Description

Description

The structure of our personalities can be understood through Transactional Analysis, which identifies three observable ego-states: Parent, Adult, and Child. According to Thomas Harris, most people are living out the Not ok feelings of a defenseless child, dependent on others for care and attention. We adopt a "position" about ourselves and others at some stage in life that determines how we feel about everything we do. For many, this position is "I'm Not OK -- You're OK," which contaminates our rational Adult capabilities and leaves us vulnerable to inappropriate emotional reactions from our Child ego-state. By exploring the structure of our personalities and understanding old decisions, Harris believes we can find freedom to change our lives. This book offers a unique perspective on how our early experiences shape our adult relationships and behavior, and provides guidance on how to break free from limiting patterns and develop more fulfilling connections with others.
