As We Live SELFISHNESS MOT INCURABLE TRAIT A selfish person is his own worst enemy. He makes others dislike him and this, in turn, makes him un- -1 happy. The sents the way people treat him. the more selfish he is likely to be come. This sets in motion a vicious cir cle that is hard to break. Dr. Hnrleck However, it can be broken if the selfish persons wants to do so badly enough. Before he is willing to make the effort, he must be convinced that he will profit more from being reason abb unselfish than from being selfish. Just telling a person that un selfishness pays big dividends rarely makes any impression. His whole point of view is direc ted so to himself and bis inter ests that he cannot understand how it would help him to think mora of other people than of himself. Therefore, the only wax to make him realize that this is true Is to let him see how it works in real life. Pointing out the suc cesses of others who are unsel fish is one good way to drive homa the benefits of unselfish ness. An even better approach is to have the selfish person see how unselfishness works in his own 5 a.m. to 12 Midnight Featuring Complete Dinners Short Orders Fountain Service o .

One big obstacle that every selfish person faces when he tries to change is skepticism on the part of others. People won der if his unselfishness is just an attempt to get something from them. Only if he is willing to con tinue to be unselfish over a long enough period to break down this skepticism about his mo tives will he be able to see for himself that unselfishness does pay bid dividends in the long run. Furthermore, he gains enough satisfaction from . doing things for others and from, their appre ciation of his effort that he will feel he is getting more from being unselfish than he ever got from being selfish. LETTERS FROM READERS "I feel depressed so much of the time that I am not a very . companionable person to ray family or anyone else. I really have nothing to be depressed about and I don't understand why I feel as I do. Can you help me?" (A) Feeling depressed may come from worry or it may come from a physical cause. Look into the possibility of a physical cause for your feelings of de pression. I suggest that you have a complete checkup by your doc tor. As you begin to feel better physically, I think you will find that your general morale will improve too. If it doesn't, then try to discover if you actually have more worry on your mind than you think. "My husband, and I are middle-aged people with married children and grandchildren. I have noticed that my husband and most of his friends are be ginning to act like teenage boys. They want to be on the go all the time and spend more money on clothes than they ever did before. What makes men do this?" (A) When the cares and re sponsibilities of raising a fam ily are finished, many men like to have a good time and make up for what they had to miss while their families were grow ing up. With fewer financial re sponsibilities, they feel they can afford more clothes and more good times. I think you would be wise to join your husband in his good times and to get yourself as up-to-date a ward robe as he has. (COPYRIGHT 1955, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.) Auburn, N.Y.
