Dealing with Button Pushers from Hell

[Guest guest]

A couple days ago I got into a heated discussion with someone I've

known (a.k.a. the " button pusher " from hell) for a long, long time.

 

Without going into the details of the discussion, this person was

attempting to make me feel guilty.

 

This time I noticed something quite different than what usually

occurs between this person and me though.

 

In the past I would feel drained and frustrated after having a

conversation with them after only a short time. This time, to my

surprise, an intense discussion that would have carried on for a long

time, settled down quickly and we had a meeting of minds!

 

This really struck me, and I asked myself. Wow! What just happened

here? What was the difference this time?

 

Could it be because of the drills I've been doing, and paying

attention to what's happening to my energies in my interactions with

people? Using an energy shield to protect myself and keep my energy

from being sucked away by " energy thieves " who I recognize easily now?

 

Could it be that chunking up in a discussion in order to reach an

agreement actually does work?

 

And had I just put it all to the test while under pressure a couple

days ago with the " button pusher from hell " ...and it all flowed, and

it all seemed like second nature?

 

Maybe just one little milestone along the road of learning how to Get

Shit Done..but what potential it indicates we all have.....
