What just happened? I came into that scenario with the best intentions, and yet somehow they still snapped at me!
Doing the right thing is not a guarantee that we will get the right response in return. There are many reasons why we might receive a negative reaction from someone despite our efforts. These can include our own heart attitude, the kind of day the other person had, and even the lens through which our actions are being interpreted.
When this happens, we can leave an interaction feeling discouraged, disappointed, ticked off, and wondering if we could have done anything differently. Whether it’s in our marriage, our friendships, or even our work relationships, we’ve all been at a loss for what to do next when somebody doesn’t respond well to us.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
Some of the causes for a negative response
What our strongest motivation should be for doing the right thing
Encouragement for when things don’t go the way you expected
