    BE GENUINE IN GIVING STROKES.
    Both of these can be positive and

    STROKE ECONOMY

    People overuse negative strokes and under


    use positive strokes – learning of childhood.
    RULES:
     Don’t give positive strokes. If you have to give
    them, don’t give them freely.
     Don’t ask for positive strokes if you need
    them.
     Don’t accept positive strokes. Reject them.
     Don’t give yourself any strokes.
    Examine your assumptions. Power of positive
    assumptions can turn the mountains. Learn to
    give negative strokes when they are due.

    maneuver” is accompanied by

    R: The transactions are complementary,
    and the game is in progress when the
    “Response” pattern is set up.
    S: At any moment the player may pull an
    invisible, unconscious “internal switch”
    which leads to a
    X: “Cross-up or “moment of confusion”,
    and finally to the
    P: “Payoff” of the Game
