Question

'Mind your own business'. So, is it a good policy to concentrate on your own and forget about others ?

Answer 1

No, you should investigate other's lives in detail in order to collect blackmail material.

Answer 2

Yes and No

See, I think there is a fine line between hospitality, emotional support and some nosy little punk sticking his/her antennas where they don’t belong. Okay so there are people who sit comfortably in misery who will never ask for help because there present or past resources haven’t been of much help, which probably caused some distrust (with people), the feeling of hopelessness, (and I’m assuming this true) you know, all that depressing insecurity stuff that I’d rather not mention; it’s so technique and obvious that it’s a bore. Oh yeah, or they might really be on the private side of things. I would hate to become a counselor, psychiatrist, nurse or a doctor and view every one as sick individuals; I mean, even though we are surrounded by lunatics, not every creature is one. The reason I say this is because I have a friend who is working in the great field of hospitality in addition to her crazed belief in Christianity; very nice women. I can trust her, but I’ve noticed she has become so obsessed in helping others that she forgets to be a regular friend, almost like the majority of people I know who choose those fields.

I wonder if that’s only me; does every one find things which are so obvious boring because a pinch of thinking is only needed? Blah…..

I wouldn’t necessarily agree with forgetting about others; I think we can trust and leave that up to the people who get so fixated in there fields of hospitality, the same ones who forget to stop for second, just stop for a second, just stop

trying to fix everyone for one second.

What is forgetting about other's?

Answer 3

i think best would be to mind your own business

Answer 4

YES...IT funny coz when ever you ask or show interest in certain peoples life just to be friendly they;re like that...so its just like ok i won't bother next time stupid fuckz

Answer 5

you cant be minding your own business all the time. it depends on the place and situation.

good example for minding our own business is "corruption".if we would have raised our voice it wouldn't have grown this far.

we people are look for fast and easy ways to get our things done.

Answer 6

No it is not. Each man has a duty to his family, to his race and to wider humanity (in that hierarchical order).

This is because these entities represent (increasingly dissipated) stores of his genes, begetting a genetic interest to him in which, if he is to lead an adaptive life, he must invest his time and effort.

Answer 7

It is a good policy to mind ones own business. As we  follow our duties , it is also required to observe, learn and help  others if necessary in their work.

But one should make it a point not to interfere in others personal matters and advice them unless it is asked for.

Answer 8

It means just because you can smell the roses,

that doesn't give you the right to pluck them,

from anothers garden. There's an old joke that

lends itself very nicely and i quote " what's the

best way to keep from getting your nose broken

in three places? stay out of them three places "

peace, instead of pieces . . .

Answer 9

In general, I think it's best to keep your opinions about someone else's business to yourself unless asked.  Exceptions might be in the case of a dear, close friend or family member who is in dire need of a reality check.

Answer 10

To a certain extend it is good.It will help you to be away from troubles

But if there is no problem in our life then...what is the meaning of happiness?

Answer 11

Then this Q & A forum be closed. Answering others, is in no wsy minding our own business. It is minding for others.  

Answer 12

you sure must be a loner to come up w/ this one. everybody needs everybody else. you must be a hermit. true, other people can get you down but i'm a better person for caring. no matter how annoying some people can be sometimes.

Answer 13

I think that it depends on who the person is and what the situation is. If it is a really good friend or family member and you feel you can help them I would voice my opinion. If it is a stranger I think it is best to mind your business. Unless you see a parent beating their child, which I have in the mall once and I did say something. it was not a tap on the butt, they were beating the heck out of them so I felt the need to step in.
