People fall due to stubbornness rather than a lack of intelligence. However, that doesn’t mean we’ll succeed simply by letting go of stubbornness. Failure and success follow different formulas. These two subjects belong to different dimensions and involve distinct elements and processes. Still, baseless stubbornness is an issue worth considering. Because of this stubbornness, not only does one suffer, but others also experience harm. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Knowing someone and being friendly with someone are two very different things. Two main ways to build relationships with main motives are affiliation and intimacy. "Affiliation motivation" is the psychological action of getting along with others to avoid rejection. The "intimacy motive" is to increase intimacy with a select few and establish a stable relationship. It would be mentally strained to have more than 10 to 15 relationships. If you feel burdened by human relationships, you must examine your treatment of people with "affinity." The fear of being rejected is what drives the mind. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts”
