Villain or saint?
(Concluded from Part 1, yesterday.)
I’ve never forgotten what psychotherapist and workshop leader John Enright used to say, that you can’t get from Victim to Hero except by going through Saint or Villain. (1)
Victims don’t get what they want and are unhappy.
Saints don’t get what they want and are happy.
Villains get what they want but are unhappy.
Heroes get what they want and are happy.
You know the moral of the story: “The way out of Villain or Saint is to accept where you are. Do it and dig it and, five minutes later, you’re a Hero.” (1)
Very clever.
As we go higher and higher in vibration the roles are being sorted out.
Villains won’t reach Hero this lifetime. Saints will reach much higher than that.
I’m feeling drawn to the latter path.

Meanwhile, the split between a private and a public self must be the most challenging to heal satisfactorily.
On the one hand, a house divided against itself cannot stand and this split is a definite division. Moreover, I’ve always valued transparency over hiding one’s cards.
On the other hand, boundaries can be a good thing at times, especially for a writer.
I’m not ready to go in the direction of full resolution of public/private self just yet – full transparency. Due diligence means looking first for unintended consequences and hidden pitfalls. Like the impact on the necessary keeping of secrets.
However, I acknowledge being drawn to the idea. It would be a definite benefit to a CEO.
I’ll need to “be with it” for a while…. And then we’ll see….
