Our basic beliefs motivate us to act, feel and believe and
when others agree with oub basic beliefs, we become very fond of them and trust them. |
| |
For example, we have a childish belief that one day we
shall realise our most cherished hopes. For this reason, absurd claims, such as the
following, affect us tremendously.
- Become fantastically rich,
- master others,
- live for ever,
- have any partner you wish
|
| |
To help others. Big
business in the West, charities successfully urge us to give to a good cause. Giving
eases the guilt we feel about feeling superior and better off than others. |
| |
To be mentally strong and determined Who
doesn't want to develop a masterful personality, to be strong willed and resolute! |
| |
To be treated fairly Unfairness creates
extreme social unrest. |
| |
To be seen as restrained This is related
to being mentally strong. We believe that we should show restraint in eating, sex, and in
revealing our power and wealth. |
| |
To be cautious Showing caution, especially
in response to something new or strange makes us seem less gullible! |
Part of our nature, these motivators might not bring happiness, but they affect us
greatly.
Are you aware of how easy it is to change when you know how to? |
