REMOVE THE FAULTY!

 

Anything or anyone in your life that requires you to reduce/lower your values, principles, standards, ethics, morals and/or behavior in order to be or stay relevant to you is faulty, defective and not worth being in your space/life.

By reducing/lowering your values, principles, standards, ethics, morals and/or behavior, you will be conversely affecting in a negative way the functionality of the needful things or people that depend on your original values, principles, standards, ethics, morals and/or behavior to be and stay relevant to you.

Test:

If you have a faulty Television set that requires you to reduce the current of your Generating Set in order to function and you have an expensive and new Freezer that it's compressor will be damaged if you effect that reduction, what will you do?

For me, I will discard the Television set, save up and buy a new one that can function with the current of my Generating set. I cannot afford to end up with two faulty appliances: the already faulty Television set and the Freezer that will consequently develop a fault by virtue of the reduction in the current of my Generating set.

What is my reasoning?

The Television set is already faulty and has greatly depreciated in value. Meanwhile, the Freezer is brand new, functioning properly and expensive. Now, I have to choose whether to keep the Freezer safe from damage or add it to the list of my faulty appliances. What I really need is a new Television set that will serve the purpose of a Television set and not "that" Television set. 

Every moment, we are faced with situations to make choices that will either make or mar us and everything we have built.

Don't let a relationship with a faulty thing or person damage your relationship with a valuable and needful thing or person because of your effort to retain that faulty thing or person in your space/life.

Not only will your values, principles, standards, ethics, morals and/or behavior be lowered, you will keep doing other crazy things to retain that faulty thing or person without even knowing it. Your money, time, physical and mental energy, focus, peace, etc, will be drained as well.

As for your other productive relationships, they will begin to malfunction and you will keep wondering why. They will never be able to function properly as before. You will be trapped in a turmoil of trying to fix your relationship with the needful people or things that have been conversely affected by your relationship with that faulty person, thing, association, place, etc, not knowing that the problem is not from them. Infact, there is nothing to be fixed. There's only something or someone to be removed.

It is in your power to save yourself from the disarray that you may have inadvertently gotten yourself into. You need to, in a calm retrospection, discover how it all started and what went wrong from where.

How did this whole "saga" begin?

It began when you let that faulty person or thing into your space/life.

NO MATTER HOW INTERESTING THEIR PRESENCE MAY SEEM TO YOU, THEY ARE ACTUALLY CAUSING MORE HARM THAN THEY ARE WORTH!
