zhlj real asshole

Correctamundo?

The two guys who called me for advice were
stunned when I came up with this great idea right on the spot.
I was glad I'd helped them.

Or so I thought.

About a month later they called me again. They
said they were looking for another idea. "You mean
that one didn't work?" I asked incredulously. "I
can't believe it. How many did you mail and what kind of
response did you get?"

They hadn't mailed any. But they loved the
idea and thought it was "fun" to talk with a
creative genius like me and and they wanted to see if I could
give them yet another "killer" idea.

I was livid. I got as verbally abusive as I
could. I told them to never call me again. You know, to give
another person a really good idea, an idea that may solve a
major problem for them... and then... have them not even give
it a shot... well... that just pisses me off big time. I've
found out some things about myself in the last few years and,
one of those insights is... I
burn with desire to be a really
great teacher!

God knows how many people are rich because of
what I have taught them. I've received 3,000+ letters of
appreciation from such people. But it still gets me, it really
gets me, when I can't "get through" to someone.

Like most caring teachers, I am emotional
about my "students." I love it when they succeed. I
love it when they eclipse me.

But, you know what? I've been writing this
letter and giving speeches and seminars for more than a
decade... and... there are lots of people who've read nearly
every word I've written, been to most all the seminars I've
given, bought all my tapes and videos... and...

They Still Do Nothing!

And you know what I think? I think maybe, if
something comes too easy, many people don't appreciate it.
However, if they have to "work" to get your pearls
of wisdom, if they have to make a "mental
investment" to "get" what you have to teach...
well, maybe... they'll value it more, realize how precious it
is and act on what you've taught them.
