You know catman, that is exactly the conclusion I've come to. I've tried talking to people, who have many personal problems, about subs and they all seem to make up excuses as to why they shouldn't or don't want to do them. Some of them very, very stupid reasons in my opinion. Its interesting that I just recently started reading the Alpha 2.0 book and the excuses he outlines that people use to justify not being happy are pretty much exactly the excuses people use when I tell them about Subs:
"Problems make you stronger.They Build character"
"Walking around happy all the time means you're not considering all the pain and suffering in the world"
"You need bad feelings to know what good feelings are. If you never feel bad, you won't appreciate it when you feel good"
The last one I listed was actually one I got told verbatim by a woman I tried to get to use subs because shes pretty much had a crappy life up until now. Apparently, it isn't time for her to feel "good feelings" yet??? Another person told me, to paraphrase, that they are just fine with being on their anti-depressants. Honestly, just like you, I've pretty much given up on telling others. It seems to be just a waste of time for the most part. People rather "earn" their ideal life by going through a lot of pain instead pressing play every night and have their actions towards that ideal life be more automatic.
