Stop helping other people out of their comfort zone?

Let me start today's article with a quote by C.S. Lewis which reads as follows: "You cannot change the beginning, but you can change the conclusion."

I discovered something in my guardian’s chicken farm. When a newborn chick hacks its way out of the egg, you can see her struggle. However, do you know what would happen if you were to rescue that infant from struggling to get out of its shell or egg?

It will eventually die. You may now ask, what? Why would it be like that? That is because the newborn chick is now incapable of surviving in the real world.

Last week, I attempted to assist one chick in hatching and eventually dying.

I took something that was necessary for its survival. It required that battle in order to develop the power and endurance necessary to survive in nature. I am aware that this will sound cruel, but it's just like that newborn chick.

We all have people in our lives whom we wish to help. From the goodness of our hearts, we want to assist them. However, when we assist them, we enable their demise.

Sometimes, the most effective way to assist someone is to enable him or her to suffer more.

Before they find the courage to cry, "I've had enough." I want to make a significant difference in my own life! I wish to improve my life.

They require a few more punches to the head.

Additionally, there is this reality: Some people, deep down, do not desire to be saved at all. As you can see, their difficulties have become an integral part of their identity. As a result, if you solved their problems, they would lose. That is why they remain unchanged.

They never desired solutions to their difficulties, either subconsciously or consciously. They really want to complain about them.

Therefore, the next time you want to assist or save someone, I want to remind you of the egg and to consider whether you are causing more harm than good. If you assist them, you are effectively helping their fate.

You know, we want certain people to change so desperately, some of our dearest friends, some of our relatives, some of our co-workers, and we have the best of intentions, but as they say, the way to hell is paved with good intentions.

We must accept them in their current state. We influence people via example, not explanation, and especially not through condemnation, which is why Einstein stated, "Setting an example is not the main means of influencing people, it is the only means."

Never, ever give up if you are reading this. We shall prevail. I am rooting for you.
