Hi everyone!
Have I got a treat for you today: an article on gaslighting! I had fully intended to get this to you before the holidays but as they say, “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” I actually disagree with this. I’d say, “The road to hell is paved with bad intentions, disguised as good ones,” which fits nicely with our topic today. At any rate, this should still serve you well in the upcoming new year and while trying to make sense of what happened during your many joyous encounters with certain personalities (and personality disorders) this holiday season. You’re welcome.
And as a special bonus, I’ve even made you a video. I know I made it very clear in my last newsletter how much I hate being on display in front of a camera, and I maintain that I do hate it, but… I’m told that “the people” like videos and if I want to market my business and sell something, I should give the people what they want. If I had my way, I’d just write manifestos all day and hope to draw in dedicated customers. But, apparently, I need to create something called a “sales funnel” to lure you in. I use this “sales funnel” to hook you with a series of short videos, then I convince you to read my 143-page manifesto, and after that, I convince you to take action to grow and evolve as a human being, and before you know it, you’ve signed over the deed to your house. It sounds like a great business model to me, so I’m going to give it a try. I just hope that making this video doesn’t tarnish the recluse image I’ve worked so hard to cultivate. ;)
(Oh, and in case you are wondering, the book is much better than the movie, so I’d recommend reading the full article by clicking the link below. The video can also be accessed with this link.)
