1243. Villains and snakes

Pursue anything, a goal, a career. Villains are sure to appear. They will actively wish your failure. The motives are too many, sometimes unconceivable. They may be sadists, driven by jealousy, or simply be victims of habit.

This happens so often, that you may take it for granted that the path to your goal will not be smooth, it will be barred by these people. Added to the normal setbacks which also are sure to appear, the situation at times dampens our enthusiasm. Many sensitive people have dropped pursuing their goals altogether, because of these.


But think again. Will a snake-and-ladder game be as interesting if it had only ladders and no snakes? Each time you cross a snake unscathed, you experience a flow of joy. This joy is effectively provided by the snake, whether you like to agree or not.
