Five chairs- five choices

Watch the first part of the video. Work in pairs. Discuss the questions: Why is Louise so upset in the very beginning of the meeting with a twenty-year old girl, a daughter of her partner? Why does she ask: “What is wrong with this generation?” Have you ever experienced the same in your life? Share the story with your partner. What was your reaction? How does Louise call the first chair, the first choice?

Watch the second part of the video and discuss the following ideas We are making choices about the behaviors that we bring into the world. What can we do at a practical level to help us be more conscious about our behaviors?

Attack, blame, complain, gossip, judge Can you think of a real life story Why does Louse’s brother pose the following question to Louise: Do you want to be in relationship with your mother or do you want to be right? Whom does the quotation belong to- The more we judge people, the less time we have to love them.

They have got an attention span of a fruit fly. I really would love to connect to her. That was a close shave, I could have really spoilt that. She was there multitasking in her digital way. She was enhancing our reality. The choices that we make have a direct impact on the conversations that we have, the relationships that we form and the quality of our lives in general. I have looked on my mothers’ exaggeration as a form of abundance. We all suffer from self doubt. We put our egos on the backburner in this chair. We are stepping into somebody else’s shoes. When you want to snap at your children, argue with your partner or punish someone at work. When someone presses one of your red buttons, just think.
