Quote From: marcia52In business, you need more than just family history and IQ .. you need to learn to deal with people and to sacrifice and ... well, there's a whole of stuff. And the good thing is, schooling can introduce you to them and working in an area that you want to do business in.
For me it was understanding what fear is .. the naming of how it flowed within me and how I could name it when it surfaced. I found Harriet's book interesting because I have friends who experience panic attacks and it helped me to understand what they are going thru. And it helped me to see it for what it was .. the different ways it affects me and others.
You'll like Rhonda's book best than ... she gives you application and she shows you how it affects you, gives you 10 descriptives of fear, and then has you walk thru it.
It's like I go into another world, writing on-line.
I start to see my foiables but not have to do anything in particular. I panic that things don't get said and then I realise that I'm not always understood, any way.
I would say that writing about what others also find important has been theraputic. That ideas and emotions are put forward for discussion. And the discussion flows and ebbs depending on connection.
But one problem I've found in writing is in interpretation and I just keep doggardly to do this, I suppose, hoping, that in the right situation, I'll just know and don't have to keep working at it.
To change my approach, my spots, I suppose is how I personally feel about this imagery, I know you've taken on much in life and that every one can live fully.
I wonder as many religious groups for example from my perspective don't live fully and cut themselves off from the world. Yet those with troubles turn to them first and last. I think that the deprived have much in common with those that choose deprivation. ie. religious groups because going without has become essential and I wonder if fear does result in deprevation.
That without fear, would we give to others or would we only take?
That's what I'm feeling at the moment with so many things starting to become a little bit clearer. ie. I was thinking about achievement. That one can also achieve in relationships, like to fail to relate when everything is just right and no competition or age gaps or controlling etc. and still fail. That one would be encouraged by a sibling to go for those that are unavailable etc., as example of expectations makes me realise why one can't let go. Know when things are at the level they are supposed to be and still not succeed, is very humiliating. I really have a dislike for tests and learning, I think, rather than a low IQ, even though I quite willingly go to the bait, so to speak.
I guess my world is a bit tipsy turvey, but whose isn't?
Good luck in your reading, Marcia. You sound like these books have highlighted changes and possibilities but avoided stereotyping and the hee ha of shows like weight-loss etc.
