Step up

Its amazing how many people talk a good game but have little to show for it.  Everything is about them and what they do or have done.  In fact they barely remember your name or who you are and will gladly refresh your memory on their accomplishments at a moments notice.  Do you know a person like this?  I know plenty and often give the old nod and glassy eyed look as I hear more about nothing.  Those people need to step up.  If you step up then you are more engaged in what the other person is all about.  Finding out about them not their stuff is really a great deal of fun.  Its often said that small minds talk about people, events and gossip, while great minds talk about ideas.  I think that their is some truth in that statement and no doubt that we all grow when we go forward in life together.  So next time you meet a "Me Me" person interject an idea of serving others for the good of all and see if they follow you down this path to growth or get left behind.  The company you keep either elevates or deflates the person you wish to become.
