Alan Weiss’s Monday Morning Memo® – 8/10/15
This week’s focus point: My personal feeling is that people deserve respect. I don’t meet someone with a belief that they are “broken” and need to be fixed, and I don’t write my books with the idea that my readers need remedial help. The antipodal position is that of the bully, who berates people. Psychologically, bullies are highly insecure and have inferiority complexes. Their bullying behavior is an attempt to compensate for their perceived inferior status by physically and/or emotionally forcing everyone else to descend to their level. (Many adult bullies suffered abuse as children.) Bullies are pugnacious, always seeking a fight, always seeing themselves as being treated unfairly. The only way to stop them is to confront them. The more ground you cede to them, the more you empower them. It may be prudent to run away from a schoolyard fight, but it’s never wise to allow the bullies to take over the political stage. We’ve learned that time and time again.
