How Lotte (Generator) stopped saying yes on impulse

From four reluctant cancellations a month to a clear yes or no.

Where Lotte felt stuck

Lotte was invited to a party and said, 'yeees, lovely!' Two days later, she thought: why did I say that? Then she cancelled again, feeling guilty.

The pattern repeated with work, dates and courses.

Emotional authority means that truth only emerges after a wave of highs and lows. At the peak, everything feels fantastic; in the trough, awful.

As a Generator, she does need a response to something, but the final decision waits.

Used a standard reply: 'I'll let you know tomorrow'.
Only said yes if something still felt like a 'yes' response both at the peak and in the trough.
Used a Sacral check after 24 hours, not immediately.

Cancellations fell to almost zero. Friends trusted her 'yes' again.

She felt less fragmented because her week matched what she had previously agreed to.

Enthusiasm is not a decision. Especially with commitments spanning several weeks, it helps to separate your enthusiasm from your 'yes'.
