"Mr. Clean"
Are you compulsively clean? Does this drive others
nuts and cause you social problems? Stress? Anxiety? Now help is here. This course teaches you how to identify, then change,
what it is about you that makes you come across as obsessive over cleanliness--a
regular "Mr. Clean."
You feel you any mess will grow beyond repair, if not resolved immediately. Even if something is clean, it is never clean enough. Sure, this keeps you from enjoying some simple pleasures because you're busy getting that last mote of dust off of something or reorganizing your files yet again. But, it doesn't make sense for you to leave anything out of place because you'll only have to put it away later. Some people describe you as a neatness freak, though, and that bothers you.
You are interested in an
orderly world, where you can find things and where things are always
"right." While you'd like to be more "care free,"
you don't see how that's possible.
Too often, others get the
wrong idea about you. They sometimes see you as rigid, frigid, slow,
unbalanced, and inefficient. They think you have a tendency to worry
about things that don't matter, rather than participate in life. Some
are offended by your constant attention to organization and details,
while others are intimidated. Either way, people figure you disapprove
of their choices and so they don't share their ideas with you as readily.
Meanwhile others have become downright pushy with you, because they
see you as constantly wasting their time while they wait on you. The
result is the team isn't functioning the way you meant for it to. Your
efforts to focus on what is important to you are actually backfiring.
Its enough to make you squirm a bit, but thats
only because it rings true. The good news is, you can learn
how to make some serious and lasting changes in that pattern. In
this course, you learn to moderate aggressiveness and improve cooperation
from others in the process. A licensed psychologist and business consultant
takes you, step-by-step, through your self-improvement process.
This self-improvement process is exactly the same
process you would go through in professional treatment, but you do it
yourself (or with a friend) at a much lower cost. The course consists
of a guidance document you read as you work through the underlying issues
of your problem.
