Hey reader! This is the last part of the series of ‘The People Around You’. I am sure the previous 2 parts would have given you the idea of how this post will progress. Apparently, I believe there isn’t much left to say for an introduction to our characters, so let’s just begin… But surely there is one point to communicate that these characters are fictitious and are created only for reading and entertainment purposes. The success-o-meter. There are several kinds of meters-ammeters, voltmeters, speedometers (these are used for measuring current, voltage, speed of a vehicle) but in the human race, we have a special category of walking and talking meters. These are the success-o-meters, who will always ask you about your work, your progress and remind you that no matter how much you achieve, you can never satisfy them.

Hey reader! After my last post of  part I on March 2, 2022, you must have progressed through many situations and surely your interactions with people would also have expanded.

But after their list of problems has ended, they would sign off at a positive note that don’t worry, don’t take tension, we are always with you. These people talk in such a manner about the dangers ahead as if they are trying to persuade you to buy their insurance policy in order to avert them and then give you relief by their promise of always having your back, just like insurance agents.

Hey reader! You might have met many people in the course of your life till date and surely will be meeting a lot of wonderful ones ahead. But have you ever paused and observed all the unique people around you, all with their distinctive characteristics. Before reading further, just take a minute and recall as many as you can and then see if anyone listed below rings a bell with you… Please note that these characters are fictitious and are created only for reading and entertainment purposes. The Follow-Me kind who, as the name suggests, like that people follow them. They just love it when people ask for their advice and then even put that piece of wisdom into practice in their lives. This kind wouldn’t mind to condemn your proposed opinion if it isn’t in line with their strong beliefs and comes in the way of their pleasure of advising people. What do you do when such people are around? I would suggest the only safeguard against such people is never verbalize your opinion before them and just hear them out, if it can’t be avoided, to keep them pleased. The soft on the outside but hard on the […]
