So we need to start adopting the attitude of a prisoner of war now to survive this divorce experience? Oh man, I know you mean well - to think that I'm in such a grim situation right now that I have to adopt the attitude of a prisoner of war - how did it come to this? It's unbelievable - less than six months ago I was a happy family man, with a happy wife, happy kids, living in my dream home, with a stable job and all was well. How did it all blow up so quickly?
qt my friend... This is an example of that self talk you just wrote of.... The paradox is about how to most effectively manage challenging situations... Your view and talk is that it is a prisoner of war mentality... Col. Stockdale was a man in a difficult situation not of his choosing... qt is a man in a difficult situation not of his choosing... The Colonal made a choice to do something about it and adopted a thought process to focus his mind in a place of action...
What will qt do?
I have to run but I will swing back to check in on you... You have more power and control in this moment than you can know... But knowing starts with a choice... Then some actions... I believe you in you brother
