Have you ever met someone who could not take initiative? They don’t ask how they can help, they’ll usually do what you tell them to do, but they can’t seem to see something that needs to be done and just do it.

How does that make you feel? Does their behavior irritate you, or make you judge them as lazy or uncaring or just plain stupid? Can you find compassion for them so you can deal with them better?

Maybe they’ve been beaten down by a parent or a partner who always belittled them or told them everything they did was wrong. Think about it – if that happened to you, maybe you would lack initiative, too.

Resist the temptation to beat them down more – find it in your heart to try to lift them back up.
