but also how well we handle ourselves and each other.”
Daniel Goleman

51. THE DILEMMA AND THE OPPORTUNITY
“No two people think alike on everything. No two people feel the same way at all times within a relationship. No two people want the same things or want them at the same time. People operate from different time tables. We are, in fact, autonomous, different, and unique beings. Yet we are, at the same time, dependent on others. We need them to help us get many of the things we want (or not prevent us from getting them). We are also dependent on others to validate our
existence and worth.”
Satir Virginia. Conjoint Family Therapy, Palo Alto, California: Science and Behavior Books
