Testing to See If Someone Is a Misguided Person
If they:
- Aren’t very happy and welcoming to people new to this world.
- Act like it’s good to give people a very hard time if they are new to this world.
- Force you to change your ways by putting you in a room alone with them, or stare at you, waiting until you do something they want.
- Force you to change by hitting you until you stop doing something that seems good.
- Shout at you really loudly, asking why you do things that you believe a Learner would do to become a Wise Leader someday.
- Say their family deserves more than others as the reason for taking things from others.
- Say other people are “dumb” or “stupid” for trusting others (like calling a child dumb for leaving a toy on their lawn where it could get stolen, or calling someone dumb for hoping to marry someone they could trust).
- Are not very nice to Workers who just want to help them.
- Lie about how the world works, so you do what they want (example: saying that someone who could be a Wise Leader will get mad if you don’t stop playing, but in reality it’s the Misguided Person who is annoyed when you play).
- Lie about how you work, so you do what they want (example: saying you’re allergic to mud so you can’t play in it, when actually, they just don’t want to clean up mud).
- Force you to smile when you try one of their non-working ways, even though they know you are not happy on the inside.
You can be more and more sure they are a Misguided Person.
Finding Out They Are a Misguided Person
Now you know it would take a great deal more effort to help them than it would to get along with new friends and help the needy. They may even be beyond helping.
Now you know they will try to change you into someone you don’t want to be. You will have to take effort away from being a better person to resist them.
Now you know that you may have to rethink most of the ways they have given you, if you want to get along with different types of people.
