There is a famous comedian who had asked someone about
what is the secret of his success attracting the audiencess when he appeared on
stage. The comedian replied, “When I am in front of the audience and do not get
a good response, I do not directly blame them and say,” these people are dead
from the neck up, those people are bunch of dead statues. “I have never done
that. I just ask myself, “What is wrong with me today? Audiences there are
alright, but I am wrong”.
One of the ways that we are getting perfect
performance is to improve ourselves. But before we improve ourselves, we should
evaluate ourselves first. We do not need to blame others for the mistake and
failures that may occur.
Like someone in front of a mirror, he automatically
will know which part is less from himself and he will improve it immediately so that other people who see will not think
bad. Actually others is a reflection of ourselves. They will assess, either
with their words and attitude towards us. So what we need to have is the
sensitivity to understand what others see in us. Maybe we also need to use the
“glasses” from others see ourselves more objectively.Do not in a hurry to judge
others, but take a look at ourselves first. So, let us continue to improve
ourselves. Not only in our looks only, but the important thing is our attitude
and character, because that is what will determine the extent to which the
success that we obtain. It is not easy to transform ourselves totally, but we
can do it by little. By training and familiarizing ourselves, we do not do previous
bad habits and replace them with good habits. And one thing to remember, ask
for strength, hope and wisdom of the Holy Spirit to lead and guide our steps so
that what we do can be pleased to God.
