MOTIVATION AND PERSONAL GROWTH
The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.
—CARL ROGERS, On Becoming a Person
TWO OUTLAWS WERE SITTING IN THE SALOON WHEN ONE SAYS TO the other, “Have you seen Billy the Kid lately?”
“Yep. I had lunch with him the other day.”
“Oh?”
“Yep, I was riding my horse over the bridge into town, and there was Billy, with a gun, pointed at me. ‘Get down off yer horse,’ he says.
“What can I do? He has the gun, so I get down off the horse.
“Billy points at a pile of horse poop. ‘See the horse poop? Eat the horse poop.’
“What can I do? He has the gun. I eat the poop.
“Then Billy laughs; he laughs so hard he drops the gun. I grab it.
