Why do I act crazy (sometimes)… And why do you?Our behaviors are connected to our emotional needs. has a great framework to help you clarify your deepest emotional need.Primal Question #2 is, “Am I Secure?“You may not think so, but that’s different than Primal Question #1, “Am I Safe?”Safety is about being at risk of physical or emotional harm, but security is about having enough financially and relationally to survive. I have a friend who sold his company for millions and still walks around his house. Turning off lights that are not in use. He drives a mid 2000’s Honda Accord, and will only get water at restaurants. He carries something inside of him that says “Sure, you may have enough today, but you might not have enough tomorrow.“The gift PQ2’s bring to the world is trustworthiness in friendships, and stability within the organizations and families they are in. But if they’re going to bring that gift, they must ground themselves in their primal truth: “I do have enough, and I am capable of earning and promoting healthy relationships.”So if this is you, look for reminders that you have enough, and remind yourself of ways you know how to make money and to thrive relationally. You’re loved & I’m for you…
