Day 38 - Graciousness

When someone is gracious they are courteous, pleasant, polite or thoughtful. Making a concession, like holding the door open for someone, is graciousness, it serves a purpose greater than ourselves.

Reflection
  • Making gracious concessions on the little things allows us to stand unshakable on those that are more important.
  • To do this, we must be detached from our opinions.
  • This doesn’t mean being wishy-washy or lacking strength in our convictions, it means that we cultivate tolerance and not force our opinions on others.
Action
  • Write about some of the ways that you may act selfishly in life.
  • Be honest with yourself.
  • What changes can you make to become a more gracious person?
  • Write them down and practice at least one today.
“We’re all in this human experience together, so let’s try to be kind, gracious, and compassionate to each other."
Kailin Gow in Interview
“Your graciousness is what carries you. It isn't how old you are or how beautiful you are. What it is, is what comes out of your heart. If you are gracious, you have won the game.”
Stevie Nicks
