Quite some hours last week, were dedicated to watching American civil war movies; Gettysburg, Glory and Gone with the wind. And seeing all those people fighting in such ridiculous way, with so many guaranteed casualties, can be quite mind bothering. How can you convince such masses to march over a long battlefield with such discipline, meanwhile sieged by canons, than under enemy’s gunfire and lastly, facing the enemies with bayonets. You need some kind of a minor miracle to motivate people for such a thing, or needn’t you?
An interesting quote, I came across while watching the movie “A good year”. Even though I don’t totally agree with such statement, if we take beauty as an alignment of someone’s physique with society’s standards, that are instilled in us during our socialization and participation in society as such, the above statement couldn’t be far from the truth. Why so?

Why wasting your precious time for people having no sincere intent in building of quality win-win relationship? Because we (or at least I) have better time to do with our(my) life, than supporting those “phony-confident”persona’s , searching only for confirmation from others in every walk of life possible. And there are many of them.. Especially on social-networking sites, many are presenting themselves (especially women) in various wannabe-sexy poses, hoping to be followed with as many unoriginal and overused-phrase comments as possible. And sooner or later they are grounded with the value of such compliments; they might be intriguing at first, but over time, their value decreases exponentially.. So why not rather invest the time spent in consolidating the relationships they are really interested in, and over time, get the opinions they could actually value? At least in my view, that would be a much better investment, especially if we also take in account Pareto principle, that could be saying, that we get 80% of our “relationships qualities” from 20% of folks we are involved with, and other 20% from the other 80% of the folks involved. So why dispersing our energy and intents all over the place, and not giving the first 20% our special attention for further improvement of our interactions, and that way creating a circle of friends from which opinions we could actually value?

As knowledge can be fairly reachable nowadays, due to the information overload we are faced with, its application is probably more difficult than ever. As an example we could take my clumsy approach to all sorts of relationships.. Despite of the fact that that is one of the areas of my great interest, and all of the knowledge I’ve gathered during the research of this phenomenon, I still have a habit of making such basic and stupid mistakes, that sometimes is quite hard and embarrassing to face the results of my doing. Even though I know very well, how you need to let the time to do its own job, I can fairly easy get distracted into my general attitude towards all other life challenges, where target is focused and than great deal of effort and persistence is invested into completion of the desired goal. This works great with other things, but is a disaster when dealing with relationships, as it gives an uncomfortable feeling of being obsessively harassed. Everything else than good behaviour than, so it needs to be eliminated as soon as possible, but as with every change in our behavioral patterns this too will take time and will be done gradually, so for now, we just say that nobody is perfect.
