In my experience, each failure contains the seeds of your next success—if you are willing to learn from it." ~ Paul Allen

I have always instinctively done the opposite of what people expect of me; unless, of course, people expect me to do the opposite of what’s expected of me, which can be an even bigger problem. Some parents may resort to using reverse psychology in an attempt to get their child to meet a demand, but the child may be shrewd enough to see through this. Thus, the tacit expectation will override the direct demand. For example, I have been a passionate guitar player for many years and I can recall many a time when certain family members may have innocently asked me to play them a song. I wouldn’t for obvious reasons, but sometimes they’d think before asking and would say something like, ‘Hey, Harry! Why don’t you not play us a song?’ Ha-ha! Nice try.

We fight reality every day, everywhere. We do that at work, with our family at home, and in our intimate relationships.
