At some point, you may stop and ask yourself what all this repetition is for. Why all the driving home of the obvious and reading of the same old books and sayings? Some of it is downright annoying! And the same guy that goes to meetings sits in the same chair and says the same shit week after week! Or worse, day after day. Ugh! But! Remember, someone in that room may not have heard that yet. Someone just like you, at some point, needed to hear those things today. Remember, it’s not all about you. So, as you sit there and think, “I can’t stand hearing that motherfucker share that same story one more Goddamn time!” Just know that person’s message is not for you, but it may be helping someone through one of their roughest times. And who knows, maybe if you listen close enough, you just might hear something you’ve been missing this whole time.
