I want more of that health, I want more of that wealth, I want more of that patience, I want more of that intelligence, I want more of that creativity, I want more of that laughter, I want more of that energy, I want more of life, I know it can give me that, I am in the process of getting them.

About Me, Me, Me and More Me

A week ago I fell off from the edge of the world of the living deads, but now I have came back for I still have some unfinished business here. It was an interesting week for me where I had the taste of how it will be when the time comes, which is in mid-July by the way.

But now I’m back to the old routine. It’s okay, I’m not blaming anyone, justifying anything or complaining, which is by the way the three clues for detecting those energy sapping, attention-seeking people who love to play the role of a victim. This new info I gleaned from reading a new book in our list, Secrets of A Millionaire Mind.

After reading the section on the clues, I realised that I have so many friends who are in that category and that I was once like that. So this is what the book says about the ‘woe be me’ species;

“Victims BLAME the economy, they blame the government, they blame the stock market, they blame their broker, they blame their type of business, they blame their employer…they blame their partner, they blame their spouse,..and of course they blame their parents. It’s always someone else or something else to blame. The problem is anything or anyone but them…

Have you ever noticed that complainers usually have a tough life? It seems that everything that could go wrong does go wrong with them. They say “Of course I complain – look how crappy my life is.” And now that you know better, you can explain to them, “No, it’s BECAUSE you complain that your life is so crappy. So shut up…and DON”T stand near me!”…

Plenty of people however, love to hang out and listen to complainers. Why? It’s simple: they’re waiting for their turn! “You think that’s bad? Wait till you hear what happened to me!”

Yes, I was once that despicable. No wonder I haven’t got many friends then. And now that I know better, I’m staying away from these energy-sapping, attention seeking, ‘oh poor me’ people. You should too because life is too short to be complaining. It should be filled with proactive actions to move forward. Easier said than done you say, but we have to start somewhere. So why not start with yourself?

Have a nice day...
