The ONE Amazing Tool In YOUR Own Personal Development That Will Set You FREE
One of the reasons I continue to steadily grow in my own personal development, is because of this one tool that I use in my own life that works successfully for me and brings me a lot of inner joy. This one tool that I use is probably something that most of you are very aware of, but maybe just need a simple reminder. The following words will put you in awe of the simplicity of this one tool, that we may sometimes forget. This knowledge has allowed me to write confidently on personal development.
This tool is so amazing that if you started to be more aware of this tool in your life, you would see your own growth and success in your life begin to come more smoothly and even better more, collectively with other like minded people.
This one amazing tool that I use that brings much joy to me, is simply accepting people for who they are.
Accepting people for who they are, their good and not so great qualities is the one powerful tool that will bring much joy and a lot more ease in your daily life.
As I am growing and evolving for myself, I continually make an honest effort to accept people for who they are. Learning to start accepting people for who they are, is a powerful tool in my own personal development.
The Good and The Bad
Sometimes, it gets difficult, because some people may not be at my wavelength or understanding of certain things. But, I do make this honest effort to really accept people without any judgment. I know that we live in a world where it is so easy to misjudge people, but the truth is that you don’t really know people unless you totally walked in their shoes.
Just being very accepting of other people is a very powerful tool that you can use to write your own personal development story. When I am in that state of being accepting of others regardless of whatever high goals I have set for myself and my own sometimes very rapid development, I remind myself that everyone living and breathing on this planet is unique, special, and has something very valuable to offer the world. This means that even if certain people don’t necessarily agree with what I have to say, I still accept them for their opinion and who they are. The opposite is also true, even, if I don’t necessarily completley agree with what another person has to say, I accept them for who they are.
Is this process of accepting people sometimes very difficult? Yes. Is it easier to complain or judge others a lot of times when they are doing something “wrong”? Yes.
But accepting people for who they are, in the long run, truly becomes very beneficial for both you and the other person.
Release The Ego’s Need To Control
We are mistakenly led to believe by the ego, that we have all this control over people. This control is not real. Yes, you can scare people and make people fearful, to try to control them but that only has very temporary effects. Trust more in your ability to know that the best way to truly teach someone is to allow people that space and freedom to make choices and learn on their own.
I’ve been fortunate and have had the honor and privileged to have very wise and strong elders to teach me a lot about life which I appreciate greatly. My sincere respect and gratitude for those strong and fearless mentors to have come along in my journey as a young child have truly helped me in more ways than they probably can ever imagine. I don’t feel the need to say their names on here, for they know who they are and I am grateful to watch and learn from each one of them in humility.
At the same time, the most learning I ever truly got was the real life experience on my own. On my own I was faced with challenges and obstacles that would have defeated lesser souls, but my strength and wisdom and utter belief in myself conquered many of those obstacles and fears with great success.
As I have conquered and continue to conquer my own self limiting beliefs, challenging myself to aspire to higher and even greater expansive heights, I understand that in this process I must accept people for who they are. Wherever they are coming from, wherever they are wanting to go. Part of my own journey is accepting this in others.
Respecting People For Who They Are By Seeing Their Light
Truly seeing where another person is coming from allows that other person to fully be themselves, without them having one to worry about judging them.
The truth is we are all in different stages of development in our lives. The more we can accept that idea, the better we can accept others for where they are in life.
When you begin to take an inward approach in your own life, and really feel good about the parts of you that you know really make you happy, you will begin to see that everyone has this in themselves as well. You begin to see the light in others as you become very aware of your own light. The more trust you have in your inner self, the more you will see that in others. It is quite a remarkable experience.
Accept people for the path they are in life, and you will never have to worry again if you are on the right path for yourself.
As the middle child of three siblings, the role of the mediator allowed me to accept people more so I guess. As the middle child, I saw the world a bit differently. As cliche as this sounds, I just wanted people to truly get along, looking beyond others differences and opinions. However, regardless of your birth order that calling to just allow people to be who they are and accept that is a tool that you can use to truly make a positive difference on your outlook of life with ease.
Be Easy About This Process-It’s really all About YOU
Be easy and fun about this process. Everyone is doing the very best they can with where they are in life. So the truth is that it really goes back to you. Initially, the focus really does begin and end with you, and connecting clearly with who you are.
This is what will allow this experience of acceptance for others to be much more easier. As you focus on your glow, your shine, your talents and good qualities, the better you will get at accepting people for who they are. When you see your light within, you see the light in others as well. The process of accepting people for who they are is guaranteed to bring success in areas of your life, that you probably haven’t even explored yet!
Accepting people for who they are opens up a space in your heart to just be free of any hurt or pains and allows healing to take place. Accepting people for who they are, is validation that you are fully accepting who you truly are. Fully accepting people for who they are, has more to do about you than the other person. We are simply mirrors for each other. 
Accepting others,
you are good writer & nice article also..Thanks for sharing
[Baker]´s last [Awesome] ..Your Free WordPress Theme Are not secure! Beware
Great tip Baker. Indeed it is a very powerful tool to accept people as they are. When I realized it is not my job to fix and change anybody it was wonderfully freeing. I used to love to crow bar my ideals and philosophy into peoples head. It is wise to always relate to people on their level on consciousness.
[Baker]´s last [Awesome] ..What’s Right with You?
Well put Baker, it seems that somewhere along our journey, we somehow just begin to understand this concept. Once we have a complete realization of what you wrote, we really do have a tool. A tool that sometimes we must be reminded to use, and when this happens, we feel it strongly. Fortunately, as with anything on the journey this mindset becomes a habit and works in our lives automatically. You did a nice job expressing the value off being non-judgmental toward others.
I can really relate to what Rob said about “crow bar my ideas.” It took me many years to overcome trying too hard to help people. There is a distinct difference in helping and pushing. Thank you for reminding us all that we are all in different places in our development.

Hey Thank you Khai, for stopping by! Hope you have a wonderful week ahead.
Hey Rob!
Yes, being aware of the levels of consiousness that people are at is a wonderful way to better relate to others on a more honest level. Thank you for your feedback!
Hi Sandra,
Yes there is a distinct difference that is very clear when we are trying to push our ideas or just letting them flow and allow others when they are ready and in a better position to hear them more clearly. I appreciate your feedback Sandra!
Indeed it is amazing tool.
What if we go further.
What if we accept everything, as it is.
What if we realize the true nature of the energy that makes “us” and which exists in every man, woman, child and rock. It binds us into one big mass of energy. Someone calls it “light”, some called it the “existence”, some called it “God.” Someone called it “consciousness”.
At this point тhere’s no condemnation. No labels. No “good” and “evil.” No ego. This means total acceptance.
I became a little philosophical here, I hope you do not mind
all the best Baker, great article…

Hey Marko!
Yes, I agree at that level yes accepting “everything” as it is leads to a peace of mind that transcends anything else that we probably ever experienced.
Thanks for bringing out that philosopher side.
Baker -
That is a really powerful lesson. I always look for the best in everyone and try to listen to who they really are. You share some really strong practical advice here and I think everyone could benefit from putting aside the ego and showing the respect they’d like to receive. Great stuff, Baker!

Hey Phil,
I am glad that you found the information useful.
Thanks for the feedback.
dude its super….

Baker — This is a well timed post for me. I liked the points you made in this post and they made me do some thinking about how I respond to people.
While I try to be accepting, I find that I am less accepting of people when my own fears are getting in the way. For example, fearing that I will not be liked by the person.
I’ve realized that I have to question myself when I find I not being accepting; do a sort of check-in about my own fears that are causing me to be less accepting of someone.
It’s the “check your ego at the door” policy. Sometimes I really good at doing this and other times not so good. That’s why posts, like this one, are good for me. Thanks:~)

Thank you Sara,
For you wonderful comment. I am glad you personally can connect with what I wrote here. Have a great weekend!
Thanks Dude!
This is very good stuff baker! We need to accept people for whom they are, and be open -minded to their opinion, and try to see from their point of view! So many people don’t act as you have explained on this article! When a person is open-minded to another person’s opinion, it can open the door to possiblities of a close relationship! We are suppose to allow other people to make their own decisions so that they can learn from things or mistakes in life! Great post Baker! Thanks Tyler
[Baker]´s last [Awesome] ..Want to Guest post or Blog review: Submissions are available
Hi Tyler,
Yes, allowing people that space to learn from themselves is valuable for that other person. I know for me the most times I really learn something new, is like I say in the article, through my own mistakes and failures and figuiring it out on my own, for successful resolution. Thanks for the feedback Tyler!!!
Hey Baker,
Really good post. Accept people for who they are. You’re totally right. And when you start doing that you can learn so much more from each person you meet too. Good post!
Peace,

Thanks Darren for your feedback!
Baker: Great post and such an important point and reminder. I think one of the best things we can do is to see the good in other people and not try to pass judgment on them and force them to be something based on our own expectations. I have always tried to remind myself that the work I can do is on myself and that I should look as other people as teachers. Everyone can teach us something that is valuable, we just have to look at them in the right light and really realize that is the case. Thanks for sharing all of your insights.

Hi Sibyl,
Yes, I agree with you. Having that good attitude towards others is a very good space for us and the other person to be in, and results in much success for both parties concerned. Thank you for your feedback!
Very nice post Baker. It is important that we accept people for who they are. Many times people try to change others because they don’t like something about the other person. The thing we have to realize that we affect others, but we can’t change them. Thanks for sharing
[Baker]´s last [Awesome] ..5 Ways to stay energetic throughout the day
Hello Dia,
Welcome to my blog. Thanks for stopping by. Yes, when we realize we can’t really change people, we ourselves become empowered in the way we teach others.
Yeah, I really feel you on this one. It is impossible for you t change someone…look at how hard it is for people to change themselves..I feel like I’m immovable in some parts of my life that I try to change. Other people trying to force the reaction just annoy me and end up creating an unnecessary distance between us. Great post!
[Baker]´s last [Awesome] ..A Pleasant Transformation
HI Baker, WOW awesome! Accept people the way they are. I just wrote this in my journal last week and it totally resonate with your posts here I’d like to share it with you “The hardest things for human beings to practice is non-judgment. In essence, non-judgment eases the mind, promotes harmony, supports happiness, and increase compassion.” And I have heard this week that “the less we question & judge ourselves and others the grerater will be our radiance.” Thanks Baker. You do live by these examples.
Love Light & Blessings
