Synopsis
The key to having fulfilling relationships, experiencing satisfying work life, being authentic, confident, and comfortable with yourself is simple, says Dr Gail Saltz. The stories we told ourselves as children to make sense of the world around us are the cause of most of our adult problems. Becoming Real illustrates how to find those stories and rewrite them so that we can be free of the past, and start down the road to taking control, being stronger, and having the best relationships of our lives. Emotional pain and difficulty mean that the story you told yourself as a child about how you should be and about who you are isn't working any more. It's a story that looks like the truth; unfortunately it's not the truth but these myths are endlessly maintained by us alone. You'll know a story is holding you back if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms: having outbursts of anger out of proportion to the cause; repeating behaviours you don't like in spite of your determination never to repeat them; repeatedly dating or marrying the wrong person; and never being happy with your work.
Becoming Real demonstrates how to recognise and defeat the stories that keep us from being happy and prevent us from having fulfilling relationships in our personal lives and at work."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
