How the success spoils people?

Imagine that your life suddenly changes overnight. You might get rich. Nothing makes a person so poisoned and gloomy as a success. Drink this sweet champagne and enjoy the taste, you are a privileged person.  Yesterday you were poor, today you are rich, and how to be flexible with this change? The moment you started to be famous and rich, the main questions will be: Who is your real friend now? Who are your enemies? How to treat people who love you, and how to deal with others who hate you? How to treat new people in your life, as potential friends or rivals? Where you will invest your money? You will need backup with many ingredients. Honesty, truth, loyalty, don't forget real values when shinny stars are all over you. Maybe you are a role model for others, but be able to look yourself in the mirror and don't lose your roots and your identity. Justin Bieber is still so young, but the press talks about his behavior. He was

Murphy's law - the unlucky story

When something is bad, don't worry. It might be worse. Everybody has one of those days when everything is going wrong. You get up and spill hot coffee on your white dress and then you must clean the mess and get late at work. There you will meet the grumpy boss and hysterical clients. When you finally can go to lunch pause, food in the business restaurant will be disgusting and someone will sit near you to talk about work during you chew this bitter meal. You will think that someone hit you with a spell or made a voodoo doll, but this is just a bunch of negative circumstances. This is the opposite of what you wish because you sent wrong energy to the universe, and the universe replies you back with bad events. Can we block our good luck? Yes, we can do it unintentionally. Sheila wanted that guy Tony so much, and he was not cold toward her, but she had one unwanted admirer at her workplace. Brian was her roommate and it was hard to work with him,

6 kind of authorities at the workplace

It is not easy to be an authority. You must give an example to others, you have big responsibility and others will blame you if something is going wrong. Like it or not, someone can consider you a bad person and probably people will hate you. Many jobs have a system that someone is a boss, and others are subordinated. It is like a pyramid, one is on the top, others are under him, and position underboss is lower and lower.  There are many kinds of bosses. panic boss - a hysterical person who cannot handle crises in a good way, especially if the boss is a woman, influence on other workers is negative egomaniac - he or she is always alright, smart ass, it is hard to convince that person on the opposite clown - nobody gets this person serious, he has no authority, he jokes with coworkers and his coffee break is not defined dictator - if you don't listen to his orders, you can be fired very soon, because he knows the best copy

Would you choose to be average or a famous person?

It is not easy to be famous. You want to reach the top of the world, but still, you are not the only one. Competition is tough, some would like to cross over the corpse just to gain success. Nowadays things are getting more harder. Taboo is not something that will raise the dust. Everyone knows about naked bodies in "Playboy", about porno movies which are stolen and published, about relations with married men and women, it is not forbidden to act promiscuous and homosexual.  Your album is not sold? Your book is not popular? Do something to pull fans on your side. otherwise, you are broke. So, what to do to make more attention and more admiration and to make our fame bigger? Serbian model Mina Milenković got an original idea, how to play the role of victim. She lied that she is kidnapped and raped. It would make a double effect: victim in the eyes of publicity and more famous because she was so strong to handle such serious troubles.   A game wi

How to gain the respect?

There is a quote: respect is hard to get and easy to lose. Respect is based on all areas of life. If someone loves you, he must respect you, there is no real love without respect. If you have no respect in your friend circles, your friends are fake. Also, when you have no authority at work, it means you are disrespected. Some people are born to be respected, but others must work hard to gain respect. Imagine a woman with big breasts and children face in business circles. She must try hard to get respect for her cooperators. The human mind is superficial and very often people will not think of her as a business lady. Stereotypes are obstacles on the way to respect because it is hard to change what is in other's heads. You can help yourself in this situation, to teach people what they can't do. If you wear dirty clothes, if you swear until you are talking, your message is clear: "I don't expect respect from you." Barbara was a real

Who is testing your patience?

Someone is upsetting us and we don't know what to do. It is not hard to predict our reactions when anger becomes a master of our minds. Breath easy, calm down, try not to tremble, all that voices in our head are screaming for survival.  We must eliminate the causer of our anger. This person jumps on our nerves and patience is over. Our choice is between three ways of approach: 1. aggressive approach 2. passive approach 3. assertive approach Brian was a new neighbor. He was a heavy metal fan and he had an electric guitar. Unfortunately, he chose his flat to improve his skills in playing the guitar. One day three men discussed his noise and each of them offered a different solution to this problem. Dan said: "I have no nerves. I will ring on his door and when he appears I will kick his ass. I will break his bones and he will not be able even to hold that guitar anymore." Timothy said: "I will pretend that nothing happen

Are you out of technology's trends?

Life is going on, and things are changing. What was forbidden now is allowed, what was popular now is turn off and ridiculous. People who want to fit in trends must be flexible. You will know you are getting old if you start to judge something that is valuable nowadays. If you are not updating your mind, you are a time passenger who stuck in a time machine. You are frozen inside and out. Imagine a woman who wears the same coat for 20 ages because she wants to spare money. Maybe practical but it will look like someone found her frozen in a mountain before 20 ages. It is very important to learn new skills.  Why? You can't get a job nowadays if you don't know anything about computers. You are not a desirable match for new partners if you judge lifestyle nowadays, especially if you prefer younger partners. People will laugh to you because you refuse to accept changes. Tea and Jack live in a new buildin

How you treat a person with disabilities?

Life brings us to every kind of problem, but it is easier to deal with them when we are healthy. In the case when a person became an invalid, things are getting harder.  Everything we do until now changes.  Things have a different meaning, different shape and world is a harder place. But what is really necessary to do when a person got sick, in the case of invalidity or any trouble which makes life harder? The worst thing we can do is sorrow, to treat that person as a little child. Here are examples of how people wanted to save dignity in the first place. They wanted to be treated like others. 1. Peter uses a wheelchair. He is a passionate gambler, and he spent almost every day in the casino. First other players looked at him with mercy, but then they accepted him as one of them. He uses his wheelchair alone, he doesn't allow any help and even he have big luck in slot machines. This passion means to him much more than tears, crying or prayers.

Did you enter in a midlife crises?

The best period of life is youth. Time is passing by very quickly, and if we don't gain what we wanted there is space for emptiness. It is like a mosaic, one cube is missing. Now you are an old man or old woman, and when you turn around yourself what you can see? Or here is something that you missed, but not behind you, this is forward you? Hugh Hefner for sure could be a role model of many men who wanted to be playboys, but for some reason, it could not work. All these beautiful sexy ladies around him, and he needs only to pick. Many men dream about harem because it is boring to have one woman for a lifetime. I bet male fantasies will include young and beautiful women, kind and sweet, without any questions, ready to realize hidden men's wishes.  So, what is with the average old man, retired, who has no money for beautiful young women? He can only look around or make fool of yourself. For example, Samuel is old and ready for retirement. He has

Why you can't find common interests with some people?

Did you ever wonder why it's so hard to find a common language with some persons? Here is a nice quote: "We are not in the same movie." It happens at first sight or during years when people change their city, work, or they simply live in different circumstances. It is the same feeling as you are driving a car, and another person has no clue about it. Two friends, Jacob and Sam talked about girls. Jacob is a virgin and Sam is a playboy. Jacob thinks that Sam is using women, and Sam thinks that Jacob is very naive. Recently Jacob met beautiful girl Pamela. They are dating about few weeks and Jacob asked advice from his experienced friend. - Did you have sex with her? - It is too early, I even did not kiss her yet. - Damn man, what are you doing, she will dump you. She will find you so boring indeed. - I don't like hot and easy women, I love to talk with girl, hold her hand, listen to slow music and to look her into eyes.

Did you give fake excuses and broken promises?

So much talk, fewer deeds, and actions - this is the golden rule in every relation. People who make many promises cannot realize all, and instead of realization, you will get excuses.  Arthur was never a man of too many words. He said to his wife Lena "I love you too" and the rest was unnecessary for him. Lena wanted a more romantic man, with candles and flowers, but Arthur was a working man, and his love was firm and stable, but not like in fairy tales. They separated because Lena wanted to live like in romance novels, with deep passion in the heart, and to be wild and spontaneous. So her next husband Victor was really a master of imagination. But unfortunately, he was without a job and all financial burden was on Lena's wallet. He promised to find a job soon, but that soon was long term, it last for years. And when Lena got angry, he said: - S orry, but I had no luck in searching job. All this is not good for me. I am not a manual worke

When people show true colors

When will people show true colors, when masks fall down? Everything is great until you have harmony in relations, no matter is this love or friendship. Until you support and confirm other opinions, until you stay away from discussions, you are peaceful. In this way you feed another ego, you are not a competition and there is no reason for envy or jealousy.  Once when you have a conflict with someone, things are changed. Suddenly you see a real face from your friend or lover. Then you can see how indeed that person respects you and what he/she really thinks. Denials and rejections are not easy. It can be very painful, unless you are a professional person who offers some products to customers, and they deny and refuse to buy. That is normal that you will say no to Jehova's witness who rings on your door, to people who are hired to sell brochures because they can be indeed boring. But they will not cry if you deny them, because it is their reality. Someone

Do you throw your frustrations to others?

You know the feeling when someone is getting on your nerves, but for some reason, you can't respond properly. You depend on this person and you will swallow your rage. When rage is placed deep inside you, it will find a way out. This rage is traveling until the right target. So, the poor victim is the third person, someone who is in the wrong place at the wrong time. The mother comes home after an exhausting day at work. Her boss gave her a hard time, but little daughter asks for attention, she wants her favorite candy or she lost her Barbie doll,  so the mother should help her to find where it is. - Damn, leave me alone. I can't open my eyes, I am so tired. Can't you give me a little peace? The little girl will be offended without special reason, just because her mother did not face it with problem eyes to eyes with their causer. A new man comes to a business company, he progressed as a boss. His employers are in fear becaus
