Johari Window: exploring the hidden parts…
You have a
secret!
Maybe the
reason you have it is because you consider it so valuable, you don’t want to
share, at least not to everyone and not until this moment; which is OK, after
all, treasures are to be kept. They are an object of legend! Right?
I give you
an alternative. Find the right moment (soon, please!) and show that talent you
have, what you have been studying or the wonderful discovery you are not
revealing to others.
In fact,
the more you expose your treasures, the more you will develop them.
However,
there are secrets you don’t tell others because of some type of fear. What are
they going to tell me if they know this?
If you
really want to develop a good relationship with other people, those secrets can
turn into an obstacle. There are a few options for you:
- Find the RIGHT MOMENT, that instant people will value what you have. It is true particularly in relation to talents or skills.
- Generate a space of dialogue and talk to those people, open your heart. Before doing that, take some mercy balm in the form of a nice book with encouraging words or a song that will remind you how great you are. This is specially for those secrets that can harm a relationship.
- In both cases, I suggest you to meditate before doing any of those things. Meditation will empower you.
- If people hurt you because what you have shown or told them, don’t cry. The meditation will help you to not get into despair and something good you can do is to remind yourself THAT IS MY TREASURE. As they didn’t recognize its value, it is time to look for other people who will value it as much as you do.
There may
be many more reasons for you to keep things hidden from others, but I would
like to highlight two more:
- Self-doubt. Yes, you have that treasure, but you are not sure it is so interesting or others need it. The best thing for that is to talk with someone you trust and work on what to do about it.
- Maybe OTHERS haven’t acknowledged you have that treasure. Well, that hurts! You have already shown them, you have talked to them and you have posted it everywhere, but people seem to ignore it or at least they don’t give the value you think it should receive. Well, in that case, a talk with experts in the area of your treasure will clear your mind in relation to others’ reasons. After that, you can plan what to do to make others appreciate that wonderful treasure.
