Chapter Nine
Solving Conflicts 102: The Basics!
(A mini-course)
-
First, think
about the genuine trait of Honesty:
-
IF you score high on Honesty, that is
a good thing.
-
F you score low on Honesty, that could
mean that you lack Honesty.
-
IF you lack in Honesty, you may have the
opposite of that or Dishonesty
You will be graded on 42 different genuine traits
to see if you have these
...or lack these traits.
-
Second, you
may be thinking that scoring high on a trait is always a good thing.
You may be thinking that scoring low on a trait is always a bad
thing. Neither is true in every case, as you will see:
-
Solving
Conflicts does not only measure whether
you have or lack a genuine trait.
-
The Solving Conflicts system is
based upon the concept that we often misuse our genuine traits
regardless of our scores on them.
-
When we misuse our genuine traits, they become
counterfeit traits.
-
Each of the 42 genuine traits has an average
of three counterfeit traits.
-
These occur when we misuse, over-use,
improperly use, or ineffectively use the genuine traits.
If you ever forget what turns a genuine trait into
a counterfeit trait, remember these two rules:
Rule #1: Counterfeit
traits always cause harm, injury,
or insult to others and conflict will be the result.
Rule
#2: (See rule #1)
Example A: When
we misuse Honesty to a fault, it does not become Dishonesty.
When Honesty is used to a fault, people get hurt.
Honesty, when used to a fault, turns into Outspokenness, Bluntness, Brutality, or
Indiscretion. Do not worry; the meanings will become clear
as you continue.
Example B: When
you use Fair-mindedness to a fault, it does not become Unfair-mindedness.
When fair-mindedness is used to a fault, people
get hurt. Fair-mindedness, when used to a fault, turns into Indecisive,
Indiscriminate, and Undiscerning. Again, do not worry! The
words and the meanings will become clear as you continue. Each
will be explained in detail.
All 42 genuine traits can be misused to a fault.
Solving Conflicts will measure you
for genuine traits that you misuse as counterfeit traits.
Please Note: If all of
this seems a bit unclear to you right now, please, do not be too
concerned about it. Little by little, it will all become clear to
you as you continue.
