| Publisher Description: Self-Help, Inspiration Suffering is a personal phenomenon. It pervades each soul tirelessly, and is responsible for countless destructive cycles, and unfulfilling lives that could otherwise be full of joy and bliss. Shakespeare, in Hamlet, told us that there is no good nor bad, "only thinking makes it so." If you decide that something is worth suffering over, and suffering requires that you act in a certain way, then no matter what the event, you will never see the opportunity in it. Further, you won't see that we, as a member of the living, have come this far, only by way of challenges. If you chose to see something as being worthy of suffering, then you inadvertently see yourself as the victim, which unfortunately holds your back from your true potential. With this book: -You'll learn how to adjust swiftly to how others treat you and to outside circumstances. -You'll begin to see the many rewards that come once you understand and start applying these simple ideas. -You'll discover exactly what adjusting is and then be able to recognize how those who don't know how to adjust, to change, will suffer longer than necessary. -You'll see that everything you need is already within you - all you have to do is apply the simple steps in this book, and then reap the many benefits We are all familiar with the notion of suffering. We have all felt it at one time or another. We have all overcome it to live another day; and, we all have ideas of why it exists and what it means to the human condition. Religions and faiths have been erected over the many concepts and definitions and many embrace suffering because they feel powerless in its shadow, and few embrace it as the stairway to greatness. The question before you now is, in which group do you see yourself? In which group do you want to be? The two notions of suffering are diametrically opposed to each other in terms of subject and, as it turns out, in terms of object. Off course, subject and object here are referred to in reference to standards of philosophy. Subject, referring to the person studying the matter at hand, and object referring to the matter at hand. The opposition in understanding and in the meaning of suffering is a subject in and of itself complex only because the history of human civilization is long and full of trial and errors. Errors we and our ancestors make are typically long-standing and last for generations which can lead us to other errors. Most of the people in this world suffer, simply because they haven't been taught a new perspective or a new way. They take any hardship as a personal assault on who they are and to a large extent, they see it as though there is a greater being, a God if you will, that has abandoned them. This feeling of abandonment results in pushback and people who feel this way end up doing the same to others. That suffering makes them bitter. Then there are those who see suffering in the same way the wise sword sees it. You see, the sword, before it was the sword, was a block of rusty ore that sat in the corner of the blacksmith's foundry. It was good for nothing until the day the blacksmith put it in the fire, beat on it as he shaped it, placed it in the fire again, set it to the grinder till sparks flew from it, as he smoothed down the rough edges, put it in the furnace again, then shock cooled it. Until one day, it became a polished blade - a sword of great things to come. The sword was better for the "pain" it went through instead of languishing in the corner of the foundry. If it had seen itself as being put to suffering, it may have cracked, it may have crumbled and at that point, would have been discarded without even one measure of achievement or purpose.
