I have been reading The 48 Laws Of Power. This book is great. It made me realize a lot of things about myself as well as other people. One law in this book all people should follow. LAW 10:INFECTION-Avoid The Unlucky and Unhappy "You can die from someone else's misery- emotional states are as infectious as diseases.You may feel that you are helping the drowning man but you are only precipitating your own disaster.The unfortunate sometimes draw misfortune on themselves;they will also draw it on you.Associate with the happy and fortunate instead" I don't understand how people complain about the same old issues in their life day in and day out. Yet they do nothing to change it. I think that misery becomes part of their life it's what makes them thrive from day to day. I get tired of hearing the same old "I NEED A JOB", "I NEED A MAN WHO WILL TREAT THE WAY I WANT TO BE TREATED". OR " WHAT DOES GOD HAVE IN STORE FOR ME" bullshit questions and comments from people. The truth is things won't change until you make a change. Call me harsh but it's reality. I was one of those who enjoyed my misery and liked the company that came along with it. I noticed after a while nobody wants to be around someone who isn't happy with themselves, their life or anything else for that matter. You only slow down someone else's progress as well as your own. Your emotional state as well as someone else's can be a hazard. I have learned to look at all the negatives and find what can be made positive from it. I can honestly say I understand the meaning of " You can catch more Bees with honey than flies" Hopefully if someone else reads this book they will be more knowledgeable then they were before they read it.
