or use our precious energy to get even and pay them back. Why? Because we know these people will be true to their characters and conditioned natures. How can you expect kind and generous treatment from a person who believes in scarcity? When you serve a miser, you can never prosper and will always be disappointed. And if we forget that this is how such people have always behaved because of their fear- and lack-based conditioning, we will allow them to discourage or stop us from doing what we want or from being happy. Avoid people you know are unkind. If you must be around them, never fall to their level of consciousness. Use your time with them as a test. Pass the test by staying true to yourself at all times.”
Terry Cole-Whittaker, in “Live Your Bliss”
