Declare yourself

the long version

The way people choose to relate to others is the key to interpersonal relationships. The discontent people experience may be the result of limited, learned options and alternatives in the ways people behave interpersonally. Learning changes behavior. Individuals are capable of learning alternatives to the way they presently interact with people. Operational language in interpersonal relationships can broaden an individual's range of responses, help solve interpersonal problems, and prevent reoccurance. Declaring behavior is used to gain control in life. The behaviors of guilt, depression, and worry are inherent in the "get-my-way" process. The detructive behavior patterns and ineffectual self-defeating, and manipulative. An action is a more effective response to a situation than is a feeling.
