I picked up that saying from the instructor during my very favorite brain training class of all time: "People are fascinating."
If you can keep believing that, and keep it up front in your mind, it is so true. Good or bad. Even when folks do bad things, if you keep that in mind...why in the world did they think it was okay to do that? Fascinating.
There's a guy at work, he's bigger in the organization than me, I've been after him for weeks to do a simple thing that to me is very important to ME. It'll take 3 minutes to do it, but it's not important to HIM. I can't do it. He can.
But he won't do it. Instead, he'll stand there and talk for 10 minutes about how far behind he is, and what I'm needing is on his "list." He could have done what I need 3 times in the amount of time it took him to explain how far behind he is.
I don't understand that, but people are fascinating. They sure are. Everybody's different. I really like that guy, and enjoy working with him. But he does what he wants to do, at his own pace, eventually.
