9.6 Truth For Bullies

Whether it is a spouse, family member, friend, coworker, or neighbor, many of us know someone who is most eager with their behavior to impose his/her version of what is true and correct for living life.. One of their viewpoints often is that one size fits all and the world would be a better place if everyone thought and behaved in the same way.    Compromise and structuring win-win outcomes for our relationships may often be seen as a weakness and to be avoided.   These individuals tend to use certain words to impose their viewpoint like:   should, reality, normal, healthy, natural, etc.   Since we live in a world governed by our social interactions with others, it can be most positive for us to understand and develop strategies for dealing with any truth bullies we may have in our world.
