React and Become Defensive
(Rule 5)

Defensiveness Touchiness is a blatant symptom of having little or no self-worth. Being sensitive means you judge other people's points of view as being more important than yours and are looking for approval.


No matter how much you disagree inside, you invariably yield to somebody else's beliefs outside.


You refuse to be seen as a peer and this is what makes you angry. Rather than standing up for yourself, you act out by becoming belligerent, quarrelsome or guarded, fueling the mounting upset.


To top it off, defensiveness openly exhibited makes it difficult for anyone to honestly communicate with you.


People who know you, are prone to watch what they say when you're around. One slip of the tongue and you act destroyed.


Where does defensiveness come from? Judgment showing up as some form of non-acceptance.
