Embrace Whatever you Are

In this week’s episode, Jill and Tony said that they are both perfectionists, but their conclusion about whether they are high maintenance relates to others’ perception of them.

Jill advised listeners to just be whoever and whatever they are because they are not going to change others’ perception of them.

Meanwhile, Tony advised listeners that if they find others call them high maintenance or any other label with a negative connotation, they should find out why. Perhaps their perception comes out of not knowing the person at all.

Jill and Tony have other tips:

• Do not be quick to judge or label others
• Look within to determine what makes you a good person. Strengthen those, of course, but also pick at least one inner trait to improve
• Love yourself. Loving someone else will be difficult if you don’t

How have you been labeled? Did the labels fit? If not, what did you do about it? Leave your answers in the comments section.
