Why endeavor to make some changes in yourself when you can achieve what you want, not minding if this can only be done by stepping on other people's feelings? It is much easier to lead a life of quick money, of selfish deeds, of exploitation and greed. As the pursuit of a more serene life, of a better understanding of others is sometimes difficult, some say, "Why should I bother? Why spend time and energy trying to understand what my partner (or colleague/parent/boss/sibling…) feels?". They think they don't need to find a compromise, to accept somebody else's reasons because they always believe to be right. This is what they usually say to justify their behavior: Why should I? / I am not responsible for anyone else / I take care of myself and so should they / No one worries about my feelings / It's not fair. Thus you, too - if you belong to such “flock” - find excuses for your attitude towards indifference, impatience, even rejection.
