Items related to Excess Baggage: Discover Which Ruling Passion is Weighing...
The five most common ways people make their lives harder for themselves are: the need to be right, to feel superior, to create drama, to dread rejection, to hold onto anger. Excess baggage is the psychological baggage that people carry around with them. People are often unaware of their own baggage, although it is blindingly obvious to others. Everyone is dominated by one of five ruling passions - control, attachment, self-esteem, security, justice - which govern reactions, speech, behaviour, expectations, dreams, loves and hates. They are essentially "dysfunctional" pieces of personality which cause problems when allowed to get out of hand. This book examines the ins and outs of working out what the reader's ruling passion is, seeing how it affects life and relationships, understanding it, and then improving life by changing behaviour. The personality needn't be changed - just minimize the effect of it's excess baggage.
