3 Steps to Losing an Allie
I donât think Ive ever seen a better time in my life to apply this rule. Right now a whole lot of people on so many spectrums of life are on the verge of losing alies which really isnât what we should be doing right now i will not point any fingers at any people or groups because all sides of big issues are doing it.Â
Sometimes it may take less than 3, sometimes more, but on average, it only takes 3 strikes to ruin something. There is a reason why 3 is that magic number and it is because it shows it is a pattern, and not a freak event or even 2, no, this shows a behavior.Â
Say you love dogs. You have even had dogs that you loved but one day you got attacked by a dog, itâs likely you will think it was a freak event, maybe you think it might have been your fault, itâs ok, youâll be more careful from now on. later, you are bitten by another dog, Okay... maybe its just that dog in particular? You may move forward but now youâre leary of dogs. Later youâre attacked by another dog. âNo! i didnât do anything wrong, im staying away from dogs all togetherâ. Some people may need a 4th or 5th time but normally, 3 is enough.
if this had been just your dog, by the 3rd time he attacks you, you know he has the problem. Time to seperate yourself from this dog, but 3 random dogs makes you distrust dogs all together.
Now lets say youâre married or dating, and your partner cheats. If you love your partner, its likely youâll think its a freak event and you forgive them. Later, they do it again, hmmm maybe itâs youâre fault? Even so... youâre going to be leary now. Third cheat comes and now you know its a pattern and you say âsee ya!â Repeat this process with your next 2 partners and now you have lost trust in that kind of person, or maybe even an entire gender.
Employers do the same thing, whether you are new or have been a loyal employee for years. Call out one day, youâre ok... call out the next day âbring in a doctors noteâ call out the next day, youâre fired.
This applies to everything from friends, foods, stores, restaurants, manufacturers, and even religions, races, and professions. Please, everyone, no matter who you are, look at yourself, who have you hurt? What strike are you on? if you get that 3rd strike, who else does it hurt?
NO ONE needs less allies now. So lets all try to prevent creating a pattern that drives them away.
