This week’s CHART focuses on Your Ego’s Check Cashing Privileges
Another one of those easy to read charts. This week, I am sharing with you the results of a scientific study conducted in 1986 on the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71).
As you can see, this chart depicts the amount of “checks” your EGO writes and the ACTUAL number of checks that you CANNOT cash.
Hopefully, you can extrapolate from all that.

P.S. there was no scientific study in 1986 as I am referring to the scene with Maverick in the Captain’s Quarters in movie TOP GUN.
This week’s CHART focuses on Who Do You Think You Are Fooling.
This is another one of those chart that you really have to pay close attention to.
The left side (Vertical) shows the Number Of People You Think You Are Fooling. At the top is ALL THE PEOPLE and that bottom of that scale is SOME OF THE PEOPLE.
The bottom (Horizontal) shows the ACTUAL Number of People You Are Actually Fooling. The scale from left to right shows LOW number of people to the far right is NONE OF THE PEOPLE.
Only FOOLS believe they can FOOL any number of people. They get the idea that they can fool people from the people they are trying to fool. See no one wants to be fooled.
People are naturally on guard for people trying to pull the wool over their eyes. They see right through you every time. So how do people get away with fooling others?
Simple, those targeted to be fooled usually do NOT want to stir pot, cause problems, start a fight so naturally they submit to the individual that is trying to get one over.
Eventually, enough is enough and for the person used to or allowed to “fool” others the jig is up. It is up because in the end they realize they were fooling no one.
This week’s CHART focuses on YOUR Expectations of Getting Because You Give
Please pay attention the entire chart. If you are not paying attention, you WILL miss it.
On the left side (the VERTICAL), is YOUR level of Expecting Something in Return AFTER you gave something. The scale goes from HIGH Expectation to Low Expectation.
On the bottom (the HORIZONTAL), is WHAT YOU ACTUALLY GET BACK. The scale goes from the left, tagged as LITTLE, to the right, tagged as NONE. That’s right it goes from LITTLE to NONE!
Folks, if you want to live a VERY HAPPY LIFE then just STOP expecting something in return after you gave something. Unless, you are in a department store and you pay for something they you better get something in return. That is call COMMERCE.
However, as we are in the season of giving, please DO NOT expect to get anything back. Go around flaunting that you gave with the sole intention of getting a compliment or a pat on the back; seriously?
If you expecting something in return is why you do things, then do yourself a huge favor and STOP GIVING. Give because you want to and NOT because you want the accolades and validation. Seriously, just stop.
