Are you comfortable with yourself?
Are you
comfortable with yourself?
Yes, I am. Why not?
Ok, then tell me, when
do you feel good to be with you?
Many times.
Will you recall and
share those moments…please../
umh…. Not able to recall so aptly… but many
Ok… just try to tell
me when you were not comfortable with you or not happy with you?
Oh.. so simple…now
that you are asking so not feeling good/ not comfortable or when I am not able
to do what I want to do or in the manner in which I want it to be done etc.
Umh….will you
illustrate why?
I want to do what I
want and the way I want…so not comfortable…
But why. Feeling
uncomfortable?
I am not in the frame
of acceptance it comes, so it stresses me as it compels me to think, feel, act
what I did not want.
Is it always necessary
for what you want, that only happens?
I don’t think so, but
still, I always wish that to happen
Why?
To feel good. It
pampers my ego…I feel empowered…so
So?
I cannot explain, but
it is winning feeling
Ok, do you think
something which is not happening the way you want, you work on it, and you feel
fine. any such experience…
Yes, it could, but it
takes long…I have formed a habit to seek pleasure immediately, not like to wait
for it.
Ok, if I ask, after
working on the problem and when you achieve, how do you feel?
Good, better
Is there a difference
between the immediate gratification and achieved or fulfilling the wish with
efforts?
Of course, they later
give more satisfaction or sense of fulfilment than the previous one
That means you are
more satisfied and happy when you achieve the task, more winning feeling
Yes, it can be said
like this
Will you like to
summarize what we discussed…?
Yes, I am not comfortable when certain unexpected
thing come which is not my choice but I think if I take this as a challenge and
try to solve then I will get sense of fulfilling and comfort …it is my
winning….i think it is greater…not to run away from the problems…problems are
for solving…rather it is more challenging and adventurous. It will help me to
move on but most of the things which is happening the way I wish, may give
immediate gratification but it lose its charm of sense of achieving something..
it might be uncomfortable for some time but in long run helps to develop
tolerance, calmness, resistance, composedness. I start learn to believe in
myself and my strength and also trust in myself that I can…. possibly all this.
Ahha…. You have
summarized all spoken and also what you went through in the form of
reflections. Now I think we can start talking on the topic which we began with.
Making yourself comfortable with yourself
How will you make
comfortable yourself with you?
When I will feel happy
with myself ..
When will you feel
happy?
When I will not expect everything the way I want, I will learn to accept
the things as it is and then work on it with patience, trusting on my abilities
and having confidence that I will solve the situation get the things the way
now I want …..
Good.
Any other thing to
make yourself comfortable……
1. Trust in self
2. Faith in self
3. Unconditional acceptance of self
4. Accept GIVENS as GIVENS; once you accept it, the
sky is the limit for development
5. I have the power to manage my self
6. I have courage, tolerance and confidence to
solve any problem or situation I am not comfortable with.
7. Any problem has a solution .. trust it
8. Discomfort leads to comfort when I want, I can
and I will
9. Everything is not like fast food .. always
ready to consume, but some time in low fume the food is cooked which preserve
nutrients, native fragrance and taste
For all
I need to be a friend to me…
I need to love my self
I need to trust myself
I need to feel worthy of myself…
Then NOBODY can ever
make me uncomfortable with myself.
