Illuminate the Committee in Your Head – Day 22
Tomorrow we will learn more about how to re-negotiate and re-write a contract. For today, simply try to identify one contract/belief that is active in your life.
Questions to consider:
- How do you prioritize the needs of yourself with the needs of others? What are some examples? Do others seem to prioritize needs differently? How?
- Can you recognize any pattern in your life? Clues can come from any time you hear yourself saying, “Why does this always happen to me?”
- Think back to a time in childhood when you did not get what you wanted? What were the current messages you did get about HOW to get what you want?
Contracts often look like logical cause and effect scenarios, beliefs, or even value statements. Once you have identified one, explore it. What is the belief behind it? What is the value it represents? What circumstances surround it? You will be armed with information for a good negotiation after this exploration.
