What Makes People Tick?
by [Madisyn Taylor](
Many people are very different from ourselves and coming to a place of acceptance can make the road easier.
All people have their own way of being in the world. It is easiest to comprehend this basic yet profound fact when we consider that every human being on the planet occupies a distinct role in the universe. We grow up in different environments, affected by a unique range of influences. The preferences, values, and beliefs we embrace are frequently related intimately to our origins. And the need to individualize our experiences is instinctive, as doing so enables us to cope when we must face challenges on our own. Consequently, each of us has developed a perspective that is uniquely ours. Interacting peacefully and constructively with people from all walks of life is a matter of first understanding where they are coming from. Then we can adjust our expectations so that we avoid making undue assumptions about what they are about.
In the face of emerging interpersonal conflict, it is easy to assume that others are being difficult, unreasonable, or stubborn. We are apt to grow frustrated when someone in our environment does not share our opinions or feel compelled to support us in our endeavors. It is likely that the individual or individuals before us may simply possess differing notions with regard to what is and what is not important in this life. We can ease the tension that exists between us by reaffirming our belief in the fundamental right of all beings to determine their own destinies. To foster a harmonious relationship, we need to do our best to relate to the unique universes they inhabit. And as we discover what makes them tick, our ability to find a mode of interaction that is pleasing to both of us is enhanced.
When there are barriers keeping you from connecting with someone else, think of questions you can ask them to gain a more thorough understanding of their point of view. You may discover that in addition to the differences in perspective dividing you, they are subject to insecurities and other personal issues that influence their way of seeing the world. It is likely that you will never fully grasp the myriad complexities embodied by humanity, but you can go a long way toward encouraging mutually satisfying relations by reaching out to others in the spirit of sympathetic comprehension.

DailyOM Course Spotlight
[Mojo Weight Loss](
by Jacqui Justice
"If you are overweight and feeling sluggish, somehow you have lost your mojo along the way. Reclaim your mojo and reclaim your health and vitality!" Do you struggle with weight loss, finding it difficult to stay motivated and committed to your plan? Have you gained and lost the same 10 or more lbs. more times than you care to remember? Do you perceive dieting as unpleasant, difficult and restrictive? Does the mere thought of dieting make you feel defeated before you even begin? Does your happiness and self-worth depend on the numbers on the scale? Have you lost the belief that you can ever reach and maintain your weight loss goals? If so, then it is your mindset and approach that is the real issue here - not the diet or your inability to stick to it. What I'm saying is that you are going about this the wrong way, AND it's making it MUCH harder than it has to be. A more successful approach is to use what I call the "Mojo Mindset" which taps into the power of your inner mojo to help you achieve the results you are looking for.
