Golden Boy
It has been months since I last looked at my blog less to say even to post anything new up there. Simple reason is that there are just too many things to do and if there are anything to be shared, I knew there will be someone who is always be there to hear it.
But still letting the days pass like this without jotting it down can be a little wasteful. We should always analysize our experience and improve on it in the future. I recently watched an anime entitled Golden Boy which is about a guy who goes around doing odd job so as to learn as many things as possible. He took all his experience seriously and jotted down every single detail down in his dairy, hence learning in all ways possible.
I remember there was a time where I really blog about my feelings and experience with people so to analysize how I should be reacting and handle all kinds of situation. Nonetheless, the people that I have been encountering all my life are different to those whom I have been meeting recently and will be meeting more in the future. During the army days, I met people who are happy knowing they have the power over others, people who just want to be heard and people who just want to get things over and done with. Handling all these type of people are easy when you know their style. Of course along the way, I met people who are just willing to help knowing that I am new to things.
Nonetheless, I came to a point that I am meeting more and more people who have hidden agenda. We interacted in the first place because we wanted something from each other. There isn't much of such occurance before simply because I have nothing to start of with in the beginning. For me all these while, whenever I meet with such people who have such motive (it is kind of easy to id them almost immediately), I will reject them totally by ignoring or showing my disgust, nevermind them being offended or saying nasty things or how they view me. Perhaps it is some defence mechanism I have learnt unconsciously. However, on careful thought, it is just not right for me to do so as in the working work everyone has a hidden agenda and I really can't dismiss every single person I meet like this. Moreover, they are still people and did nothing wrong for trying to gain a little something out of others.
Rejecting people making them uncomfortable and showing your displeasure is easy, anyone can do that. The hard part is to reject them techically and even better to convince others of your own view.
I wonder how I can go about doing this.....
Guess its about time to learn how to reject people while making everyone (truely) comfortable. Perhaps I should go more free facials to start learning this... Its about time to upgrade myself this area...
