A Different Approach

A day of staff meetings, concerning the welfare of the clients that I work with and their peers in the same program.  I strive, fairly successfully, to be ego-less and selfless during the meetings, reminding myself that my role is to be of service and that it’s about them, not me.  As I indicated in my previous entry, I still get whispers of self-will and my own ego importance.  For the most part, I am amused when I here those whispers.  Living in response to those messages of ego, control and self-will resulted in a lot of discomfort for me.  Generally, I no longer act on those impulses and, as a result things go more smoothly.
