Crisis, Conflict & Changes

Have you undergone a crisis lately? Or have your relationship with your love ones shaken to its foundation? What changes in your life and family or career has taken place that leaves you grasping as if where for dear breath?

Psychologist studied why other people survived a crisis while others experiencing the same crisis emerge as em­bittered, hurting human beings and has a very bleak view of the future. The studies show that survivors are those who have;

· Taken care of their bodies along the way
· Found ways to express and manage intense and often painful feelings
· Have triumph over the crisis mentally
· Have made concrete changes in their behavior that allow them to live a new and
change world

Taking path towards growth means paying attention to each of these four major areas of life; PHYSICAL, SPIRITUAL, EMOTIONAL & MENTAL and BEHAVIORAL.

In the last 20 years, commercialism has become the dominant influence in our society. As such, commercialism has infiltrated every aspect of our lives — including the hearts and minds of our children. For many, it is an un­settling force. The wild competitiveness of busi­ness today compels individuals to be constantly available for customers and colleagues, inevita­bly reducing the time and energy they can de­vote to their kids. Many parents fear that their children may be paying the price for their success. Is that price too high?

In the November 2001 Harvard Business Re­view DIFFERENT VOICE, The Inner Life of Execu­tive Kids, Child psychoanalyst Robert Coles, a critic of the way children are raised today, surprizingly had expressed optimism because of our children's extraordinary adaptability and ingenuity. "Our children are wonderfully aware and awake," Coles says. "If only we'd stop and lis­ten to consider the implications to the kids' talk of our sons and daughters, we might learn some­thing very important about them and about our­selves."
