Answer 1

a sage once said: a wise person learns how to control his mind and himself, a fool just desires to control others. sadly for us the fool is in the vast majority. and people who have positions allowing them the "power" to assert control over others create a lot of turmoil and pain for those others. basically, those who feel the need to control others suffer from underlying feelings of low self esteem and lack of worth. my observation over the years has been it is just these people who are often driven by their dysfunction to ruthlessly climb the "corporate ladder of success", by one means or another to prove to themselves and others just how wonderful and potent they are. narcissist sociopaths abound, look around: richard nixon, george w. bush , karl rove,etc. you are on the right track: "don't let the bastards get you down", as the saying goes. one good way to deal with this omnipresent problem is to build up a reserve of energy and "tolerance" through taking good care of yourself by eating properly, exercising regularly, and meditating..check out www.sahajayoga.com for some meditation tips. and read *the complete idiot's guide to toltec wisdom* for additional tips, including on why people act the way they do. good luck!

Yes I have.

I have come far...but not far enough. I still shy away from confrontation, because I don't feel like I have enough importance to argue with people sometimes.
