Do You Want to Be Right or Successful?

Is the compulsion to be right imprinted in the DNA of the human species? If so, what does it take to override it?

Way too often I encounter in tarot readings how professionals upend their career by choosing to be right in interactional matters at work. Those have no linkage to strategy or operations.

Their choice? They could have just ignored. That's even if objectively the others were wrong. The matter is not important. 

For example, in discussing the current administration, a few are spouting incorrect facts. Among them are superiors. The person makes it their mission to correct. That does not go over well. Unfortunately, this is a pattern. And it's about relationships. Not business. But it shapes - negatively - careers in business. 

Psychotherapist Julia Gregson, based in southeastern Arizona, noted that in relationships there is "no objective reality." To insist on it can undermine, for instance, a marriage. Her quip is: Do you want to be married or do you want to be right? 

Of course, there are contexts in which objective reality is critical, whether it is professional life or a romantic partnership. Those range from how funds are spent to maintaining safety. Save your fact-finding for those. 

In the tarot the Four of Swords symbolizes the need for a pause. At work, that can override any inner programming to be right.

Thriving in difficult times starts from the inside.
