Trick or Treat Happy Halloween everyone ! ( thanks to the immigrant Irish )

Ok ! Before I go onto another amateur psychology rant unsolicited lesson plan let me address the concern about being considered trash….. No ! People will never be trash, because everyone has a Devine spirit. We consistently misspeak or miss interpret in this regard, because phycology is complex.

Lesson Plan # 1 :
Pride is a personal thought that provides personal feelings, then those feelings provide us with an attitude, this attitude moves us to a particular behavior, and that behavior not only perpetuates itself in us, but becomes the outward appearance to our fellow man. Then ultimately that pattern provides the daily experiences.

Lesson Plan # 2 : work backwards !

As installers, we want the floor to look professional, so how do we make that happen ? ….. do we think a poor behavior
will get us there ? Probably not ! That’s why decorum is so important in everyday activities. It provides healthy Pride over Defensive Pride. Two very different things and the key towards improving our professionalism. Chances are, when choosing to work slightly backwards, with decorum as the template for our behavior, we may be surprised about the results, the experience, of not just a professional looking floor, but also flooring the people around us with dare I say love.



Final thought, Lesson Plan 3

We all have built in phycological filters, as it relates to processing information. This cleansing or sifting through heavy garbage can allow some to see the benefits, where others only respond to the garbage.

Could a daily intention of Decorum break through all of that and provide improved communication ?

Lol. I read "Trick and Communication" only.

And you’re probably better off for it
I tend to overthink / over communicate basic ideas.….Communication is tricky business, but I share in the off chance it falls and helps receptive ears.

Don’t worry, the ( PAPGM ) Passive Aggressive Peddling Garbage Man, is a comin, to fix everything under the sun

O- dear God, please allow PAPGM to win, because I’d rather listen to media’s Impeachment plans, than relive another peaceful protest at the Capital.

Note: FYI, the above statement is me being passive aggressive. I only did that so we could refer back to it as an example.

Seriously,
Ask yourself ( Dem or Repub ) what’s happening here ? And how does it all become clear ? ….. Hint, it doesn’t start with us acting aggressively, passively or passively aggressive towards people and groups . All that’s required is a commitment to Decorum during disagreements. Decorum is the lesson being taught and needed in such a huge way.

So ! Please heed this message, because ! decorum/ respect will not only keep marriage’s going, so too it can bring groups and countries together, or back together

When they disrespect you, you have a choice, disrespect back or respect yourself enough to remain in decorum. If they disrespect you and you disrespect them, decorum becomes nonexistent, and we tend to repeat hard historical lessons over and over again not understanding what went wrong

Whom ever wins ( scratch that) becomes elected, let’s make one point clear….. it’s time to heal wounds of disrespect by committing ourselves to an attitude of decorum, rather than choosing blame or Goating , I mean Gloating.

May God continue to bless us, so we can clean up this mess

If Kamala ends up winning, I see a bright side. Looks like the house and Senate are a slam dunk Red, so she won't be able to do the damage she promised to do.
......wait a minute. ....no matter how badly she's badgered by the right OR left media in interviews...... she still won't tell you her plans, her agenda, her platform.
It appears that she's pro fracking, pro gun, but she's anti-Hitler and that's always confused me.
Literally half the country is pro-Hitler, pro-Nazi, pro-fascist , pro dirty drinking water, pro-dirty air for their grandchildren to breath, pro oil slicks on land and sea....
He's also pro-legal voting, something that the 3 libs on the supreme Court are against. They voted to allow people what are not legal citizens to vote.
Was that West Virginia?
What kind of Un-American P's O sheite would fight all the way to the Supreme Court, to fight ald literally insist that illegal aliens be allowed to vote.

I'm sorry, but i voted a straight "Pro" ticket. Geeter dun I sayz.

That orange guy doesn't resemble the 2016 Orange guy. He's pro-pot, isn't getting into the abortion issue because he put that into the states hands.

People that hate him, don't have the guts to listen to him. They just listen to sound bites and eat them up like tofu. That's how they know and understand him. Call a man Hitler enough times and word association makes him Hitler.
.....to brainwashed fools and suckers.

Libs don't have a clue what Kamala will do... She won't say.
......ok, free transgender sex change in prisons for illegal aliens. $25, 000 checks for first home buyers.
Electric only car sales by 2035 whether you want them or not.
First amendment replaced by misinformation filters.

....but anything is better than the orange guy that they won't listen to even tho he lays everything out without the slightest hesitation.... No games, no word salads. You ask him once and in 3 or 4 seconds, you'll hear enough to know exactly what he thinks. No dancing around, he immediately starts answering what he was asked.

It would be a close contest between the two of us and which wins the over thinker award..... I'm pretty damn good.

That’s a good example of people choosing to speak undisciplined. Devine choice is in us, hiding So how do we encourage each other and ourselves to let it out ? ……. Take a commitment to Decorum in communication.

Story Time Me and my 25 year old friend got removed from the ski slope for breaking Decorum on the ski slope. We were dangerously weaving in and out of other skiers, racing . They made us watch an hour long safety on the slopes video to teach us personal responsibility. They didn’t call us Malignant Narcissists, they chose a more professional approach with Decorum, by giving us two choices, take the course and continue or leave.

I see a new Federal Department of Decorum in our future

Harris is talking about attacking Social Security. Giving to illegals. Raising Soc sec taxes. Trump says he won't touch soc sec. Hey, I am struggling to get by. Any less and I won't be able to pay bills.

I'm still befuddled that my SS is increasing 2%, but my insurance (which is paid out from my SS $) is increasing 31%!

My family will be losing $400 with this 2% increase in our Social Security.

Wins ? … how about we share the participation only

IMHO , what it appears the GOP campaign wants us to think about is the LCD’s ( least common denominator’s) as much as possible. Maybe that’s why the competition continues to battle back in like minded methods.

Anywho, what are some of these LCD’s …..Strength vs Weakness, Winners vs Losers, Loyalists vs Defectors , Liars vs
Truth tellers, Fake news vs Real news, Male vs Female, White race vs All other races, Threats vs Security ( personal, and national ) Christians and Jews vs Muslims.

This style will give us an Election Day of the likes never seen before in the history of man kind. Sorry , I couldn’t help myself and the comfort zone pattern I am choosing to have at this time, called ‘Passive Aggressive ‘ behavior, pointed against other people or groups who think differently than me…… Could a committed daily vow of Decorum snap me and us out of that dysfunctional style ?

Is anyone brave enough to answer that question

Washington Woke (Post) is on the side of liberals, therefore they will use their platform to criticize any and all Conservative plans / people that don’t fit their ideals. This is free press in action, rinse and repeat, all day looong and on both sides.

The current GOP party is the media’s underdog. That’s why he’s being so outrageous, to get exposure. Maybe he’s narcissistic too, but who cares, because I think most people would not eliminate voting for a narcissist, if they had sound ideals and improved communication decorum, but It’s complicated because too much decorum in today’s political world is looked upon as Woke

For Better or for worse, it doesn’t matter, but what does matter is how the GOP is responding … Have they adequately addressed concerns in a way that’s building confidence OR Have they reacted unreasonably, posing doubt in their abilities ? …… I’m still on the fence about giggling Kamala, but actually for me, my vote won’t matter anyway, as the district I’m in will clearly go Red with or without me.

I have issues with both candidates so I'm not voting because to me then I'm agreeing with the issues.

If we could scale a ‘ no voting ‘ protest nation wide, WOW maybe that would put both parties on notice, to bring forth quality candidates who are willing to have bipartisan attitudes.

I'm 100 % against participation trophy's past kindergarten or first grade. No lessons learned to prepare for leadership roles later in life unless there's winners and losers.

One thing is certain. If Kamala is elected, there will probably never in our history a Republican voted into office.

You notice the millions of people allowed into our country illegally.
10 million, 15, 20?

They have been spread across the country and a LOT of them into swing states.... States where a few hundred or a few thousand can decide red or blue.
Let's add a few hundred thousand guaranteed Democrat votes to each of those deciding swing states. The result would be obvious.
That is the only reason the border has been wide open for 4 years. These people will be forever appreciative, but only to the Democrat party.

As we speak, some states are already trying to make it possible for those non citizens to vote.
If you were here illegally, and Republicans told you they were going to send you back home...... would you ever be inclined to vote Republican?

That's the largest reason by far to vote.

You don't have to like either candidate to vote.

Lets rephrase that

Could a personal and political party, daily vow made, committed towards Decorum in conversation, snap us out of current days dysfunction style of communication ?

That’s funny because in my brain, the interpretation is YES ! ( dumb and dumber )

How do we get ‘ all new membership ‘ even if still there physically ? …. IS THAT POSSIBLE ? Could ‘ Top Down’ leadership activate our hidden ‘ Devine Attributes ‘ or attitudes ? ? I believe we all possess this ‘ Top Down ‘ Power, OR Am I living in a movie like phantasy ?

Proposal: The same way Donald has activated ‘ Fight Fight Fight Attitudes ‘ in
many of the population, doesn’t mean everyone lacks ‘ Devine ‘ ones too,
agree or disagree ? If we agree, the only conclusion in that proposal, is that
It can be done, that it is being done and that it has been done in the past. None of us are unredeemable in life and even after death….. We are more Social / Herd Followers than we would admit …. Different Leadership Attitudes, can bring out our different attributes….. I wonder how we would see ourselves, if he said, Love, Love, Love, rather than fight, fight, fight ? ? ….. If he said ‘ I guess maybe in some way maybe my words could have reasonably activated the ‘ Killing ‘ attitude in those two people. Something to ponder over or not while sipping the Happy Sunday coffee.
