Twisted

On the other end of the phone she was crying and sobbing over a need she worked hard to satisfy but failed badly to; only to end shredded in total despair, vulnerability, and devastation.

During direct communication with her she conveys and fully adopts the model of a simple female with low to moderate needs; being the trivially demanding lady. She portrays herself as well as a victim of people in her life and events she experience.

Social networks is a great arena for her to express herself the way she prefers to be perceived and drawn in others’ minds. From that point she excelled in tailoring her marketing techniques to the service of her growing desires. She also managed to secure a friendly perception of herself; an image necessary to hide a competitive spirit willing to ruin anybody who stand or might in her desires’ way.

Too many conflicting incidents accumulated at this point; giving rise to a persistent need to:

Tick, tock, tick, tock…

Time was passing by very slowly at the earliest shocks and disturbing discoveries, at an accelerated pace later on, driven into uncontrolled velocity eventually.

Having experienced so much, rewinding became a must , not for the sake of experiencing the exact details, but rather for the purpose of learning the maximal lessons that could be grasped.

Through time progression the very friend grew into a frenemy only to mature into a true enemy, which happened to be so since their earliest relationship with everybody. While she pictured herself being a victim of everybody, everybody ended being a victim of her unique twisted attributes, conspiracy being the least of them.

With schizophrenic tendency, and aggressively developing severe sick psychological conditions, she found no better strategy than to impersonate others in different occasions in a way that suits her needs, while utilizing whatever details she could collect about those she needs to impersonate during a journey dedicated to fulfill an abnormal, and uncontrollable curiosity.

Those low breakdown moments were her most sincere and act-fake free times when anybody could get to know her for real. Throughout those times she exposed her deep twisted character hidden underneath thick layers of conspiracy, deception and dishonesty, totally naked for anyone to not observe or mistaken the ugly and evil character she grew into.

Her barely average capabilities made her unable to remain balanced under pressure and stress, at which point she responds by becoming an overly-chaotic being, unleashing dark secrets and disgusting areas hidden skillfully underneath the skins she keeps borrowing and wearing.

In total disgrace, anybody who knows her pretty well, regret knowing her at all, and question their intelligence and how it betrayed them failing to uncover the true self of her earlier in the course of meeting her.

Great Leaders

In an achievement-oriented environment/society, where there is time for evaluating results and performance but not for praise; a person might be a material for a great leader and act as one without noticing it.

Chances that this happens without the person realizing it are higher when the person is humble, down to earth, and driven by pursuing excellence for the sake of excellence itself.

It could also be a distinguishing characteristic of the environment they live in; on the contrary of other environments/societies where the former minimal acceptable performance is considered heroism or a ceiling for performance in the latter.

Driven by achievement and focused on outperforming most times to stay abreast of surrounding competition as a method for surviving in an environment growing at rapidly accelerating rates; the person is raised to maintain that focus on the expense of denying herself/himself the focus on their self.

People might be taking this person as a role-model and wishing to follow her/him while this person still think they are hardly noticed.

Indeed this person should take lead, if current leaders are not doing good or in severe cases are destroying the team due to their consistent focus on their personal interests regardless the expense these interests have on the general welfare.

Never leave the wheel to a person whom you don’t have full confidence in their driving skills and capabilities. A good leader should not remain in the shadow and should lead those selfish or self-centered semi leaders to let go of the wheel.

To remain balanced in the leadership approach, always remember that:

The world does not revolve around me, you, or anybody else. It simply revolves around its axis.

Below are the 10 early signs that someone will make a great leader taken as listed by Bill Stronge:

#1: Listening and communicating effectively

#2: Being energetic

#3: Remaining calm under pressure

#4: Taking responsibility for their actions

#5: Acknowledging the contribution of others

#6: Being comfortable outside their area of expertise

#7: Being willing to take risks

#8: Being able to convince others

#9: Being comfortable reflecting on their strengths and weaknesses

#10: Being able to adapt

Lead Life

If you don’t take lead of your own life; somebody else will.

Followers

Some people follow somebody in a self-denying manner while marginalizing and neglecting their intellectual capabilities at the same time.

Is this attitude a choice they select voluntarily, or were these people born as followers by nature?

Gentleman

A man who won’t say a word which he cannot keep or commit to, a quite leader, a decision maker, and a man who stands for the consequences of his own actions.

Following the Crowd

Some people get married without having a clear idea of what is the most compatible future partner attributes should be. They just get married wishing this huge step would make a difference to their lives.

The truth is: the person should get married only when they know they can make a difference through this marriage and add value to it as much as they expect it to add value to them. As a start, it’s safe to say they can achieve this by selecting their partner based on reasonable compatibility!

Some people have kids automatically after getting married as a normal product of practicing their marital rights, without even being prepared. They bring kids to this world with the notion that they will be the makeover the partners pursue from this marriage.

In fact people should have kids only when they are sure they have some descent content, and solid values and beliefs worth being conveyed to their children. Raising kids isn’t only about providing materialistic living necessities. Parents should be concerned mainly about two things: providing their children with access to sufficient resources that will help their kids select the orientation that best employs their skills and capabilities, and directing their kids without being satisified merely by advising them and leaving the choices completely to them. Sometimes those kids just don’t know better and would go astray if they were left alone to decide before they develop or acquire the necessary decision making qualities!
