Memaknai sebuah tanggung jawab, versi dahlan iskan, Dirut PLN

Sebuah artikel menarik dari milis tetangga, semoga bermanfaat.

Dahlan Iskan: Dua Tangis dan Ribuan Tawa
Minggu lalu genap enam bulan saya menjadi CEO PLN. Ada yang bilang ''baru'' enam bulan. Ada yang bilang ''sudah'' enam bulan.

Betapa relatifnya waktu...

Selama enam bulan itu, saya dua kali sakit perut serius. Setengah hari saya tidak bisa bekerja, kecuali hanya tidur lemas di bilik di belakang ruang kerja Dirut PLN.

Sebenarnya, saya harus mewaspadai sakit perut seperti itu melebihi sakit lainnya. Sebab, kata dokter, sakit perut merupakan tanda awal mulai bermasalahnya transplantasi hati yang saya lakukan tiga tahun lalu. Mungkin saja itu merupakan tanda awal bahwa hatinya orang lain yang sekarang saya pakai ini mulai ditolak oleh sistem tubuh saya. Begitulah kata dokter.

From DISNEY we Learned

Why was Snow White given an apple with poison?
To show that not all people are as kind as what they pretend to be.

Why did Cinderella have to run away when the clock stroke midnight?
To remind us that everything has limitations even dreams.

Why did Ariel decide to exchange her fins with feet?
To show that anyone is willing to give up anything just to be happy.

Why did Beauty get in love with the Beast?
To show us that Beauty is NOT everything , we have to look at the
Personality 1st :D

Parts therapy in action by Katherine Zimmerman

We all have parts. I’m not referring to body parts here but parts of our personality. Have you ever said to someone, “a part of me really wants to take that new job but another part is afraid to make the change?” Or, “a part of me really wants to lose weight but another part says that it’s just too much work.” This is a normal occurrence because we all have parts of our personality that have split off and keep us struggling to make decisions. Just as with any team effort, life flows more smoothly when our parts are working together. In the following case history, Renee brings several parts into agreement creating a life that feels lighter and easier.

Renee has been working on weight reduction in previous sessions so we began by discussing her progress. At the time of her first session she weighed 385 pounds. Before she started losing weight she used hypnotherapy to regain a sense of control, improve self confidence, release judgments of herself and others, she became more comfortable with who she is and she relates to others more easily. Renee also learned that she had choices and released some old guilt.

Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution: Introducing Parts Therapy

Inner conflict is a common human affliction. Consider the smoker who knows cigarettes are a health hazard, but who, nevertheless, cannot kick the habit. Consider the person who wants to lose weight, yet can't resist fattening foods. It's not only the bad habits and addictions that plague us. There are illogical fears and compulsions, and the ethical and moral dilemmas that harangue the conscience and keep us awake at night. These are the troubles that clients often bring to psychotherapy.

Roy Hunter provides an approach to inner conflict in his new book, Hypnosis for Inner Conflict Resolution. The book describes the background, principles and methods for conducting client-centered parts therapy in the context of clinical hypnosis. Parts therapy consists of a set of therapeutic maneuvers for reconciling the conflicting parts of a client's personality. Parts therapy is based on the concept that the personality is composed of various parts; aspects of the subconscious mind, each with its own respective function. When two parts clash, the angst is palpable.
