He's a Bozo

He looked me dead in the eyes and said

“No matter what, when you first meet someone, assume they are a bozo”

….What?

“Yeah, until someone proves that what they are saying and how they talk also reflect to the results that they have in life, they are a bozo”

This was a real conversation I had with a friend of mine who deals with a lot of people.

He has been burned by many a bozo in his lifetime.

It is true though. Anyone can talk.

Actions speak louder than words.

Everyone has heard that, but what does it actually mean?

Heres what I know from experience.

You can tell very easily if someone is being authentic with you if the results they have in life (where they are at in life) is in line with what they are speaking of and how they speak of it.

You can especially tell that someone is being authentic when they aren’t trying to tell you about all the awesome stuff they are up to, but you can clearly see that they are walking the walk.

You have to be an expert in being able to tell if someone KNOWS what they are talking about VS “Knowing about” what they are talking about.

When you KNOW something it’s because you have experienced it yourself, you lived it.

When you speak it, it comes out as pure wisdom.

Knowing about something is when you have heard or seen information from someone or somewhere but you haven’t lived it in order to KNOW its true.

When you KNOW something you don’t need to ask clarifying questions because you know the ins and outs and nuances.

Wisdom comes from experience. (Knowing)

Knowledge is repeated from another source. (Knowing about)

So how do you tell if someone is being unauthentic and only talking about things they KNOW ABOUT?

Simple.

Be curious and ask questions that only someone who really lived it would know the answer to.

You will be able to pick up on BS right away.

When their answers are not specific…

When they are broad or loose with their answer…

When they change the subject or KEEP answering back with questions…

Bingo! That’s a bozo!

Now that you know how to differentiate bozos with people who are authentic,

You have no excuses.

You shouldn’t be letting even one bozo into your close circle of friends and partners.

You can certainly associate with them occasionally, they are impossible not to if your putting yourself out there and you ARE authentic.

Bozos love people that are authentic, they want to be like you, they want what you have 9 times out of 10.

This can be an advantage because now that you know not to fully trust them and fully express all of your love to them, you can get them to be on your side and stand for you, even if you don’t let them stand NEAR YOU.

Never shy away from doing surface level business with a bozo, they are easy buyers.

Surface level business means: a simple transaction of goods and services, nothing else.

DON’T EVER become business partners, roommates, best friends, or romantic partners with a bozo.

This is how you throw a wrench in whatever chapter of life you are in.

The light of God works through people.

But so does the darkness.

So there you have it.

Now that you know this powerful information,

You better walk it like you talk it.

And if you do, you will only attract people who also walk it like they talk it.

Go live a fun life- Golden
