Post 99, 2013 Walking away

"Feeling bad vibes from a situation or person? Give yourself permission to walk away. No explanation is needed, just trust yourself and what you are feeling. 9 times out of ten (and usually 10 out of 10) you will not be wrong and might just save yourself some heartache or something worse!"  Moi

I have written on something similar to this before but, if you get a bad vibe, walk away. It doesn't matter if it is a party, an interview, or a person, walk away. If you get a bad vibe every time you hang out with someone, do not hang out with them anymore, no explanation is needed, just "sorry I cannot I am busy". They will eventually move on.  If it is a situation, get out of it as soon as there is a way too. You never know what could happen and you are better safe then sorry by walking away. I remember once going in for an interview and I saw a very familiar Rhino head, which is the logo for a pyramid scheme I fell for once. I went up to the receptionist and said, " I am sorry, I am not going to be able to interview, I am sorry for wasting your bosses time, have a great day," and left. I should have trusted my bad vibe before every going in there, but once I saw that I knew I needed to leave, they have a way of sucking you in and I did not want to be apart of that again. I have gone to parties or clubs before where I just got a bad feeling, I left without saying anything, and sure enough every time, after I find out something bad went down. I could have been caught up in that and luckily i was not.   My ex, there was something always off but I just attributed that to me being scared, as I am always scared. I was wrong and should have trusted that feeling as he turned out to be a bad bad person. He put on a great front and I think wanted to be a good person, but he just does not know how not to be a bad selfish person. I would have saved myself a lot of heartache and a lot of money had I just walked away when i had the chance. 

So the moral today is walk away. Doesn't matter what the situation is, if you have a bad feeling, walk away. It really will save you in the long run!  

Post 98, 2013 You cannot fix stupid

This week there has been an overabundance of not so smart things either said to me or done by others that just leaves my head shaking. Now I am not the smartest girl around, I do okay. I do try to think things through before talking or asking a question, or even see if I can use my old trusty friend Mr. Google and find the answer. I really try not to take some of these people and their actions personally, as I think it is just their personality. But some seem to just have started acting like this, which leads me to believe it is personal, as others saw this in their behavior a long time ago and I am just seeing it. Either it is personal or I am just blind.. naive.. whatever.  I do like to see the best in people.  I have tried for weeks even months at this point to be very nice, answer questions and not let them get to me. Today I hit my breaking point and realized I cannot fix stupid or rude people. It is their issue not mine. I need to not take it personally and realize whatever they have going on seems to over take their ability to think for themselves and not be rude to others. I kind of feel bad for them. I never want to be a rude person or a person who cannot think for myself. I want to see my faults so I can work on them. I am not perfect nor will I ever be but at least I know that and can work on being a better person. If you think that you are perfect then you are very wrong and go under the "stupid" category.

Always seek to improve yourself and if multiple people have the same issue with you, let me give you a hint.. it is not them.. it is YOU!
