Because we're right in our own minds doesn't mean others are wrong - One of the things I find myself having occasionally deal with in my own life is my membership in the "My way's right club!". It's not as though this is something I necessarily wished upon myself, it's just something that over time developed as a part of my life.

The reason I bring it up is because I think it's important, more importantly is that day after day I get a bit closer to turning in my membership card :-)

Believe it or not it's a bit more common than most people think. Even more ironic is that many of us don't realize we're members until someone takes the time to tell us so.

It's important to note that what I described above is very different from holding true to your convictions. What I describe is when we wind up taking things to far. When for whatever reason we just keep pushing and pushing "the way we think it should be" on

It also takes it's tole on many of life's other areas. After all would you want to be around someone who you felt didn't appreciate your opinion and you felt was always trying to change your opinion? If I had to guess I'd say no.

The good news is that once we acknowledge that such traits exist (even if they rarely ever surface :-)) we can begin to get past these little "demons" that try to sabotage our otherwise positive experiences and relationships. Being aware is half the battle. Combined with action we'll be able to turn in our membership cards for good!... Here's to your success, Josh Hinds
