WHO WILL CRY WHEN YOU DIE [CHAPTER 71]........Stop Condemning


                          71.
            Stop Condemning

Like the vice of complaining discussed earlier, it is easy to fall into the habit of condemning others, even those we love most. We criticize the way someone eats or the manner in which she speaks. We focus on the most minute details and find fault with the smallest of issues. But what we focus on grows. And if we keep focusing on a small weakness in someone, it will continue to grow in our minds until we perceive it to be a big problem in that person.
   Would you really want to live in a world where everyone looked, acted and thought exactly as you do? It would be a pretty boring place. To live a happier, more peaceful life, begin to see that the richness of our society comes from its diversity. What makes relationships, communities and countries great are not the things that we have in common but the differences that make us unique. Rather than looking for things to criticize in those around you, why not begin to respect the differences?
  Often, we perceive in others the weakness we most need to address within ourselves. Stop blaming and condemning. Accept complete responsibility for the way things are and resolve to work and changing yourself before seeking to change others. This is one of the truest measures of a person of strong character. As Erica Jong said, “Take your life into your hands and what happens? A terrible thing: no one to blame.”

Wealth is What You Don't See

Image
                                    CHAPTER 9         Wealth is What You Don't See Spending money to show people how much money you have is the fastest way to have less money.   M oney has many ironies. Here’s an important one: Wealth is what you don’t see. My time as a valet was in the mid-2000s in Los Angeles, when material appearance took precedence over everything but oxygen. If you see a Ferrari driving around, you might intuitively assume the owner of the car is rich—even if you’re not paying much attention to them. But as I got to know some of these people I realized that wasn’t always the case. Many were mediocre successes who spent a huge percentage of their paycheck on a car. I remember a fellow we’ll call Roger. He was about my age. I had no idea what Roger did. But he drove a Porsche, which was enough for people to draw assumptions. Then one day Roger arrived in an old Honda. Same the next week, and the next. “What happened to your Porsche?” I asked. It was repossessed

‘Making People Glad To Do What You Want'

Image
             CHAPTER 30 ‘Making People Glad To Do What You Want' BACK IN 1915,  America was aghast. For more than a year, the nations of Europe had been slaughtering one another on a scale never before dreamed of in all the bloody annals of mankind. Could peace be brought about? No one knew. But Woodrow Wilson was determined to try. He would send a personal representative, a peace emissary, to counsel with the warlords of Europe.    William Jennings Bryan, secretary of state, Bryan, the peace advocate, longed to go. He saw a chance to perform a great service and make his name immortal. But Wilson appointed another man, his intimate friend and adviser Colonel Edward M. House; and it was House’s thorny task to break the unwelcome news to Bryan without giving him offence.    ‘Bryan was distinctly disappointed when he heard I was to go to Europe as the peace emissary,’ Colonel House records in his diary. ‘He said he had planned to do this himself . . .    ‘I replied that the President
