discovering your own values and developing congruent attitudes
On the road from slavery to freedom you have to discover your own individual values and develop attitudes which are congruent with your values.
Within the framework of a coaching session they guidees are guided to discover their own scales of individual values rather than blindly follow the values they inherited from their parents or copied from their peers or the examples and models presented to them by the more or less directly manipulative media.
The tool to develop congruent attitudes is the same old think-tool we have rediscovered: reflection.
We know that attitudes do not automatically result in congruent actions but they are a necessary and very important element on the way from thinking to acting. Scientific research has shown that people are ready to act in a way which is in contradiction with their attitudes if they believe that the action serves their immediate short term interests. (See in: Aronson: The Social Animal).
So the guidees are encouraged and trained to sharpen their think-tools and analyze their beliefs.
