(THE OSTRICH COMPLEX A PERSONALIZED PLAN OF ACTION FOR OVE...)
THE OSTRICH COMPLEX A PERSONALIZED PLAN OF ACTION FOR OVERCOMING THE FEARS THAT HOLD YOU BACK • Do you avoid confrontations because you fear the other person may not love you if you disagree? • Do you find yourself putting a small task off until tomorrow...and tomorrow...and tomorrow - only to find that it has become a major obstacle by the time you tackle it? • Do you find it difficult to forgive and forget, storing up things that bother you rather than dealing with them as you would like to? • Do you often find yourself at work pilling up memos and telephone calls that need to be answered because you "just can't find the time" to handle each one as it comes up? • Do you feel compelled to do even small jobs "just right" or refuse to attempt them at all - until they become huge, emotionally draining final tasks? If you have answered yes to any of these questions, you have a lot of company. These situations - and these reactions - are traps for all of us at one time or another. When faced with unpleasant, stressful demands, we often find ourselves burying our heads alongside the ostrich.
