How a Learner Could Get Along With a Wise Leader

Wise Leaders like to talk to each other about what’s working and what isn’t with the people they lead. Sometimes they may try ways that cause you some harm. You may fear that the damage caused to your mind will never be known, and that the Wise Leader and the group will keep on using that harmful way on others. You may choose to keep the damage they caused your mind by walking around feeling awkward, sad, or hurt, or even telling them you are sad. They will want to have a nice talk and try to find out why. That way, maybe they will know what they did, realize it was a mistake, and say they are sorry. After they say sorry, you can focus on undoing the damage they have caused you.

If you do something bad on purpose, they take it to mean you are telling them something about yourself that would help you do more good than the bad thing you did. They are Pocobian. They are good at asking themselves, “What kind of messages would be so important that it would be worthwhile upsetting me or someone else for even a chance to communicate it?” and coming up with good answers. It's OK to use unconventional ways to communicate with them. If you are feeling like something is hindering you, and the only way you can think to communicate it at the time is to do something frustrating and hope they understand, then they will believe it’s OK – however, they have limits to what they can understand, so you can only do this sometimes.

If you believe in them as much as you would a Self Guider or Everything Knower, they will feel partially responsible and guilty if they did not guide you the right way.

Unless there is a danger, you don’t need to do anything until you are ready. They will not try to push you to use any of the ways of a Wise Leader until you want to. They will keep on leaving openings for you to jump in and join them if you want to, but they do not have strong feelings about whether you do or don’t.

If they send you to do something that will take up a large part of your life, and its purpose is to help you, you can trust they put a lot of time considering what you would go through by doing it. If you then were to let them know it went badly, they would feel sad and use this as an opportunity to improve themselves.

Wise Leaders appreciate it if you admire them for particular qualities, but they don’t like it when you think you could never have the qualities they have. They would want you to try to gain them, even if you think these qualities are beyond your reach.
