RE: The "Feel-Good" Pleasure-Trap Focus
Indeed, it ties into that as well, fear of conflict, then when people feel not-good because you say things they dont want to hear, they might not like you, then they might not want to be your friend. We all know this intuitively hehe. I mention that if you put pleasure mottos as #1 above more important things like understanding how to live right/morally, it's a detriment that hinders proper moral understanding. Putting money above morality does the same.
Thanks for your feedback and your personal experience with this. :)
You hit the nail on the head with that one. I do people please because I worry too much about making someone not feel good and therefore not want to be my friend.
I have also thought about the fact that if I don't people please and choose to say what I really think, it can help both me and the person I am talking to grow. Thanks for the post!
Truth is the way out :) You're welcome, glad to provide this self-knowledge, and thanks for the feedback.
