Hello All,
I am wondering, has anyone been able to at the most fundamental way change their way of thinking about things. I don't mean just giving up the smokes, or drinking a few less beers.
I mean changing the basic essence of who they are.
You see people who say they are born again Christians, and they change for the better. That's great, and the sort of thing I am talking about. But I am never going to find God. So please don't offer me that option. But i have a certain way of thinking that I cannot seem to shake. I am not an axe wielding maniac, quite the opposite, which is half the problem. I am open to extreme ideas, loll, twice as a kid I tried to sell my soul to the Devil to be a guitar god. It was a no show I am serious, I really did. I was only young though
But I guess what I am saying I am open to anything that has worked for others. Even if it seems a tad out there.
This is going to sound corny, but I have grown up aspiring to the values of chivalry and knighthood.
If you knew my Dad you would know why. He was awesome.
But I found a link somewhere completely by accident that was titled something like...
Why the Nice guy never gets the girl...
And it described me. It was awful, it seemed to tell me that all the things I thought were the right things to do, and the best way to behave, were there very things that drove away a potential partner. What bloody chance does that give me? I guess i am not chasing the girl as such, although I would not say no. But it seem to reflect on life itself, and my world. It seems the nicer I am to people, the more I get shit on.
So back to the main question.
Has anyone found away to change the basic essence of their behavior,
Be it by selling ones soul to the Devil, or becoming a Buddhist monk
Also keeping in mind I have Asbergers and am an extreme em path, Shitty combination on any day.
You get overwhelmed with every emotion within 1000 miles and have no idea what any of them mean or worse still if they are directed at me.
Your thoughts are welcome
