Do Your Best Regardless
By Mohammed | January 15, 2010
Whenever a natural disaster of great importance, such as the one in Haiti, we regain a sense of perspective of just how powerless we are when solving the big issues that often affect this world. Despite this feeling of powerlessness, there are those who try to do regardless and, in trying, ultimately change our world for the better.
One of these great people is Mother Teresa.
Today, I would like to share with you 8 life lessons that Mother Teresa has taught us all and which, especially in times of difficulty, we should try our best to live up to.
1. People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centred; forgive them anyway.
2. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.
3. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; be successful anyway.
4. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be frank and honest anyway.
5. What you spend years building, someone may destroy overnight; Build anyway.
6. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.
7. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.
8. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you have got anyway.
Be like Mother Teresa. Be content that you cannot solve every problem, help every person or win every battle. However, do not let this stop you from giving your best in everything you do.

This message transmutate real life principles and how deal with the people. It points to the fact that we need to lower our expectations on what people can do for us but rather focus on what we can do for them. This to me is key.
