________________ 180 Unlimited Horizons We experience this type of dissatisfaction because we do (or did) not allow OTHERS to reach the satisfaction they desire, or obstruct(ed) their endeavors. It's our attitude of obstruction - however subtle it may be - that causes this negative mood within us. When we block others, we always also block ourselves in a subliminal way. By giving up this meddling and by allowing others to unfold their life in their very own fashion we neutralize this challenge. Now it may happen that after changing our attitude, we do not feel an effect. This is caused by a subconscious reluctance to let go all - even the subtlest - control of others' lives. - We know that we have neutralized this challenge when our actions start bringing us the longed for satisfaction (again). Variations Damaging dissatisfaction may also manifest as • an attempt to get attention. - We want to attract others' energy (i.e. attention) because we do not generate enough on our own. Yet this is highly counterproductive. Complaining is so unattractive that others would not want to share this dull emotion, - and start avoiding us. It works exactly the other way round: - We most likely get more attention when we stop showing dissatisfaction, and contribute a positive attitude. an attempt to show 'strength' and 'superiority'. - By being belligerent, dissatisfied, quarrelsome, difficult we want to demonstrate how strong we are. Yet what really happens is this: - We pull others down instead of reaching a HIGHER (stronger) level of energy.
