Even though we all hate it, we know we have to chase people down who need to give us something. We have to keep after them if we want to make this work. 

It shouldn't have to be this way, but we're often too high on conscientious and expect people will do things because we do them.

Remember the adage "People care about themselves and their own situation 99% of the time."

This is where I run into my old nemesis, my people-pleasing and my inability to slow down and stick up for myself. Of course, I am fully responsible for this issue and I have to do everything to correct it, but what about the people who are supposed to give guidance and goals in the work sphere?

I try to answer this, but obviously I get nowhere other than my own life issues.

My reactions to what people missed when they were bonding together to help me.

Of course, I have all the bits and everything to qualify me as a male, but I am not a "man" simply because of my past, my feelings, and the future that looks barren of family and "legacy."

The show refers to The Goodman Project writings I had to offer and the fact I had to lie to myself to put up two pieces that didn't land well there caused me to question everything I do in the future when it comes to my audience.

This is where I start to struggle with faith and belief in myself and with other people. 

This is where people used their fear of talking about a disgusting subject and tried their best (and failed) to turn it into a positive.

I can assure you this is not the best story I have, but it is the formative years of my life.

I am man, yes I am!

Of course, this episode touches on some of the tougher aspects of my family background and more of the situations I found myself in when I was living with my family.

My grandmother was a witch, my grandfather was a satanist.

My parents were religious in hopes they could distance themselves from it.

I get a nifty connection to a Metallica cover that I obsessed over when I was 15.

If there is one thing I can't stand, it is someone selling you an idea to get you to buy certain things. The only thing worse is getting two people to sell you things. 

Of course, the real entertainment comes from these people colliding with each other and fighting over which way is better because they expose the game and also dole out unintended wisdom in the process.

10 ideas are fine. 10 ideas every day are terrible. 3 pages of long handwriting are fine. 3 pages of long handwriting every day is tyranny.

Beware these people because they are only giving you a small fraction of what worked for them in hopes you will buy courses, training, or some other failed sales opportunity to get themselves more money.

It is that time of year, and also that time for me to catch up on what I missed while I was uploading.

This is a good question, but I am not sure if the answer is accurate or not.
