| Understanding
human behaviour is an infinitely enriching activity. To do it well you need to
observe people carefully and take into account the many causes which can affect
how people behave. You also need to separate behaviour from personality. |

causes |
| Knowing
more about the origins of behaviour allows you to understand that when people
do not behave like themselves there is probably a very good reason, and that when
they do not behave like you, they are simply behaving like themselves. |

| Do
unto others ... |
| ...
your own behaviour has a much greater influence on everyone else than you may
have ever understood, and it is this which can often induce others to behave as
they do. |
| |
| Co-dependency |
| The
desire to help people with deep-seated needs can be so strong that you may find
yourself endlessly trying to make up for the emotional deficiencies in their lives
by trying to provide a continuous drip-feed of comfort and support. |
