People and their nature:
1. Laziness: Given a choice between an easier way and a harder way, we will always choose the easier option because the sooner we get the job done the sooner we can enjoy.
2. Greedy: Given a choice between more or less, we strive to maximize what we get.
3. Ambition: All human actions are motivated by a desire for improvement in our condition. Even a person who jumps off a building to commit suicide believes that he would be better off by putting an end to his life than by being alive
4. Self-Interest: Each person thinks, feels, acts and experiences happiness or sorrow, by and for himself/herself.
5. Ignorance: We all are ignorant.
6. Vanity: Human beings have ego. We think highly of ourselves.
What People wants?
1. Security: Security of life and health. Physical security, economic security, emotional security etc. Lack of security makes us angry, fearful and defensive.
2. Comfort: After security, human wants comfort.
3. Leisure: We want to relax and take time off work.
4. Love: Each of us needs to be loved to feel fully human, and we strive for love all our lives.
5. Respect: We need to be recognized and respected by others outside our family group. Because we are basically vain, we seek the praise and appreciation of other people
6. Fulfillment: People wants to know the meaning and purpose of their life.
The human race is made up of people—you and I— who are basically lazy, greedy, ambitious, selfish, ignorant and vain. All of them are striving for the same things: security, comfort, leisure, love, respect and fulfillment.
Some people get it. Some don't. Why?
