It builds and builds inside us, until it finds a way out by causing either physical or emotional sickness. What we have to do, is to remove the causes of that inner stress from our lives.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[How on earth are we born with so much prospective for emotional achievement, yet we wind up making ourselves throw up, murdering people who don't cooperate with us, punching people in the throat who speak their mind and making ourselves depressed when we find ourselves cheated on, taken advantage of, lied to and criticized?   Well, the answer to this question, for me, is to ask myself what I am afraid of. Once I discover the answer to that question, I can often begin to discover the source of nearly any emotional challenge I encounter in myself and...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Bullying is imagined as a childish behavior, albeit something quite harmful, often occurring on the playground or while riding home on the school bus. Bullying is generally perceived as a predictable event of adolescent development that we, as adults, are expected to prevent and deter. I can clearly remember a few times when I had been bullied as a child, by kids who were either bigger than me or just more aggressive. The majority of my experiences with bullying, however, have taken place in adulthood, in my various workplaces while under the supervision of a bully. The broad leeway we give to managers in how they can use their powers over others less capable of fighting back is a bit more sanctioned - out of reach of the kind of criticism we use to judge children who bully.]]></description>

Personally I judge genius in everyone (especially children) by observing their use of language - their speaking, writing ability and verbal expression.

<description><![CDATA[As our culture continues to accept the phrases, "He makes me so mad," and "They piss me off," as balanced, sane and reasonable explanations for the source of their emotions, we will be forever a culture of nuts. These phrases, although quite common, are nothing more than products of magical thinking. You will be moving exponentially forward if you take a moment to examine the veracity of these statements and conclude that continuing to speak this way leaves little potential for improvement in emotional intelligence.
