Trang 9Lost in the woods
“When an individual gets really confused is when he or she has lost a
sequence of orientation-points And after a while he says, ‘To hell with it! Everything’s in motion!’
“Well, that’s the definition of confusion Everything is in motion in
relationship to nothing—no orientation-point If you ever want to find yourself in the woods, this is the way you go about it You don’t look for moss on the underside of your shoes You don’t immediately put up
sticks to find out where north is because the chances are, you didn’t
know where north was when you left the point you left to get to where you were lost
“The way you find yourself in the woods is first, find your sanity That’s the
first thing you find RH

On the subject of communication,
I want to do the right thing but I
am not doing it because no one
taught me the rules’
‘During and after university, I was unaware of the level of detail required in presenting myself’
‘I was taught everything except how
to get a job’
‘We are like lost puppies
We have degrees but we cannot even speak properly I never asked my teachers why I scored low marks in presentations and they never told me Result was that I thought that I was useless’ GIP
Not your fault
