%KINDS REFLEXIVE BEHAVIOR HAZARDS EXCLUSIVE BALANCE 961208

     There    are   many  different  kinds  of   reflexive
behavior,   and   for  each  kind  of  reflexive  behavior
there   are advantages  and hazards inherent in each  kind
of   reflexive   behavior---both   by    itself   and   in
relationship   to   other  kinds  of  behavior;    whether
reflexive or not.

     The  following  words  are  suggestive  of  the  many
different kinds of reflexive behavior:

SELF-WATCHING                SELF-ANALYSIS

SELF-ADMIRATION              SELF-EVALUATION

SELF-JUDGEMENT               SELF-CONDEMNATION

SELF-ALIENATION              SELF-IMPROVEMENT

SELF-CORRECTION              SELF-MOTIVATION

SELF-PROMOTION               SELF-CENTERING

SELF-ASSESSMENT              SELF-ORIENTATION

SELF-INTEGRATION             SELF-DESTRUCTION

SELF-DISINTEGRATION          SELF-PUNISHMENT

     Some  kinds  of  reflexive  behavior are  in  and  of
themselves   more  prone  to  be  either  integrative   or
disintegrative.   Self-destruction and self-punishment are
prone  to  be disintegrative.    Self-watching  and  self-
correction may be integrative.

     Some  kinds of reflexive behavior are integrative  or
disintegrative  in  ways which depend greatly  upon  their
relationships  with  other  kinds  of  behavior;   whether
reflexive  or  not.     All kinds of  behavior  which  are
exclusive  of  other  kinds of behavior are  prone  to  be
disintegrative; whether reflexive or not.   Those kinds of
behavior which are associated with seeking to be balanced,
coherent, prudent, thoughtful, considerate,  sensitive and
responsive---are   more  prone  to  be  integrative   than
disintegrative.

     Individual persons and communities are integrative or
disintegrative  according to what kinds of  emphases  they
place  upon  various reflexive and non-reflexive kinds  of
behaviors ---  considered separately and as parts of  webs
of   interacting   ways  of   approaching   opportunities,
challenges, risks, mistakes, misfortunes, and tragedies.

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