Which inspired
The concept of starting a pitch with the “shift in the world which we are providing them” than the usual problem.
The problem if stated would make them squirm. can scare them. By showing the shift or change, we would be enunciating

Self Discovery
A habit change that needs work on. I have a habit of getting affected by a loved one's mood and doubting if his/hers lows and highs are attributed to me. Yes, ego is playing hard ….. everything is me … i conspire every move in this universe!
A session with my therapist, made me discover that a better approach would be to disassociate myself from the situation at that very moment when the person is in deep shit and give the person time and space to process and then when moods and spirits are better have a conversation instead trying to escape from it, but burn inside. My pattern is to escape, but have some hard feeling still.
Another set of tool which was introduced to me , Use of this DRL technique
q-A ekOmirror willing
qA ekOmirroring
q3 Pause using spa!ce
q5 Sounds e.g. laughter
Qo spa!ce bk on drL base
Qv 7luff! bk on drL base
qF Picked 7luff! from base
qD Desire 7luff! to express
Here there are 2 sets of action that we can take in any situation. The first 4 are more reflective and taking space moves
and the last 4, Q0, Qv, qF, qD are more to express which could be pressing to be expressed.
Q0 — When 2 communicating people want to take a pause while communicating
Qv — This relinquishes the urge of a person to express but to be a listener. He is putting the stick/urge that he is holding down and is getting ready to be in listening mode
qF — When flluffy is with you. The fluffy designates an amphibious way of being where the energy is directed towards the expression of thought by words
qD — Here is where there is a sudden urge to emote.
q-A, qA, q3,q5 — are yet to be explored and I am yet to be reflective mode.
