How Take things for Granted Caused Big Problems and What to Do

The Cure for Taking Things for Granted: SuperME with Purpose, Love & Gratitude

The biggest issue in human relationships is this:
👉 People take things for granted.

We forget to appreciate what others have done. We treat their efforts as routine, as if they were “supposed to do it.” This silent neglect erodes connection, breeds resentment, and makes even love feel empty.

But when I discovered Purpose, Love, and Gratitude (PLG) through SuperME Unleashed, something shifted in me.

  • Purpose reminded me that every interaction is an opportunity to create meaning, not just to transact.
  • Love opened my eyes to the quiet sacrifices and unseen efforts others make daily.
  • Gratitude became my greatest discovery — learning to be thankful for everything, especially the moments and services I never requested but still received.
Now, I no longer take things for granted. Even as I write this article, I am grateful — grateful that these words can be broadcast across the internet, and grateful that you are reading them right now.

And you, dear reader, can practice gratitude too. One simple way is this:
👉 Forward this article to someone else, not because you have to, but because you are grateful for what touched your heart today.

Because gratitude, when shared, multiplies. And when we live this way, we rise from being a Survival-Me to becoming a SuperME.

"Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
