To virtually eliminate mindless watching of television, I’ve been spending my off time with reading light, inspirational books and some include;
– The Alchemist by Paulo Coelo
– The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma
– The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield
I read all of these books years ago and when I’m not reading professional reading, I like to turn to these kinds of books to end my day. They all remind me of the Hardy Boy’s mysteries that I used to read when I was a boy.
If you are getting bent out of shape because you would term these books as New Age, I’ve also read;
– The Path by Laurie Beth Jones
– Jesus CEO by Laurie Beth Jones
In fact, as I reflect, I’ve read just about all of the books by all of these authors.
I read The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield back when it was published in 1994 and I really enjoyed it so I picked up again.
The 6th Insight is about Control Dramas and I can see now that Control Dramas are triggered by unresolved Unmet Needs.
Control Dramas block our ability to fully experience the best that we can be.
We are all affected by how we were brought up and our unhealthy ego’s tend to lean towards one or two of the control dramas that we experienced through our parents.
Control Dramas are the way that the Unhealthy Ego Mind competes for and restores it’s addiction to negative energy.
The four Control Dramas that Redfield talks about are;
1. Intimidators steal energy from others by threat.
2. Interrogators steal energy by judging and questioning.
3. Aloof people attract attention and energy to themselves by playing coy.
4. Poor Me’s drain energy and make people feel guilty and responsible for them.
Ask yourself which of the above family dynamics created your Control Dramas?
By answering this question YOU become aware of the unconscious Dysfunctional Ego Mind’s games that are in play to gain energy from others.
The unconscious Dysfunctional Ego Mind is addicted to negative energy and this is the way that it replenishes it’s reserves of negative energy.
Note! 🙂 Your unconscious Dysfunctional Ego Mind will only be able to play the game of gaining energy from others if the other person is hypnotized and addicted to negative energy by their unconscious Dysfunctional Ego Mind. If they are aware then they will not be consumed by your unconscious Dysfunctional Ego Mind.
Ever hear the expression “They are so far behind they think that they are first”. Better wake up because many people are.
