Love what irritates you

This post is based on the 49th chapter of the book 'The Greatness Guide' by Robin Sharma.

In fact, the things that really bother and seriously irritates you are great oportunities.
The people who drives you crazy are your biggest masters.
Be grateful for them.
Love them!

Do you know why?

Carl Jung said: "Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."

What a powerful point of view! I mean, for the ones who have the ability to take the positive aspects of any less good situation, the mistakes of the others are great tools for your self-improvement.
They're gifts that make you grow.
Use this challenges to increase your self-conscience.
The mistakes of the others can work like a light in the dark. As you start shedding the light above your personal weaknesses and assuming the responsibilities for them you start to see the process of their destruction. After exposed to the light, the shadows will begin to disappear.
You'll become a better person.

"I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am grateful to those teachers." - Kahlil Gibran

I totally agree with this magnificent thinker.

I've also learned to be mature with the immatures, to be pleasant with the unpleasant, to sing better with the ones who sing badly, to play better guitar with the ones who play badly, to play better basketball with the ones who play badly, to stop gossip with the ones who gossip, to quit lying with the ones who lie, to be more outgoing with the shy ones and to be funny with the ones who tell stupid and boring jokes.
