Tuning Your Character to Compromise for A Better Life

We have to be wise to deal with anything in our life. We have to make a smart bargain, a good deal in any matter. I believe, compromise is one of the important key to have a better life. But, how far can we compromise?

Priority, situation, and condition are some reason for us to compromise. For example: X and Y are two generous persons. They like to help anyone who needs help. X is a too-generous person. X can easily give all his money without any consideration to someone who urgently needs a financial help. X simply thinks that giving his money to this person will lessen his burden. On the other hand, Y considers too many priorities in donating his money. Yet, Y is still keen to give donation to help others.

I notice that around us, there is quite a lot of generous people like X and Y. Here, I just want to suggest to all my friends:
  1. whose personality type is like X; Too-generous type of person can often have a problem for him/her self, particularly in managing his/her own money. This type of persons need to be more careful in deciding what to do with their own money. Careful consideration on priority is necessary.
  2. with Y type of person; Do not overly consider too much unnecessary details. It might discourage your good purpose to help the person who urgently needs your hands.
So, just have a 5 minutes to introspect your self,
  • Which type of person are you? X or Y? too-generous? too much detail? perfectionist? selfish? never give any donation?
  • After realising what type of person you are, try to tune your character! Not too much neglect on your own need, nor contrarily, too much unnecessary details to consider to do generous thing. Try to be as balance as possible.

May everyone be well and happy. Let's tune our character!
