Finding Your Own Best Answers

How many of us can remember a time when there was not at least one person trying to influence how we act, feel, or even believe? If you, like me, were brought up in an authoritarian household, your own observations often appeared the Blue Coat BCCPSA practice test complete opposite of those in authority in the family. When talking to others about this part of my childhood, I often say, "It was like him telling me the sky was red, when I could see it was blue. I learned just to shut up, because I was completely confused about what I thought I saw."
A lifetime of this, or a childhood with this, leads some of us to be completely unsure not only of our observations, but of what we believe. Can we believe what we see/feel? Or should we first check out the landscape Blue Coat BCCPSP practice test and see how others think we should see/feel?
Having lived decades of trying to please others and not knowing who I really was, I finally found community mediation and became a mediator myself. But first I had to learn the beauty of finding my own best answers, and of how others of like mind could help me do so. No longer did I have to get my feelings checked out so to speak by someone in authority. I could evaluate my beliefs and embrace them.
As I became a mediator I read books not only on the process of mediation, but on what the goal is in the process. For me, it meant learning that there are positions, and there are interests. It meant learning that if one can get beyond the position (the sky is red) to the interest (I have to be right) then one can help oneself and then others in getting to the root of a struggle and learn what one really wants.
I use the idea of finding ones own best answers in many ways, including on the job. When my staff comes to me with a problem, they often leave my office with an absolute buy-in to the solution, because instead of telling them what to do, I coach them to help figure it out themselves. This doesn't always work, of course, but it works more often than not.
The next time you find yourself in a difference of opinion - either inside of yourself or with another person, ask - "What is QQ0-300 my position? What is my interest?" And if you can, find out the same from the other. You may be surprised at how easy it is to come to your own best answer when you know what the issue really is.
