TE POWER AND CONTROL

(Click on picture to magnify.)


POWER AND CONTROL:  You expect to control others.  Since you are special you think others should obey you.  You use power thrusts (getting over physically or psychologically on another person) to get out of zero state.  Getting over on others, lying, manipulating are all good ways to control others; they do not have the right to make any demands on you.

Example:          You tell your boyfriend that he had better have sex with you because if he doesn’t you’ll find someone who will.

Payoff:              You get people to do what you want.  You feel superior to others.  You do not have to do what others ask of you.

Consequence:   You do not know how to have a relationship with another person (due in part to your selfishness).  People avoid you.  You do not know how to meet your own needs since you are used to other people meeting them for you.
