Description
There are a lot of people, not only in the world but right under our noses, that we might like to know better. When we stop turning each other off (unnecessarily) with off-putting practices, habits and behavior, which we may not even intend to annoy or offend, we will all have more frequent and more desirable experiences and more beneficial relationships, which is best for mankind and the evolution of life on this planet as we may know it.
Looking past the shortcomings of the person next to you is something that isn't always easy to do. Continued interactions with someone who has the tendency to perturb or irritate is challenging, even when it''s a loved one, and to do this for a casual acquaintance, a co-worker, or a person whom one has just met may seem to be -- if not impossible -- far more trouble than it's worth.
What if we didn't have to look past shortcomings? What if off-putting behavior simply wasn't there? Imagine that for a moment.
I just did. It prompted a sigh of relief.
It is certain that we aren't all meant to be the best of friends and lovers. What is possible, however, is for all of us to have more satisfying interactions with each other. This book is a place to begin. There is nothing written here to take away from one's personality, personal style or character. In fact, following these guidelines will, in addition to improving one's relationship with oneself and others, make more clear to all the shining person that is you.
Following these guidelines is like using Cascade: You're allowing a better presentation of what lies within your vessel.
Everyone wins.
This is the first book in the series.
