Someone asked me why I do all this. I really like to. I like helping people. Another person
called me today and asked me if I like getting yelled at and insulted. I told this person
that for everyone complaint, I get around 100 testimonials. I think I have only had 25
really mean emails sent. Maybe 26. Many people write one thing one day and then
write back and say they are sorry.<\/p>\n
It takes a big person to say sorry. That makes me feel good.<\/p>\n
I do however get a lot of emails. Some are a waste.<\/p>\n
They are a waste of time for both the people
sending them and for me when I read them.For example, I got one that
said “My husband is driving me crazy. I can’ttake it. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!”<\/p>\n
Or another one I got:”My job is making me sick. Help me.”<\/p>\n
Here is my problem with these. I understand the genuine distress
behind them, and I sympathize with their pain, but there is nothing
I can do with that kind of “non-information.” If I wanted to help, you
know how much more info I would need to help!I really wish people
would be serious about asking for help.<\/p>\n
I am a huge believer in asking for help. It’s the main reason that I
was able to helpmy mom. When she was sick, I asked everyone
for help. I had SPECIFIC questions.I asked the money people specific,
money-related questions. I asked thedoctors specific questions.
I asked the therapists specific questions.<\/p>\n
I didn’t say”My life stinks, my mom is sick, help.” When asking questions,
ask specific questions. Don’t just make vague statements and attach the
word help and expect to get it.<\/p>\n
I got another email from someone today saying my grammar is terrible and so is my
spellling. I don’t think my spelling is bad thanks for Microsoft. As for my grammar, who
knows.<\/p>\n
I am really confident that people understand what I am writing. And when it counts, I get
everything edited. I don’t have things like my blog edited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
