~ “There is an old Proverb that says ‘If you hang out with dorks you will become a dork’”

I love it! So true!

Mal, I’ve been reading your Rants for a long time. I used to live in Blanco, Texas, and look forward to coming back. I’m up west of Lubbock right now, but look forward to coming back to the Hill Country and seeing you and Joe Vitale soon.

I just finished publishing my third book yesterday and I’m working on completing my fourth and fifth.

The fourth one (the BIG one) is an academic editing job for academia, while the fifth one is more along the positive, self help genre.

What you say is so true: to put it another way, “Birds of a feather, flock together.”

Keep up the good work!

One of the lamest answers to “How are you?” is “Not Bad”!
I simply respond with “So you’re not good?”
People today just either don’t want to think, or don’t want to commit.
Seriously, the question is not that difficult. Commit to your feeling & to who your are.

I agree totaly with what Mal is saying here. The people you hang out with & spend most of your time with will influence your attitude far more that what you will influence theirs.

Get around people that will challenge & extend you. Get around people that will make you grow!

You have two choices, Talk about what was on TV last night, or talk about your Goals & Dreams.

Mal,

I concur with the gist of what you are saying. Though, sometimes it is hard to get away from negative people if you are married to one and I know of many who are in this predicament. The only solution under such circumstances is the drastic one of divorce/separation !!

Negative people tend to sap one’s energy and waste one’s time. When I am in a negative mood I tend to stay away from others.

BTW: Where you say “And are absolutely adverse to change!” should read “And are absolutely averse to change!” I have seen this mistake in too many places to name.

It is so true that you can give so much of yourself that you go under. Did this with my last business and never again. There must be a balance.
