You know that I cured my cancer using the 10% Rule! There is a big irony in my story. A 40-year-old lady called me from Dr. Chen’s clinic in California and said, “I took your psychology 101 class twenty years ago. I should have listened to you. Now I have cancer. What do I do?” I said, “Don’t be hard on yourself. People don’t listen to professors because they don’t really know who has the best information – on any topic. It is not too late. Check me out on Google, find my blogs and websites and plan better, after all you did go to see my best friend in California Dr. Chen, who is the best doctor for what he does.”
The 10% Rule says that in any situation the best 10% data that can make the big difference in your life is not readily available unless you know how to ask for it.”
I will now give you the 10% information that you can apply to any situation and get the answer why people do what they do to you or to each other. By nature of the definition it will not appear in any book or psychology textbook unless you know how to ask for it. You will be able to apply it only if you know how to ask for it. This catch 22 prevents many people from benefitting from the 10% data I am about to give you. I hope that you are not one of them. The way to know if you are applying it is to look at your life every day for the next 20 years and find out that you don’t have a major problem and don’t need to call me!
Here it is:
When you deal with people from this moment on, look for 2 kinds of behaviors, those that will do things for you unconditionally and those that will do things for you conditionally. Do not get close to those that do things for you unconditionally. You will not progress. You will lose initiative and also stay dependent, and many other problems. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Then look for the other kind of behavior, those that will do things to protect their family and nation unconditionally and those that will do things to protect their family and nation conditionally. Do not get close to those who would do things for their family and nation conditionally. You will not progress. Without protecting and building your family and nation you will fail to advance. These 2 kinds of behaviors are the “hidden” 10% information about everything about your life. It applies to millions of situations. Invite the new person in your life to interact with your family to see how he behaves with them, for example. Now, if you have the courage to reflect, look at your life and find those situations that hinder your progress and discover the culprit. Do it right based on the 2 rules that I have just given you! Be a winner!
