يُقال يا أصدقائي أن «النصيحة بجمل» وأنا شخصياً لا أمانع أبداً في أن أستلم هذا الجمل لكن بشرط، أن لا يكون يعاني من نقص تغذية أو حقد دفين أو عقد نفسية ويكون ثمنه منه وفيه.
فأنا من الناس الذين لا يحبون الاستماع إلى النصائح، وإن كان ولا بد فقد أتقبّل سماعها من أحد عزيز على قلبي وتكون مغلفة «بتغليف هدايا» ومعها وردة وابتسامة حتى لو كانت صفراء.
وعلى سبيل المقال؛ نجد في مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي كثير من الناس يصنّفون أنفسهم على إنهم «مدربين تنمية بشرية» حتى ولو كان بعضهم لا يستطيع أن يكتب جملتين على بعضها دون التعثر ما بين النحو واللغة!
فيعطي الآخرين نصائح مثل: «لا تستسلم، انهض، قاوم، انجح» وهو في الأساس إنسان فاشل، يكتب كلماته هذه من على فراشه، ومن وسط بيته المدمر أسرياً، وحاله الميؤوس منه، وحاجته الفعلية إلى دورة تعلّمه كيفية التعامل مع الحياة بدون (دراما) وفلسفة غير منطقية.
فهو ممن ينطبق عليه المثل الذي يقول: «فاقد الشيء يتفلسف فيه».
والأدهى من كل هذا؛ أن من ينصحك لا يطبق ولا 1% من كلامه، وفوق ذلك يكتب تعريفاً لنفسه بأنه «مُلهم، محفز، مدرب تنمية بشرية ناجح».
ومع الأسف يحدثك عن النجاح وهو بعيد عن دربه، وعن الاستقلالية المالية وهو مديون «لشوشته»، وعن النشاط وهو يستيقظ آخر النهار، وعن الأمل وهو متشائم، وينصحك أن تطرد الطاقة السلبية من داخلك وهو قلق ومضطرب!
ويقول لك: «اتخذ قرارك» وهو إذا دخل لمقهى يحتار يطلب «كابتشينو أو لاتيه».
وأنا في هذا المقال لستُ بصدد أن أقول لكم لا تستمعوا للنصائح، بل على العكس فالنصيحة مثل «الملح» في الطعام لا بد أن نذوقها، ولكن دعني أنا من أحدد إن كنت سوف أحتسي (شوربتي) بملح أو بدون، دون أن تحشر أنفك (المكعبر) فيما أريد.
فالتنمية البشرية في الأساس هي مجموعة من الأساليب والمبادئ التي تهدف لتطوير قدرات الإنسان الذهنية، والنفسية، والسلوكية، والعملية، ولكن البعض اتخذها (كحِرفة تجارية)!
فبعض دورات التنمية البشرية مليئة (بالخرافات)، أهمها «قانون الجذب» الذي يوهمون الناس فيه بأن كل ما يتمنونه بشدة سوف يأتيهم، مثل إنسانة أعرفها تؤمن بمثل هذه الخزعبلات قالت لي في ليلة (راس سنة كبيسة):
«اكتبي أهدافك، وضعيها تحت مخدتك ونامي، الكون يشتغل»، وأخذت بنصيحتها ونمت وصحيت لقيت المخدة (طايحة) على الأرض، والكون كله يغط في سُبات عميق.
وعموماً؛ وحرصاً مني على وقتكم الثمين الذي لا بد أن تستثمروه كما يقول خبراء التنمية البشرية والتطوير والإلهام، أود أن أقول لكم: اقرؤوا هذا المقال مرتين على الأقل، وبعدها إن أراد أحدٌ منكم نُصحي، فليرسل مع نصيحته باقة ورد جميلة، ومعها كوب «قهوة مُرة» مكتوب عليها اسمي، حتى أُسمّي بالله وأشربها مع كلامه الذي لن يسمن، ولن يغنيني من جوع.
وقبل أن أودعكم سوف أنصحكم نصيحة لوجه الله؛ في وسط العتمة دائماً سوف تجدون نور، اطفوه وناموا.

It is said, my friends, that "advice is like a camel," and I personally would never mind receiving this camel, but on one condition: that it does not suffer from malnutrition, deep-seated resentment, or psychological complexes, and that its price is fair.
For I am one of those people who do not like to listen to advice, and if I must, I might accept to hear it from someone dear to my heart, wrapped "like a gift" with a flower and a smile, even if it is a yellow one.
For example, we find many people on social media who classify themselves as "human development coaches," even though some of them cannot write two coherent sentences without stumbling over grammar and language!
They give others advice like: "Don't give up, get up, resist, succeed," while they are essentially failures themselves, writing these words from their beds, amidst their broken homes, in a hopeless state, and in actual need of a course to teach them how to deal with life without (drama) and illogical philosophy.
They are like the saying goes: "The one who lacks something philosophizes about it."
What’s worse is that the one advising you doesn’t apply even 1% of what they say, and on top of that, they define themselves as "inspiring, motivating, and a successful human development coach."
Sadly, they talk to you about success while being far from their path, about financial independence while being in debt "to their nonsense," about activity while they wake up at the end of the day, about hope while they are pessimistic, and they advise you to expel negative energy from within you while they are anxious and disturbed!
They tell you: "Make your decision," while if they enter a café, they hesitate to order "cappuccino or latte."
In this article, I am not here to tell you not to listen to advice; on the contrary, advice is like "salt" in food, we must taste it. But let me decide whether I will sip my (soup) with salt or without, without you poking your (grumpy) nose into what I want.
Human development, in essence, is a set of methods and principles aimed at developing a person's mental, psychological, behavioral, and practical abilities, but some have taken it as (a commercial profession)!
Some human development courses are filled with (superstitions), the most important of which is the "law of attraction," which deceives people into believing that everything they wish for intensely will come to them, like a woman I know who believes in such nonsense and told me one New Year's Eve:
“Write your goals, put them under your pillow, and sleep; the universe is working,” and I took her advice, slept, and woke up to find the pillow (on the floor), and the whole universe deep in slumber.
In general, and out of concern for your precious time that you must invest, as human development, improvement, and inspiration experts say, I would like to tell you: read this article at least twice, and afterward, if any of you wants to advise me, please send along with your advice a beautiful bouquet of flowers, and a cup of "bitter coffee" with my name on it, so I can say "in the name of God" and drink it with your words that will neither nourish nor satisfy my hunger.
And before I bid you farewell, I will give you a piece of advice for the sake of God: in the midst of darkness, you will always find light; extinguish it and sleep.
