MooreMotivation: Agreeing

Agreeing.

Let's lock in because this will hit you from a few different angles. Do you find yourself agreeing WITH people? Yes, agreeing with the actual person. I didn't say agreeing with what they do or say, but just agreeing with the person. Even if what they do doesn't align with your values. Agreeing even if you know what they are saying or doing is wrong. How did you get that way?? Choosing a person over your values. Choosing a person over what is right or wrong. Are you seeking unnecessary approval?? It's worth the ask.
Or the other way around, do you enjoy when people agree WITH you?? Even if they totally disagree with what you do, they still agree with you. No matter how wrong you are, they are right there agreeing. Ask yourself, what allows you to accept that?? What are you getting out of people agreeing with you even tho you know what you're actually doing, you wouldn't approve!

A lot of poor choices are made just by agreeing with a person instead of respecting the principle. On the flip side, accepting people who just agree with your poor choices, just to get 'likes,' is the biggest promoter of continued negative behavior.

Promise to pay more attention to the person and the act. It'll get very interesting when you do. Principles matter.
