229. Four Games People Play

“(I've Got a) Wooden Leg”…”(You've Got a) Blemish”…”Kick Me”…and “Look What You Made Me Do!” These are four more Games that People Play. 

In the 1960s, psychologist Eric Berne noticed that some people repeat the same silly arguments &/or patterns over & over again. He called these destructive patterns “games.” But even though they prevent people from having fun, solving problems, and getting along, they are common. In this episode, I cover four more, as well as get into Berne's solutions. Careful…you don't want a game to become a life-script.
