Matt, I don't understand your place with us. You get very angery when people have a believe or way of thinking that is not in your alignment.
My concern is that we are all here too learn from each other. Your message on intolerance and your message on this link is really making seem, uncooperative with other peoples views.
NLP has a set of tools to make communication barries easier to overcome. try specialising in the milton model and hypnosis. It is indirect and fun and i will get you disired results.

I have a tendancy to not see things very clear sometimes and I can also make snap decisions, which have resulted in misinformation. That really does not make me or anyone else an idiot, it makes me availble to learn something new and with sensible and effective reason everyone can be persuaded.

You should pick up the book, how to win friends and influence people and change your approach with communicating, because I really believe that you have issues with authority as I did.

Good luck.

Please re read the thread, I did not call anyone an idiot.



I have not got angry with anyone for about 10 years, please don't confuse my passion with anger.

Thanks,

Matt

Is there another Matt posting on this thread? Matt Sims doesn't seem at all angry or intolerant to me. He's one of the people whose posts are always a pleasure to read.

One must give respect in order to get it from others.

Why?

if one does not respect others, should s/he expect to get respect? do you arbitrarily show respect to people who appear to not respect you?
You don't have to respect anybody, but at the same time, you really can't expect them to show you much love either.

Yes. What's the alternative?

We could chunk down to what you really mean by respect - and how specifically someone would have to show respect for them to qualify for some respect back - but I just like the word namaste.

It's translated differently by different people, but here's a translation I like:

"The light within me honors the light within you"

Live from that place and you'll change your world.

Mr. Morris,
I agree with you as concerns meeting a person for the first time, etc. The best way to gain instant rapport with someone is to assume rapport. It was, well, not a grammatically correct statement, but I think it was a dig at me not showing a particular a-hole on here respect. So, my comment was assuming some sort of history between the parties. If someone has already shown you blantant disrespect, at some point I believe it's ok to go ahead and end the respect you've shown them up to that point.

It's certainly possible to continue thinking about it that way. I'm inviting you to try something different.

Tony. It depends what you want I guess but the best way to get something is usually to give it.

I wouldn't expect withdrawing respect to produce it in the other person.

Not saying it is easy, but probably easier than the alternative. Kids getting stabbed "because he didn't respect me"

I'm not sure if it's one of the presuppositions but I like the one that goes -

If you do what you always do you then will get what you always get

John

Gentlemen,
Honestly, my approach when someone blantantly shows me no love is to just ignore them. Sometimes they persist like a parasite and need to be put down like a rabid dog. Understand, I'm not advocating showing disrespect, I'm advocating doing nothing at all.
Chris, I do get what you're saying. Please understand, I'm a hard-headed fool. I guess it's the lack of NLP training.

If you you know it you can do something about it if you want to.

NLP has nothing to do with it

Maybe it's a good thing. Maybe it prevents me from making rash decisions by slowing down change.

NLP has everything to do with it.

Tony

Yeah, I'd be pretty scared to dismount.

It's up to you how you live. I'm just indirectly saying: follow the rules about respecting other members.

Who, may I ask, have I disrespected?

You called Matt an idiot.

This forum is read by thousands of people. I want it to be a pleasant environment for everyone. Name calling, and generally showing disrespect, is against the rules of using the free facilities here... so please either make it so you don't want to behave in that way, or just don't behave in that way.

LOL nice.

...
or read but don't post.
or just go away
or wait to be banned
...
so many choices.

John

How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?
