Hi Coach. Your post is too long for me to effectively quote here so
I’m going to try to address the coaching raised and if confusing let
me know.
As for “broad and fuzzy” I clearly understand your response.
As for anxiety vs. fear, the “ouch” and the brick (one and the same in
this case) to which I referred came from being “corrected” by your
suggestion that what I might be experiencing was fear rather than
anxiety. I suspect this is a Dictator’s reaction just like my
stoicism of not telling you of the “ouch” initially. I often hold
back but until now had not seen that holding back could be an aspect
of Dictator.
I understand you to be saying than even though two Warriors are
authentically engaged, score may arise on their boards but if they
remain unaffected by the score playing it off their board they will
continue to interact authentically. My misunderstanding came from the
notion that Warriors would not have score on their boards if the were
Warriors. This notion makes Warriors non-human. This is the source of
the “intellectual” phrase you didn’t understand. ((I may be terse
here to avoid further expose’ of Dictator.))
Eddie you’re quite perceptive. I apologize to you and to Coach for
dis’ing him. I suspect it’s my “sly” Dictator at work. Another
aspect of Personality through which I’ve slept.
Sincerely and looking for cheerfulness, Student John
