ATTITUDE

David Leonhardt

My advice to you is to develop paranoia. Positive paranoia. You have every reason to be paranoid. There are people all around you scheming and plotting to make you.

...happy.

People who, at a drop of a hat, would think nothing of doing some awfully nice deed. People who might smile at you or even be helpful. My advice is to trust no-one. Suspect everyone. Suspect everyone of wanting to make you happy.

You will start to see the world in a different light. You will start to see the world as a more positive place.

But why trust me? Try it for yourself. After all, I might be plotting to make you happy, too.
