If your drive is to be perfect: Your values are those of achievement, autonomy, success and being right. You will be purposeful, moral and have very high standards. You will tend to be task orientated and extremely logical. You will be very good at seeing the best way of achieving success or completion of a task. Your stress is caused by anything which indicates a loss of control, over emotionalism from others and a failure to achieve goals. Your stress behaviour is that you will become more and more single-minded, seeing only your own point of view. You may become arrgant and aggressive in arguments and unable to take account of other peoples� different views. You will be focused on the goal and so may discount the people around. The drivers you have picked up are those of �Don�t make mistakes�, �Don�t take risks�. Your ways of reducing patterns of stress in yourself are: � Be willing to appreciate different values held by other people rather than just seeing your own as valuable. � When under stress the tendency is to treat everything as important and so energy is poured into issues that are in themselves not the most important at that time. So for you prioritising is vital. � Become more conscious of your tendency to become self-righteous and the tendency to treat others in a parental manner. � Make a point of communicating your feelings. � Be willing to laugh at yourself. |
