Nodal Point of Thought 2024-01-19

I heard about one person who didn’t participate when everyone else was playing a game.

• They said, “Let’s do it.” I said, “I don’t do that kind of thing.”
• I said, “Well, let’s leave him alone,” and the others said, “No, let’s leave him alone.”
• I left one of them alone and we all enjoyed the game together.
• Finally, that person who did not participate said, “It still doesn’t sound interesting.”

I said, “That sounds like ‘those grapes must be sour. - sour grapes

poor

• I’m triggering myself and hurting my own self-esteem.
  • You don’t realize it.
• I’m getting more and more stubborn and the world is closing in.
  • For example, if the people who played the game at that time say, “That was fun, let’s do it again,” the people who said “no” are not invited.
• Everyone around you knows you’re weak, trying to appear willful and strong.

It’s about one person who doesn’t participate when everyone else is working on something.

• We’re all doing something together.
  • You can join us, too, and we invite you to join us!
• And yet there was an uncle who didn’t participate and was criticizing them at a distance.
• If he’d been in the loop and spoken up, he might have helped others, but he was just mumbling from afar, so he was never used in a useful way.

Afraid to participate?

• Are you too afraid to approach a stranger to have an equal conversation with them and are you throwing stones from afar?
• And it never occurred to you that the people around you would think that you are a good person?
• Fellow of “[I am afraid of not knowing.
  • For example, if you’re in a position where people are asking you questions, you have to say you don’t know what you don’t know.
    • Well, some people pretend to understand and call bullshit.
  • If you don’t participate in the event, you won’t be in a position to ask questions.
    • Just tell us what you know.
      • Avoids the “I don’t know.”
  • Uh, “position” is “position.” - Critics who take no position.

The story of an uncle who can’t ask for advice.

• People who act like they want advice without asking for it.
• I said, “It’s hard to ask people for things.”
• Why is it so difficult?
  • To ask is to undermine self-esteem, and if your self-esteem is on the edge, you can’t afford to undermine it a little bit, so you’re just being stubborn.
  • If you have enough self-esteem, a decrease to the point of asking for a favor or apologizing can be quickly regained.
  • ears of rice drooping like beehives as they ripen
    • Empty barrels resonate well.

The first “who wasn’t in the game.”

• In fact, his self-esteem was on the edge and he couldn’t even stand to play the game as an equal and lose?

• Did you want to gain self-esteem by being “begged” not to say that and to please join us for your refusal?

  • As a result, they ignored me, they played games with me, and I got the message, “We don’t need you.”

• break bricks

• A world of speed

• People who just collect and use them misidentify the belongings of those who make them as found objects.
