Time to clear the air

Reading my post Constructive Criticism and it's comments has been very insightful. It proves that I'm not the only one who jumps to conclusions and I admit, I do.

I wrote that post with a few things in my mind. One was the previous one, BC 32, where someone did try to start a fight out of an opinion. Perhaps thinking that a bad review of a release means a bad impact on the programme or on the instructors teaching it. It's a bad release, it happens. There are good releases, the programme is not popular for no reason. But that doesn't mean we CAN'T chose NOT to go for this release. Tak kan die, die also must do combat?

When I wrote Constructive Criticism, I was writing about people in general. To assume that I only write posts gym related ( or instructor related) is wrong. I do have a life outside the gym.
I actually wrote that piece with everyone in mind, the people I work with, the people who come to me for consultation and yes, the people I meet in the gym. To say I aimed it specifically at any instructor, let alone one particular instructor is wrong. Seriously, no instructors were badgered in the making of this post. Read it again...carefully, slowly and try to read it without any preconceived notions.

The labelling under gym rant was an error. When you type "g" under "labels", it automatically comes up with the last word used under "labels". It's a blogger publishing thing. I hit the button before I realised, but I let it be, since it was, in a way gym related.

Perhaps it drew a lot of attention because "anonymous" decided to tie it and the one on BC 32 to a post many months ago about an instructor. BC 32 and Constructive Criticism have nothing to do with that post. To assume and jump to the wrong conclusions merely reflect a rash mind, but to comment negatively, repeatedly, reflects an unthinking mind. I let the comments section run, and kept on saying it was my post, my blog, hence my right, because it is.

Until I realised someone was taking this way too personally to be just about BC 32 and my opinions on criticisms. After I realised that, I just let you continue assuming what ever you want to assume, too tired to argue with someone so hell bent on their way of thinking. You must be a lawyer, and I suppose a good one.Plus, it's just interesting to see how people think, so I let it be lah.

In the end, most people got it...I didn't write about anyone in particular at all.
So anonymous, if you still want take excerpts from this post or the previous posts or posts done in the stone age and use it against me...well, still jumping I guess.

This post, just in case, is for those of you who silently read and just wonder what the hell its all about?
