17Insincere Traits From People Who
Claim To Be Sincere
1
1People who are there for all the FREE stuff,
yet never return the favor - they want to, they're going to… someday
2
2Someone who keeps canceling last minute with the wildest excuses i.e. the car blew
up, the dog has a fever, an aunt from India just arrived
3
3The guy who says he is going to do you a big favor
and then proceeds to remind you on occasion that he doesn't have to do it but he wants to
4
4The person who needs you to do something for them for FREE
and they'll pay you when their
ship comes in or they win the
lottery
5
5The guy who has a product the world can't live without
and you'll get paid back when the big money
comes in
6
6They seem sincere, you go out on a limb
and do the favor understanding that
they have investors who are dropping a wad of cash - you wait for what seems forever - it never comes
7
7People who say 'To tell you the truth' repeatedly as if they're lying the rest of the time and now they
need to point out that this time it’s
the real truth
8
“Sincerity is the fulfillment of our own nature, and to arrive at it we
need only follow our own true Self.Sincerity is the beginning and
end of existence; without it, nothing can endure.
Therefore the mature person values sincerity above all things.”
― Tzu-ssu
9
8Those who have an excuse for everything.
It's never their fault - the rest of the world keeps getting in their way
10
9The guy who wants to do great
things with you when
you call him,
but don't count on him calling you
11
10People who always let your calls go
to voicemail,
they're always too busy but they expect you to answer their calls
12
11The guy or gal who delivers their bad news in a text.
They don't want to call you because they can't live up to the truth
13
12Those people who rely strictly on email to
communicate with you.
They don't want eye to eye contact, they prefer
not to be exposed
14
13People who seem uncomfortable with
looking into your eyes,
they fidget with anything in sight to avoid a direct and truthful conversation
15
“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”
― John F. Kennedy
16
14People who screw up and don't apologize.
They know you know, but they
don't want to fess up!
They see it as a weakness, not a strength
17
15Someone that is too
busy is someone
who is not interested. We all make time for
the things that are important to us
18
16The lady who cancels a
meeting, and another, and
another, always with good excuses -
is probably not worth your time
anyway
19
17The person who calls you only when they need something.
They start by catching up as if they really care and then…. boom

“Sincerity - if you can fake that, you've got it made.”
― George Burns
“Don't claim you're sincere, just be it.”
― Eva Heller
“Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.”
― Charles Spurgeon

Brink Thinking is centered around making the irrational rational. Many of the best inventions and ideas that have impacted society today seemed irrational until a Brink Thinker thought beyond the absurd. Imagination
helps provide meaning to experience and understanding to knowledge; it is a fundamental faculty through which people make sense of the world.
Society benefits when imagination and absurdity collide.
