Line 58: Line 58:
We all view the world from our unique first-person viewpoint and perspective. But if other people's viewpoints cannot be comprehended, or there is a [[Lack of Empathy]] towards others, the viewpoint or ideology becomes disconnected, uncaring, unchecked, fixated, obsessed and destructive. This is the root of [[Negative Ego]].  The belief (or fear) that “no one can get the job done as well as I can” or “if you want it done right, do it yourself” drives many control freaks to interfere, bosses to micro-manage, and poor leaders to manipulate or overreach. Along with their first-person viewpoint, and inability to feel compassion for others position, their fear of failure drives them to control every aspect of their world as they attempt to ensure success and reduce their anxiety. In any case the control freak is preserving their own selfish interests at the expense of other's. Children are born believing they are at the center of the universe; tyrants never outgrow this belief.

Perhaps the control freak just does not know any better and is unaware of more constructive and effective approaches to achieving goals. Perhaps abuse is all they have ever known. Perhaps the only approach they ever learned for dealing with people is to abuse them. Perhaps their only role models were other control freaks. Perhaps you can have compassion for their ignorance and help them learn better approaches to building relationships.
Some tyrants and control freaks are enmeshed in the [[Negative Ego]] and [[Pain Body]] and in most cases just do not know any better and are unaware of more positive and effective approaches to achieving goals. Perhaps self destructive habits, addictive tendencies and abuse is all they have ever known. Many tyrants have been conditioned to learn the only approach they ever witnessed in dealing with other people is to abuse and control them. Perhaps one can have compassion for their [[Negative Ego]] ignorance and help them learn better approaches to building relationships based on trust.
