5. Please Understand Me II, by David Keirsey
Aug 13 2008, 10:52 AM EDT
This was quoted in another book, but the original source is "Please Understand Me II," by David Keirsey--- If I do not want what you want, please try not to tell me that my want is wrong . . . I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to understand me. That will come only when you are willing to give up changing me into a copy of you. I may be your spouse, your parent, your offspring, your friend, or your colleague. If you will allow me any of my own wants, or emotions, or beliefs, or actions, then you open yourself, so that someday these ways of mine might not seem so wrong, and might finally appear to you as right - for me. To put up with me is the first step to understanding me. Not that you embrace my ways as right for you, but that you are no longer irritated or disappointed with me for my seeming waywardness. And in understanding me you might come to prize my differences from you, and, far from seeking to change me, preserve and even nurture those differences. Do you find this valuable? |

My favorite quotes change regularly, depending on what's going on in my life. It could be a recent success or failure, a challenge in progress, or something to keep me focused on a long term goal. These four are my current favorites....** Whether you think you can, or you think you can't; YOU'RE RIGHT. ** Opportunities are never lost. Someone will take the ones you miss. ** The only things that stand between a person and what they want in life are the will to try it, and the faith to believe it's possible. ** Even if you are on the right track, you WILL get run over if you just sit there.
