Support!

Accepting support from others or providing support to others can sometimes be difficult.

Often we are so caught up in our daily lives that providing support to someone else in need can seem like a burden to us or an intrusion to others. However, most of us naturally will provide what support we can in times of need.

Receiving support from others may feel awkward or uncomfortable because of our internal pride or belief systems. We have a natural tendency to want to do everything ourselves. We are often taught that we should look after ourselves and be independent. While these traits are admirable they do not provide us with a complete picture.

Learning or Re-learning to accept and provide support is a valuable process. It humbles both the giver and the receiver and the lessons learned can change the directions of the lives of both parties. It creates a collective environment and more energy is drawn to assist in the support. It helps both to refocus on what is important and move toward goals or dreams.

Are you a good supporter of others? Can you receive support from others well?

Learn to give and receive support with grace!
