You Can Empower Someone Just By Listening | almamyrtle.com

I hope you are remembering how awesome you are.

If you can, help take the weight off of someone's shoulders by just listening to them. Sometimes, when a person doesn't feel like they're "where they should be" in life, all they really need to get them to that amazing place is support. Support from people who truly understand & support from the ones who love them.

Try to listen rather than "suggest" or dictate. Try to feel them out & just hear them. There enough people & situations out there telling that person that they are not good enough,"suggesting"(throwing random suggestions out at them that make them even more anxious...or suggestions that don't even make sense), that they are not doing it right etc... .

Today, remember that you have the power to help someone by simply listening without judging. Chances are, that person has been stuck with hearing their own negative voice because they feel so misunderstood. They're probably tired of hearing that they are not trying hard enough, or that they are not going to make it.

If you feel bad for the person, try to redirect that energy by highlighting the great things that they have accomplished so far. Remind them that their efforts count &...lovingly remind them to breathe.

They CAN do it & so can YOU! <3

Love you!
