    I’m way to quick to offer advise. after all, there is a problem and I can see a possible solution – LOL! I tend not to think reflectively. why? Because I am a woman of action. Go! go! Go! so much to learn:)

    I tend to offer support more often than backing away or advising. I don’t advise because that tendency was ‘beat’ out of me in my training to become a therapist. Typically, I don’t back away from someone if they share a ‘journeying reality’ with me because, I feel compelled to stay. Yet, in my offering support, I’m actually trying to do what I’ve seen others do-or I simply don’t have the time or energy to do anything other than offer support.

    I tend to not listen closely enough or expectantly. I think this also comes down to time, and distraction of my own day ahead or problems that overwhelm my own soul.

    “Don’t advise” is the most often used of the “don’ts” taught in this lesson. It may be a reflection of the professional training or instilled by upbringing: fix it, give a direct response, get to the point, and move on.

    My tendency is to not ask questions. Asking questions appears to be probing for more information than a person may be willing to provide. It seems to me that listening, allowing others to speak their mind and heart allows them to get to the core essence of their problem as well as to provide the space for them to feel heard.

    I am truly a fixer. Before a person can finish sharing with me, I am already working on a solution to make the problem go away. This is quickly followed with affirmations for comfort. I do this because I think I am wise and I am a know-it-all. I really know that both of these behaviors are not welcomed by whomever I am speaking with.

    I tend not to listen hard and attentively. I am simply in a hurry and want to hear my suggestions affirmed.
