‘Normal’ people are so frustrating.

Especially because they don’t exist.

And yet still force their ‘normal’ ways on you.

This stuff really is annoying me. The neutrality they employ feels naive to me. Even though I used to approach life in a way similar to ‘neutral’.

Ugh.

This kind of annoys me. But it’s also good.

It’s just drenched in that frustratingly dispassionate, distant energy that 9 out of 10 times seems so inauthentic, functional, instrumental, and definitely not genuine.

But this seems to be that 1 out of 10.

This book kind of normalises my lived experience in daily life. It’s odd.

Normally, I cringe at books such as this. But, I’m considering to pursue a career as a change consultant, and the firm I’m interested in listed this book as one they’re inspired by. So, I figured I’d give it a try.

So far, I’m surprised by how okay I am reading this. It’s a bit superficial for my usual tastes, but it does give me an idea of how my perspective applies to a more ‘common’ context.
