It’s challenging, but is it something you want to do?
“I usually help other staff in the company, but although it’s rewarding, is this what I really want to do?” What kind of position do I really want to be in? I want to think about this,” and so we decided to consider this in our session.
Last month, my friend asked me for advice on anger management. He had been in leadership roles for many years, but he realized that he was essentially a little brother character, but he had to do it because the role came up, and before he knew it, he might have been in that position more often…
In other words, maybe it was his own anger towards himself for being false. I had introduced such an example, so the client also wondered again if her position was something she really wanted to do. She wants to be sure.
The client was also concerned that for some reason she was becoming more of a caretaker in the company, which was reducing her time for herself. Was she doing it because she was asked to, was it something she was suited to, or did she really want to do it? She was not sure even though it was her own thing.
At her previous company, she had often taken on the role of an arbitrator. As I listened to her, I felt that the reason she wanted to be a mediator was that she wanted peace to come. When I gave that feedback to the client, it seemed to be exactly that.
”Have you been doing that since you were a child?’ “, I asked her, and she said that she was the mediator in the family as well. So, she wanted ”peace in her home”.
The word “peace” reminded me that her current job was actually motivated by a “wish for peace” In her current job, she is in a position to provide an impetus for world peace through the transmission of what she has worked on to the world.
At this moment, she realized that she had always had a “wish for peace” that had remained unwavering since she was a child and even as an adult.
She wondered if this was the right thing to do. I guess the reason I thought this was because she had begun to think in her heart that she wanted to concentrate on peace activities, which had a higher dimension than ‘internal peace’. The session cleared her own axis and narrowed her focus to the world she wanted to realize.
It is difficult to get a bird’s eye view of myself, even though it is what I do. When you look at your life from a bird’s eye view with a third party while talking in this way, the dots become lines and are connected.
