 %JACK GOD GIVEN MACHO NATURE UNCHANGEABLE POSSIBLE 890505

     Jack  believes that his macho nature is a  God  given
characteristic  gift which cannot be changed,  and  should
not be changed.

     Jack   believes   that  others  have   a   duty,    a
responsibility,  to adjust to his macho behavior  patterns
which  he  can  not influence because they are  God  given
behavior patterns.

     When  people  believe that their present  pattern  of
behavior is unchangeable,  lack the power to modify  their
own  pattern of behavior;  they are victims imprisoned  by
their beliefs,  unable to adapt to changing circumstances.
Such  beliefs  make  survival of their  peculiar  form  of
behavior  unlikely,  for they can not adjust wisely.  They
just react compulsively to situations. They do not respond
wisely to situations.

     Macho people react compulsively to situations without
wise  thought.  They cannot make use of any memory of past
experience as seen through careful thought.  They react to
each   situation   in  a  reflex  way  which   is   highly
predictable; and so is highly manipulable.

     Macho people are vulnerable to manipulation by people
who  familiarize  themselves with  the  macho  thoughtless
patterns of reaction.  Push a button and the macho  person
obeys the instruction in a rather predictable way.

     Macho   people  are  not  in  control  of  their  own
behavior.   Macho people have little influence over  their
own behavior. Macho people are not responsive people, they
do not respond thoughtfully to others; thus,  they can not
be fully responsible people.

                                                                                                                               
                         (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in      
                    (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy)
