Yeah, that's all part of the technique; breaking down the issue, understanding why you're having negative emotional reactions to it, and deciding whether the problem is your emotional reaction (in which case, change that), or the outer-world situation (in which case, figure out the steps needed to change the situation).
It's taken a while to learn it (indeed I'm still learning it), but it's powerful the more it starts to click.
- martinraag 8y agoThat sounds very interesting. Would you happen to have any pointers (i.e. books, links etc.) for anyone interested in learning more?
- tomhoward 8y agoNot really any books - I think I'm going to have to write one! My approach comes from a variety of different sources - mostly in-person coaching from practitioners. But you're welcome to email me (address in profile) and I can send you some links and suggestions.
