My mind is on the conversation I had yesterday with a very close friend; I have known him for more than eleven years now. He is an awesome salesperson who specializes in promoting training programs and seminars. It is one thing to sell products that you can see but to sell products that you cannot see, for example seminars, is a totally different thing. I revere him for who he is; he is exceptionally good at his work. Lately, I have not really had the opportunity for casual chats with him.

So when we actually caught up for a chat, he took me by surprise saying that he wanted to switch to selling encyclopedia. Please understand, I do not have anything against encyclopedia salespersons or the encyclopedia itself, but I was intrigued by his sudden change in choice. He reasoned out, that of late, he had not been doing well in sales. Then frustratingly he recounted the situation he was in. He was not happy; he felt that he was not treated well by those around him who are his friends and colleagues. He lamented that he was being sidelined and not given the proper respect, sounding like there was a world conspiracy against him. And he found it difficult to manage the situation especially when he had to bump into these people every day, hence he decided to switch jobs. I listened quietly and waited for him to finish.

Now, the friends and colleagues he was talking about are also my friends. The truth is that deep in their hearts, I know they love him very much. I was also aware that they tried including him in their activities together, but I noticed that he could not really flow along with the group. Most of the time, I observed that it was he who chose not to get involved in the group activities. When I mentioned to him of my observation, he retorted back asking why almost every new person he met and introduced to the group would eventually "click" with the group members but stayed away from him.

I shook my head and said that it could not be that each and every one of them was wrong, and he was the ONLY one right. He was upset when I said that. I continued and quoted, the famous motivator, Robert Proctor, which goes like this, "Well, it looks like you have to send the whole world to the psychiatrist in order for you to get better!".

He cooled down and started listening to me. I said that the whole world was a mirror image of him. The world within is the world without. You carry your environment wherever you go. Applying the powerful Nature's Law, the Law of Choosing, you choose your own thoughts that become your words and actions. This in return sets into motion the powerful Law of Vibration and Attraction that would attract the RESULTS that you desire. Then, these thoughts will be reinforced by Law of Sowing and Reaping which will ensure more such thought seeds are produced by YOU! Following this, the first law which is Law of Energy Returns Back to Source, would ensure that the whole process repeats itself infinitely.

Then, I continued saying that it was for the best if he took a look at his own thoughts, words and actions, and correct them rather than seeking faults in others! I wished him the best at his new workplace, if he decided to go ahead with it.

However, I did tell him to make sure that he corrected himself fast, or else he would encounter the similar situation, sooner than he thought, at his new workplace or wherever he went! Later, we had a quiet supper. As I headed home, I hoped my friend would make the right decision to put his life back on track. If you are reading this my friend, I just want you to know that I care for you deeply in my heart, no matter what you decide!
