Comment from Amira.Naguib
Starting with questions, is always brilliant, it challenges the mind, adding to it that you ask the right questions, the questions that are asked by each one in the back of their heads, but out vanity is discarded.
In the second paragraph by adding the word "probability" you feed your readers' ego, you give them the satisfaction of the probability of not being that stupid to do such stupid things, yet they keep reading as their subconscious mind has been challenged by the questions in which they have answered "NO" as you said. Then smoothly you refute what they are doing and give evidence that are unbreakable that what they are doing will only make them unhappy and will not lead to what they striving for.
After that you present the solutions, summing up with facts from the society surrounding them that what you presented actually works.
i love it.

i am more than happy that you find my review insightful, this was actually a way for me test my writing abilities, i have always wanted to actually write some of my ideas and post it some where, but i was intimidated, i wish you would review what i post on this website, it would be of great deal to me.
Thanks

very well written and constructed and constructive look at anger issues and how to find the mental possitive attitude to cope with them. although i might question "have a belief in the impossible" i would personally go for 'the plausible, is the feasibly possible' phylosophy, the author of this offers a very clear way to elevate those that are particularly down

Thanks for this inspirational piece. It came at a point in my life as I looking back when that only frustrates. Looking and moving forward is the only solution. Past mistakes are only good to remember what we should not do again.
Thanks again.

This essay is well written and full of positive advice and strategies. While I don't share your rosey view of life and self-help, I applaud your efforts at encouragement and support to those whose lives are on the skids. I noticed a few spelling and grammar issues. There's no need for a comma after doggedness in your next to last paragraph. Suceed is spelled incorrectly. A comma, not a semi-colon, is what you need in your second sentence in your Develop a Vision section. Good work.

I wish we were standing face to face so I could take your hand and shake it. Every word is spot on. A year ago I was an angry woman and going exactly where you suggest - nowhere! I'm not sure who I was angry with, but being widowed was the catalyst. Without my soul mate, this was a very strange place, and all I knew was that it wasn't my fault. Having said that, I let it drag me down until very recently. Now ready to take on the world, and in the throws of doing so, I enjoyed reading this excellent piece of writing.
I just wish I had read it a year ago and not wasted so much time!
Kudos, my friend. I thoroughly enjoyed this!

Attitude is everything, we can change our attitude and how we see things. I try to see problems as challenges, not problems. I like your paragraph about anger, so many people wast time with negativity and being crabby. Things do change when we think positively and try to be pleasant instead of yelling at everyone.

Really interesting post. I do think many do that. I have spent my life teaching, so I have always played the role of conflict manager. Okay, there may have been a few times I can remember having blown up (finding out about wrecked cars, stupid decisions my kids made). Most of my life I have always practiced the conflict resolution model in situations that require it. Always comes out much better. Good job!

a powerful opening question - this is such a common thing that I imagine almost all readers are answering yes, that this has happened to them at least once in a while in their lives

you offer very wise advice, and I too believe people can change
