 Do you know what's going on behind "I will call you back" but they (almost) never do?

If you tend to 'go along to get along' you may be saying 'yes' when you know damn well it's a 'NO!' It takes courage, and maybe it's a risk, but if you don't...if you ignore that nudge, you will pay for it in much bigger ways. When you come across somebody...anybody...from now on, and you get that hunch to take a hike, do it! Separate yourself. Permission to leave. Whatever. Get up and go long. It's OK to be on your way. Dealing with a dumbass isn't always about kicking them to the curb...often, it's about YOU taking a step off the curb. Enjoy the show!

How we respond is only everything - it sets in motion a 'tune' of vibration that can help, or hinder, your path. How would you respond to the women mentioned in today's episode? Are you "addicted" to people being nice or can you just "prefer it"?

In the end, how you feel as they move on is what sticks, and impacts, your state of mind. Don't let a dumbass doing dumbass stuff get on your nerves anymore!

Do you ever get stuck trying to figure out why someone does what they do because you hope you can somehow fix it? The topic today will help you let go instead of digging into someone else's mind hoping for answers. 

Remember one thing: you can't ask a liar for the truth. You wouldn't return to the stylist who botched your hair and have her fix it, would you?  AND YET, WE DO! 

If you expect a dishonest person to keep it real with you suddenly, think that one through again. You can't expect a straight answer to WHY?! when it comes to the dumbass stuff people do, either. This show supports you in 'quick release' of what and who no longer serves, and this will serve you well!

How much leeway you give is how much others will take. What is your tolerance level for the undue chaos a dumbass brings to your world? The answer is: it depends.

Check your rate of tolerance because you might be putting up with more than you need to...and that draws more of the same right to you. Ain't nobody got time for dat!  Did you ditch a dumbass?

I was a dumbass...I mean, I thought I was being smart, getting help from someone who supposedly knew better than me: I was chosen as the featured guest on the pilot episode of Steve Harvey's "Blind Date Dating Lab."
