Office politics is NOT optional? Part I

This morning, as I was reading someone's blog, but, I shall reserved the identity. But, I am going to quote some very inspiring sentences out.

Whether you liked it or not, we all do politics. From the moment we start socializing and making friends in kindergarden, we are already in politics. But we don't call it that, cause politics is a dirty word.

How true. Without us knowing it, we are all politicians. :D People always say, we must always be ourselves, shouldn't pretend to be something that we are not. But give some thoughts about it, if we are really being who we are, how many will like us? Truth is, other than our own family or really really close people, there is no one else in the world that truly likes who we are. Life is just a game, you are bound to lose when you don't do the dirty tricks.

Even when we mingling around our friends, don't we tend to please others as well? Face it. This is something that we ALL do, only varies by degree. Some are big time ass lickers, some are just minor lickers. Some people will say, why should we live to please people? If you are this type, congratulations. You just just set up your own grave. Face it man, who doesn't like to be pleased?

Well, only survival for the fittest.
