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

case, if he can be persuaded to
give the matter a reasonable try.
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.
