I've been in sales for the last 13 years and I have always created enemies with increased results and spotlight. It amazes me how people feel threatened and begin to sabotage and undermine inorder to level the playing field and comfort their insecurities. No wonder so many managers "hire down" to protect their position. Love the post. Regards Brad This post couldn’t have hit the nail on the head any better.

As a young teacher working in a College, Recently I was confused by the fact that I never hurt anyone intentionally but there are always someone want to attack me. My opinion on Sexuality in China bring me trouble I never expected. Whatever ,If this kind of thing happen again ,I will reread your article, get courage and comfort, more importantly , put my mind in the right thinking track. Thank you. best wishes Chendan frank:

Too bad, but that is human nature. There are people who don't want to hitch a ride on a rising star...they would rather shoot it down. A perverse kind of pleasure, no?

I have a strong suspicion you will love it!! I was very skeptical when Studio 60 was recommended to me but after one episode I was hooked. I just spent a good part of this past weekend watching episode after episode. Frank:
