Everyone knows the kind teddy bear from the cartoon named Winnie the Pooh? It was created in the 1920s by Alan Mealy, who wrote a fascinating book about funny characters for his son Christopher Robin. The work is not only fascinating, but also informative. After all, we all have a lot to learn from Winnie the Pooh.
Here are 9 life lessons from Winnie the Pooh
Make it easier
Winnie had only sawdust in his head, and he was very upset by the long words. He just didn't want to think about them, and he wasn't going to complicate things. There is nothing wrong with relaxing today instead of working! Like Winnie the Pooh, he could puzzle himself for one day only with the question of where he could enjoy delicious honey.
Don't judge at first sight
There is no need to rush to express an opinion if you are telling something to the interlocutor, and it seems to you that he does not listen to you at all. Maybe, as Winnie the Pooh said, he just got something in his ear! There is a real struggle inside each of us, we all have to solve some problems, but we need to try not to drown in the maelstrom of affairs. People who are busy with their problems can be absent-minded and will be constantly distracted in conversation. There is no need to judge them harshly, it is better to understand what is happening to them.
Appreciate real friends
Winnie the Pooh said that at least one day spent without a friend is like a pot without a drop of honey in it. Be grateful to your friends for what they are, appreciate them and do not lose!
Do not hurry
Learn to slow down. On the way, each of us will encounter slowdowns, such as congestion, traffic jams and obstacles. But you just need to learn to take your time and not get annoyed with all this. Remember, rushing is bad for your mental health!
Look wider at things
We can perceive the world a little differently than everyone else. But you need to learn to look at it from different angles, from all sides, wider. Even if you disagree with someone else's point of view, just listen to it. You need to learn how to change in order to adapt to the situation.
Chat with people
Remember Winnie the Pooh had a sad, introverted friend Eeyore? And the point is not that no one wanted to communicate with him, but that he himself was very uncommunicative. If you yourself do not want to get in touch with people, then why do you accuse them of not needing you? It is not necessary to meet constantly, you can call up, correspond. When you are having a hard time, do not expect the person to offer you help! After all, you can take the first step!
Before you do something, think
There should be a goal in your head, well, a plan, in which direction you should move. First, think, analyze, and then go to your goal.
It's okay to have negative feelings.
Winnie the Pooh couldn't afford to swear like an adult. But you can? Therefore, it is worth shaking out your negative emotions and feelings, sometimes even out loud and very loudly.
Love yourself
You need to take care of yourself, love, appreciate. You are the most important person for yourself. If Winnie the Pooh wanted to taste honey, he did not restrain himself in his desire. If he wanted to meet someone, he just went and met. Our life is too short to spend it on criticism and to limit ourselves in our desires. Life already very often presents us with very unpleasant surprises, so why don't we become more caring, tolerant and gentle to ourselves?
I really wanted to read a book about Winnie the Pooh, or watch a cartoon. Indeed, we have a lot to learn from this interesting character!
