The Fastest Age

Originally posted by Ion Beza You are wrong. And slow. Speaking of slow, you weren't paying attention and didn't include a quote, so, who are you talking to anyway? As for wrong, too bad you see that as an insult, and have the need to childishly lash out with insults towards other people. You have the need that other people continuously validate that you're right, and that, my pal is dysfunctional behavior. I bet you never read through or paid attention to that psych stuff I posted for you. If you did, you;d know just how silly and childish your "I'm right and you're wrong" posts sound. I'm not a little kid, I could care less whether you say I'm right or wrong, my belief system and values exsit independently of your approval or validation, and I'm secure with my knowledge. So whether you think or say I'm right or wrong is irellevant. I know my information came from credible sources/ Too bad your belief system needs so much external validation. Often it indicates insecurity in your own self, or your own beliefs and knowledge. See that "wrong" post of mine was a psych bait to suck you in and show your inability to remain dignified, and you took and swallowed it like a starving catfish. You pride yourself on hard work and acomplishing things... Put some work in that abrasive personality of yours. You might find yourself a lot more "understood" after you do. Your swimming will benefit too. Youll probably get a lot of positive attention too, and you won't feel so isolated. I wonder if you often butt heads with your coaches. I get the sense that when they suggest something to you, you take it as if you're doing something wrong, and that bruises your ego... if it's anything like you behave in this newsgroup, I bet it bruises it to a point you stop being receptive. By your behavior on this bulletin board, I can definately see whay some people that met you in person said that you're 'uncoachable'. I also wonder if perhaps that is not the reason you have worked for so many companies in so few years? Those personality traits tend to exist in all aspects of one's life. If I thought you were open to it, I'd actually recommend a professional you could talk to, but I don't think you're ready, my guess is you probably will never be ready for that. It takes a lot more humility and a lot less denial than you posess.
