Do you need a flippin METHOD to make friends????

I found this:

“It can be hard for adults to form new friendships because we’re too concerned with ourselves and what others think of us. We also fear change,” says Hale Dwoskin, CEO and director of training of Sedona Training Associates.

“Both of these “adult” reactions are simply feelings that can be easily released with The Sedona Method. As you let go of these and other feelings that are standing in your way, you will find yourself more at ease and will easily be able to win friends and influence people,” he says.

The scientifically proven Sedona Method shows you how to tap your natural ability to let go of negative thought or communication patterns that may be keeping you from establishing meaningful adult friendships. Once you let go, you’ll find you are able to communicate more effectively and easily take action toward meeting new people.



What the hell??!?! I cannot make friends unless I learn the Sedona Method?!?!?! What sort of snakeoil BS is that?

THAT is a perfect example of why grown-ups have such a hard time making new friends -- because we've been cowed into thinking we need a "Method" in order to accomplish anything worthwhile (that'll be $10,000 please).

Eeesh. Go be a Scientologist, if that floats your boat.

(OK, maybe Lesson #1 for making friends is, stop ragging on the stupid stuff you find in life.)
