What Have You Learned?

I agree with you on the lying. My brother was a pathological liar–the type you talk about in the book who will lie–even when the truth will fit better. I think over the years he convinced himself that he was telling the truth–no matter how tall the tale was. Today he can’t keep a job–he’s a good worker, but will miss work then lie about it–he also can’t keep a girlfriend–he lies to them too–and gets caught. Sometimes I feel sad for him because people laugh at him behind his back–but here’s what I’ve learned–that you can’t help someone until they decide they want to change and are willing to accept your help.
Thanks for your book. My son and daughter are reading it now–I’m praying that the honesty chapter rubs off on them.

I’ve been called a know-it-all before, but I must say I’ve been pretty successful. How do you explain that? Also, most of these people who refer to me as a know-it-all are not as smart or successful as me. I don’t mean this in a degrading way. So the question remains, Is it possible to seem a know-it-all to someone simply because you are smarter than that person?
Thanks,
Tom V.
