Hello and welcome to the ESG Fitness Podcast. I hope you are very well. Rather than tough truths

today, I'm still really struggling to say that. I want us to talk about a few empowering truths

and also some random observations which I've had this week. Maybe I'll start with that

because it doesn't really fit into the podcast. So I used to get quite annoyed at rude people

or like people with no manners. Like I don't know, it just used to aggravate me. I was like, why? Why would you not have manners?

And it did used to like, I guess like negativity is contagious. So then you'd carry a little bit of that

like bad mood slash bad manners onto the next person. And then it's this awful contagious cycle

and you pass that on to someone else.

Anyway, now I just think how awful it would be to be rude.

Like, imagine life or what life would be like if you just went around doing your own thing being rude to people all the time

meaning that probably everyone you meet immediately just at least a little bit dislikes you

and doesn't want to do you any favours and more so just like the negative vibes around that

no like i feel really sorry for people that are rude.

If you've ever been angry or annoyed at how rude someone is,

consider that they are probably rude to everyone.

It's got nothing to do with you, which is extremely

unfortunate for them, but not really unfortunate for you because you're not rude, so you don't

have to stress about that. And it's likely that they're just generally awful to be around

and not many people like them. So that's been my realization this week.

And I realised that this is probably really obvious.

And most of you are like, okay, tell us something that we don't know.

But for some reason this week, the penny just dropped for me in.
