As we get better, we begin to attract more attention! And when that begins to happen -expect a variety of rxns/responses from the people in your proximity.

“If you want to be accepted by the world, don’t for example, go to a counselor to get healthier, go to a counselor to learn how to fit in.”

As a child I learned very quickly about the competitive side of life -first while living with my aunt and uncle and their five children -who came first. Then, in school competing for the teachers attention and approval. Also with regard to the prettier girls in school -whether intended or not, your very presence placed you @ odds. And… 🤔, ah yes, the jostling of where you fit on the totem-pole of cool(?), or tough! They really should have done something about the bullying long before…

Well anyways, when I started working, looking back 🤔, I realized the jobs I worked at were pretty much free of conflict -not alot of people were vying for them! I hadn’t realized, in so I thought, that in the work-place like every other area of human life, (WE) HUMANS ARE BOTH FIERCELY TERRITORIAL AS WELL AS COMPETITIVE! Some of us however, simply do not have the stomach ferret. 😏
