aRecap of the Psychosocial Pressures

Activation & Stabilization

The first four Groupings activate and stabilize efforts to attempt the impossible:

G1-Hope operates under a 1° pressure for autonomy. This means that whole structure is founded on free personal choice. No one can hope for you.

However, when it comes to the various options: trying, believing, facing, participating, risking, learning, trusting, then there is a 2° pressure to understand the situation.

G2-Determination operates under a 1° pressure for understanding. This links to the importance of communicating reassurance. All parties have to understand the nature of the promise that is being offered.

However, when it comes to the various promises themselves: persevering, realising, engaging, committing, developing, cultivating, there is a 2° pressure for performance because delivery of those promises is expected and may even be demanded.

G3-Endurance operates under a 1° pressure for performance because it is absolutely essential for contesting with others, actively withstanding disruptions and dealing with setbacks and obstacles.

However, when it comes to the various means of prevailing: coping, following, confronting, embedding, venturing, then the importance of success means there is a 2° pressure for certainty about choices.

G4-Relationships operate under a 1° pressure for certainty and this means that other parties need to be checked out and there should be clarity about bonds and inter-personal arrangements.

However, when it comes to the various means of protecting balance: compromising, opposing, collaborating, uniting, then there is a 2° pressure for acceptability because bonds will break and balance will be lost if any interactions are deemed offensive, improper or otherwise unacceptable.

Power & Justification

The final three Groupings energize the process and make the attempt worthwhile:

G5-Capabilities operate under a 1° pressure for acceptability, which means that their declaration is socially sensitive. From a personal viewpoint, making any particular ability or resource available for the effort must be acceptable to yourself.

However, when it comes to the various forms of drive: supporting, exploring, leading, then there is a 2° pressure for well-being which means enjoying or at least feeling comfortable contributing in these ways.

G6-Ideals operate under a 1° pressure for well-being which flows from their activation of ultimate values and preferred value system as well as personal needs.

However, when it comes to the two sources of excellence: practising and converting, then there is a 2° pressure for selflessness. Ego must be put to one side if the highest standards of skill and correct thinking are to be developed.

G7-Energies operate under a 1° pressure for selflessness which means that their release is not ego-driven but a response to a situation that demands handling, no matter how challenging.

However, when it comes to serving, there is a 2° pressure for autonomy which ensures that choices under selflessness are personally chosen, and therefore truly willing rather than being a result of forced compliance or calculated manipulation.
