We spend so much time trying to get the business up and running that we may end up becoming burned out and lose our motivation. There is so much to learn and
Very smart, educated, healthy people can, for some unknown, reason come under the spell of opportunistic, toxic, and insecure people. It is very puzzling for an observer of this phenomena to understand how the brainwashed person can’t see what is happening.How it happens is a complicated process which we won’t address here. How we can help these people as a friend is, however, something we will tackle here. You will also see similarities to our conversation regarding befriending victims.

Compassion will be a big help here, even if you never say anything, but rather just come from the understanding that this situation is difficult.HonestyAfter listening to and understanding this person is under the influence of someone who is taking advantage of him/her for the purposes of controlling to manipulate, your best move is to start to question the person’s distorted reality. You want to come from your heart as you question their reality. There will be little phrases you can interject:I don’t see it that way.Funny I was thinking the opposite was true.I remember when you and I were more in agreement on major issues like this one.That sounds like bad behavior to me.Are those your thoughts or someone else’s?Continue reading here ..
