Different Seeing=Different Doing

Most people if you asked them would say that a cube has six sides. Most people would be right. But only right according to what the definition of a side is. What if each ridge that connected the sides (sorry I don't know exactly what this is called) was also a "side"? How many sides are there to a story? Two? Right? Wrong! Wongdidddy wong wong wong! It always depends on how many people were there at the experience? The story might even change based upon who is not there.
Hmmmm? So what are you trying to say here? Or did I just say nothing at all? And where is here exactly? Depends upon what it is in relation to or compared to. Isn't it strangely how everything even you and I are connected in such intangible ways?
A simple experiment that I have used effectively with clients is to take a ball or a cube or some object and write the word "experience" on it. I then take this object and do something with it. If it's a ball, I might spin it on the table or throw it to the client. I then ask the client a question.
"How many ways could we look at this experience or as far as that goes any experience we ever have in our life?"
Usually, there is no response at this juncture. So I get the ball back and do something else with it. Something, a little more comical perhaps like spinning it on my head or if the object I'm using is a balloon I might pop it somehow. If it's a balloon we would then look at our experience that formerly we were always having trouble with. For example, the balloon was always following us around, bumping into us, and or causing us problems ( you might have the client take a string and tie the balloon to their wrist or something and have them walk around for awhile to illustrate this) and now that it's deflated look how managable it is. You might want to go on and disect your balloon and take only the positives or the learning that you received from the "experience" and discard the guilt or any other negative emotions that are asssociated with the experience.
Remember, I didn't tell you inhale helium for more effective sessions. But who knows?
