Two kinds of care

We are surrounded by two kinds of people who care. One type constantly try to see all the negative things around them and not to waste any chance of pointing them to you. Sometimes they even go so far as to offer a solution. "I always tell others the truth", they say. They usually have a very low self-esteem and try to prove their worth by criticizing and diminishing others.

The people of the second type also care but rarely say negative things. Instead, you can be sure they will fix the problem themselves without blaming others. They say "thank you for the privilege to fix this".

The first type don't have any friends while the second type are loved by many people around them.

The first type take credit when it's working and give blame when it's not. The people of the second type are just the opposite - they give credit when it's working and take blame when it's not.

It's the recipe to become indispensable.
