Wallace
I would suggest listening to Schwarzenegger’s Life’s Six
Rules on YouTube if you haven’t heard it, as it is probably my favorite
speeches. Wallace does kind of remind me
of myself though. I’m cynical as hell
but I try my best not to go on that default setting, otherwise I would just be
really pissed off all of the time. It
can be awfully difficult to pay attention to what’s right in front of you
instead of what’s going on inside your head.
I can’t count the number of times that I have based something that
someone has done to annoy me upon an internal attribution rather than on an
external one…and that seems to be the default.
Everyone can remember a time when they’ve been cut off while driving or
in any line and thought something around the lines of, “That stupid P.O.S.” As I’ve gotten older it’s been easier for me
to stay calm and assume that there’s a reason for a person acting this way
rather than him/her being mentally deficient.
Since I rarely flip the bird anymore, unless I’m really upset, I shall
assume that college is working and continue to attend.
