Pulling off a 'minor miracle' is a double edged sword... you solved your Principal's problem but now they will expect a miracle every day...

  • Should the protector be expected to pre-plan problem solving for the unexpected?
  • How can you balance managing your family obligations with constantly moving expectations for work related problem solving?
  • How can the protector remove emotional responses to routine problems?
  • How can we adopt the mentality of 'playing how you practice'?
  • If you manage to pull of a minor miracle, how can you manage expectations regarding always pulling it off?
