In the previous entry,The Best Way To Deal With A Bad Boss, we were beginning to discuss the things that make up our ability to deal with a bad boss like our driving needs, communication styles (which we’ll get into shortly) and whether or not we’re a Master or a Victim. All these issues need to be considered before we can best handle, deal with, stomache, work with a boss who’s less than ideal. We covered driving needs and maintain that one must remain detached from the process that satisfies those needs (intimacy, control, achievement, passion, love, etc.). We also suggested that based on intuition and faith, a person must sincerely choose or give the needs they want met to either themselves or to someone else in order for them to receive a satisfactory result. It sounds almost contradictory: give yourself what you need? Absolutely! A self-actualized person (a successful person) knows how to meet their own needs - consciously or unconsciously. They are a Master of their life. But what if we’re not Masters, rather we’re Victims. What if we resist taking responsibility for the results we get? Let’s talk about this.
Concepts we will discuss here shortly that will help you understand the results, situations you find yourself in and decide whether or not you want to remain a Victim or you’re going to Master your life.
We will be discussing:
• Accountability
• Responsibility
• Ineffective Attitudes, Behaviours and Emotions (& Your Rewards)
• The Victim Effect
• Communication Styles
Come back soon.
