Support Vs Rescue: Lesson number four:

When someone refuses your offer of Support | Help | Assistance | Advice, how do you know if you were coming from Support or Rescue?

  • If you think: "They will find their own best way forward" You are probably supporting them
  • If you think: "They will figure it out for themselves" You are probably supporting them
  • If you feel like: "They'll never get it right without me or my help" you are probably trying to rescue them
  • If you feel upset or rejected, you are probably coming from trying to rescue them
  • If you keep trying to give Support | Help | offer Assistance | or dispense Advice, not only are you making a nuisance of yourself, but you are definitely trying to rescue them.

This is only the beginning. Get to know clarity. Email me, Mike Kennedy...
