At Solving Conflicts,
self-justifying does not fit into our system. It does not matter if
someone else has worse self-conflicts than you do. It does not matter
who else shares the blame.
This is a place where you will learn about
you. This is a place where you will discover your need for mercy
is far greater than your need to be merciful. This is a place where
you will see what character traits influence you in the choices you
make.
The good news for
you is that no one else will ever know your self-conflicts. They will
never know specifically what they are or whether you are making progress
in overcoming them.
The bad news for you is that no one else
will ever know your self-conflicts. They will never know specifically what
they are or whether you are making progress in overcoming them.
That is
both the good news and the bad news!
You see, you can fool most everyone in your
life if you really want to. You an isolate yourself, and no one will
ever know. The issue is not whether others know or not. The issue
is the fact that you already know! You already
know what those self-conflicts are. The fact that you already know
means you have already been caught!
Are you ready to be honest with your own self about
them? Are you ready to win the war of self-conflict? The choice is
yours to make. Remember, the only choice you need to worry about is
the choice you make next. So far, your next choice is the only one
you have.
Solving Conflicts is
a system for you to keep track of your own self in a very private
way. You will be able to take a close look at yourself. A very close look! You may be tempted to think that your very best friend told us secrets about you that no one else ever knew, but that is not the case. So don't worry. This system is all computer generated, and your privacy is assured. We will
help you to uncover your true character strengths. We will provide
suggestions concerning how to make improvements ...one
good choice at a time!
