Make things look less bad

Your personality sees an important justification for himself in the fact that he can attempt to make things less unpleasant or bad as they are - or appear to be. It may be not too pleasant according to his own mechanism of interpreting, however, something cán be done about this. He will always attempt to weaken an unpleasant interpretation, and when this does not work, look for distraction (through others, hiding etc.)

When you let this be strong in your personality, you may find for example that you respond very quickly to a question or request, because this in itself comes with a form of tension because it is accompanied by an expectation for an answer.

It works the other way around as well. In situations where your personality wants to reclaim his grip on your life, he will cause certain issues first and make them look bad, only to then start weakening this original interpretation. Physical issues are a fine example of this. As soon as you feel an unpleasantness in your body, you grab for pills, a doctor or look for other forms of pain relief. Great personality stuff in itself. How and why it came about in the first place is conveniently erased from your awareness, you are requested to focus on the 'luck' that you at least can lessen or get rid of its effects.

Instead of the above, allow yourself to fully experience whatever it is that your personality creates, rather than making avoíding this into a goal in itself. That is unpleasant, yes, and by facing this in full (which is a lot easier when you have not diminished its effects), you can become aware of the personality mechanism which lies at the basis of it, and you will no doubt see that it does not bring you anything you really want. Thus you will automatically stop your investment in repeating this kind of patterns, and make more mental space available for your inner Self.

This works in all kinds of situations, from dealing with a mess in the kitchen to bodily issues or for example attempting to hide an error. Break through the mechanism that you would háve to react to the outcome of an unpleasant situation. This allows you to stop making everything 'work' in your life.

Why your personality invests so heavily in upholding this mechanism? He knows too well that you do not want to listen to him anymore when you find out what this really is all about. Therefore this mechanism serves him well, now he can block all this from your awareness as much as possible, so the risk of you no longer wanting to listen to him is minimized.
