Well, seriously, if you spend most of the time using your power of persuasion to deflect, you might need someone who can cut through all that if you want to make progress.
Do you think you use persuasion as a defensive strategy to protect yourself from difficult topics?
And what if you really wanted to persuade the new T and couldn't? |
Ooh, he's asking the tough questions!
I think it's because at the same time I'm trying to justify myself/thoughts/feelings/behaviors and it helps if I can get someone else on my side.
If I had a different T I couldn't convince of half the crap I do now, I guess it would depend on how he/she approached it. I'd probably at least feel invalid and like a failure though.
