Moment... |
| The Y2K Bug |
|
As we begin the new millennium we can already learn a valuable lesson
from how well the "Y2K Bug" was handled all over the world.
There were very few challenges to face as a result of computer upgrades
and modifications. Those problems that did arise were minor in
comparison to what some people had predicted. This proves that by
working together,
all of the people in the world regardless of race, religion or culture
can do powerfully positive things when everyone shares a mutual respect.
A friend of mine commented on the ABC coverage of New Millennium
celebrations all over the world. He said, "You know it was
fascinating to see people from all different cultures share in the
excitement of the new millennium. Everyone joined together for one
purpose in the spirit of joy and enthusiasm for a positive future and
celebration of an exciting
past. The world actually got along with each other for a few
minutes."
When you are working and living from day to day, do you make a habit of
treating everyone with respect? Of course it is possible to respect a
person
and just not like them personally. There is nothing wrong with
differences of opinion because that is what makes the world so
wonderfully diverse. We have all heard the old saying, "Let's just
agree to disagree." Yet to be as productive and as well-balanced as
you deserve to be, you have to respect even those people who are
radically different from you. While none of us will ever fully
understand people in every way, we CAN extend our respect to
different ways of thinking than our own.
By opening your mind but not necessarily changing your own opinions and
values, it will allow you to see a clearer picture of who people are and
what makes them tick. Start this new millennium for yourself by making
the decision to not form negative opinions
of people with whom you have not had the chance to have personal
contact.
My challenge to you as we all begin this chapter of world history
together is to think boldly but act kindly,
to respect others but also respect yourself,
to work hard but play harder
and
to speed up your thinking but still quiet your mind.
HAPPY NEW MILLENNIUM!
