Biological Laws – Example: Job Termination
If a person is terminated, it seems dramatic. However, if this termination is the result of a foreseeable deterioration in the company’s economic situation over a longer period of time, this termination will not catch the person unexpectedly. However, if the person receives the termination suddenly and without warning signs, a biological conflict arises. How this conflict is perceived and what potential it holds is determined by the current intentions/goals of the confronted person.
A person who strongly defines themselves through their work and/or for whom work serves to secure their livelihood is confronted with a greater conflict than someone who views work as covering living expenses but reacts flexibly in thought and seeks a new job to cover costs, thus experiencing no or only a minor conflict.
The following exemplary persons experience the same situation objectively (termination of employment), but interpret it differently due to the different types of biological needs.
Example Comparisons (Mr. A, B, C and D) – Job Termination
The person (Mr. A), who secures their livelihood (their daily bread) through the job, sees their daily bread in danger with the termination. The biological conflict is shaped by the aspect of starvation conflict.
The 3 criteria of highly acute, isolative and unexpected are fulfilled. The organ level reacts due to the activated SBS with hyperfunction and cell growth of the liver. This hyperfunction enables more efficient utilization of available nutrients. The level of the psyche is changed in that the compulsive search for new sources of income determines thinking.
The person (Mr. B), who views their job as their own territory, will experience a biological conflict with the content of a territorial loss conflict due to the intrusion into their sphere of influence.
The three criteria are fulfilled for Mr. B. The organ level reacts with a widening of the coronary arteries.
For the person (Mr. C) who is strongly defined through the job, who is unexpectedly terminated and experiences a drop in self-worth with the termination, the three criteria for a conflict shock are also fulfilled simultaneously.
The conflict content of the conflict shock for Mr. C lies in the performance definition, which activates a drop in self-worth.
The person (Mr. D), who views their job as covering living costs but is mentally flexible, perceives the termination as unexpected and isolative, but not as highly acute-dramatic. Only two criteria are fulfilled.
For Mr. D, no SBS is necessary due to the lack of drama.
One and the same situation is perceived differently by humans and animals, depending on current perception, situation, experience, etc. We cannot control or prevent the start of the biological special programs with our consciousness/mind.
On the contrary: These special programs, from a biological perspective, serve our survival and help us to get out of certain situations more quickly – if we think bio-logically and behave bio-logically.
