Tenets To Live By

1. Don’t set the play to make people like you
The urge to seek and the addiction for recognition is an ego trap.

The courage to be happy also includes the courage to be disliked. - Ichiro Kishimi on Alfred Adler

2. Be vigilant and diligent in understanding and clarity in thinking
Lacking in well-informed details and perspectives can lead to flawed assumptions and thinking. For well-informed decisions, we need vigilance, diligence and empathy.

Laziness and poverty may not be cause-and-effect, they could be both effects of something else. What should worry us is that we lack understanding that concludes that they are the problem instead of they are under a problem which hints at our own arrogance, standing on a height to sigh down on people. - Chen Lei

3. Understand and nurse the emotions of the common people
All human are govern by pain and pleasure. Most human associate pain with evil and pleasure with good, whether respective of vision, scent, mind, touch, taste or hearing. Be cognizant and understand the fundamental psychology of what people are attracted to —things that they find — cute, sexy, and funny.

Listen closely to what people want … and what they do not want.

You can make more friends in 2 months by becoming interested in other people than you can in 2 years by trying to get other people interested in you. — Dale Carnegie
