Hoe op aarde kry jy dit reg?

Hoe op aarde kry jy dit reg? Lynette Beer

Dit is merkwaardig wat ‘n positiewe ingesteldheid vir jou gesondheid kan doen. My vriendin se ma beland in die hospitaal vir ‘n voetoperasie. Haar grootste bekommernis is dat hulle tog asseblief haar eie nagklere moet aantrek as sy uit die teater kom.

Sy glimlag dadelik toe sy uitkom, soek iets om te drink en kam haar hare. “Dis seer” verklaar sy, “maar ek dink ek sal vanaand huis toe gaan. Is mos beter by jou eie huis.” ‘n Uur later verras sy die fisioterapeut wat nog vir die tannie wil wys watse oefeningtjies sy moet doen deur op te staan, die ortopediese skoen aan te pluk en badkamer toe te loop.

Haar buurvrou vir die dag kan nie al die aktiwiteit glo nie. Sy is heelwat jonger, maar het met haar vorige operasie vir ses weke nie geloop nie. As haar man haar nie in die rolstoel kon uitstoot nie, het sy maar bly lê. Die fisioterapeut verduidelik ‘n halfuur lank vir haar hoe die oefeninge gedoen moet word, en dit gaan met vreeslike steun en kreun geluide gepaard.

Die spesialis kom verby om te kyk hoe gaan dit met sy pasiënte. Die oudste tannie is gereed om huis toe te gaan. Die ander vrou voel duidelik sy moes liewer die nag gebly het, want netnou gebeur daar iets en gaan die suster ‘n rolstoel bring sodat sy tot by die motor kan kom? Sy het darem gelukkig nou die loopraampie by die huis.

Terwyl ek al die drama gade geslaan het, het ek net weer besef, hoe jy dink oor ‘n saak is presies hoe jou liggaam daarop gaan reageer. Vir die een vrou was die operasie nog ‘n geleentheid om hulpeloos vir ses weke te wees. Om haarself jammer te kry en verder te kla. Vir die ander was die operasie ‘n noodsaaklikheid om agter die rug te kry sodat sy kan aangaan met haar lewe.

Twee dae later is my vriendin se ma besig om die tuin nat te spuit. “Ek kan nou nie my plantjies laat doodgaan net omdat my voet seer is nie. Nee, man, ‘n mens gaan lê nie net nie. Jy gaan aan. Kyk net hoe mooi glimlag die ou gesiggies vir jou”, gesels sy vrolik al is die voet nog seer. ‘n Positiewe gesindheid maak ‘n reuse verskil.

The Four Temperaments in the Health Care Industry
By Lynette Beer 25 Apr, 2023
I have to date, not met any successful healthcare worker without a deep love for people. Empathy and caring for people's needs should form part of any nurse or doctor's make-up – unless they choose to spend time in laboratories or the admin side of the industry.
The Four Temperaments in the Classroom
By Lynette Beer 25 Apr, 2023
If there is one place knowledge of the temperaments could save one's bacon, it is in the classroom. Teachers who know the characteristics of the four temperaments would invest in their survival and peace of mind by applying this knowledge to the learning environment.
The Four Temperaments and Stress Management - Finding Balance
By Lynette Beer 25 Apr, 2023
Stress management is not a nice-to-have skill. If anything, dealing with stress could be a lifesaver. For many corporate positions, it has become a prerequisite for employment.
The Impact of Temperament on Communication
By Lynette Beer 18 Apr, 2023
Communicating is a vital life skill that does not come naturally to all. When it comes to talking, the Red and Yellow temperaments have no problem at all – to the contrary, they are talkers par excellence. As the storyteller and performer, Yellow could make an impromptu speech with little or no warning, while Red could persuade a large group to follow his course or buy into his concept. But listening – the other crucial ingredient of communication - is a skill both Red and Yellow must practise.
The Four Temperaments and Leadership: How to Effectively Lead a Team
By Lynette Beer 18 Apr, 2023
Although the two extrovert types, Raving Red and Yappy Yellow, are traditionally the apparent leaders, all temperaments can lead a team. It is a misconception that introverts do not make good leaders.
Navigating Romantic Relationships with Different Temperaments
By Lynette Beer 01 Mar, 2023
Although opposites often attract, there is no scientific proof that this is the norm. However, it is common to find an introvert marrying an extrovert or a people-oriented person finding a task-oriented Red or Blue attractive. This could be a subconscious step to compliment him- or herself or simply make sure that he or she does not have to perform a duty that does not come naturally or comfortably.
Exploring the Four Temperaments in Parenting
By Lynette Beer 01 Mar, 2023
‘Know Thyself’ has never been as crucial as in the parenting role. Parents have often told me that the child they battle the most with is the one that resembles them – in character and temperament. Flaring up against young Jimmy because he shows signs of your own shortcomings is human – but not fair.
The Groovy Green Temperament and Decision Making
By Lynette Beer 01 Mar, 2023
Groovy Green hates making decisions – it comes with the temperament… He or she is a master procrastinator and good at passing on the decision-making buck. Feeling unworthy and not ‘good enough’, clever enough or competent enough to make any decision, is almost a natural reaction for our Green brothers and sisters.
