| Emotional Bank Account |
| |
The Emotional Bank Account We all know what a financial
bank account is. We make deposits into it and build up a
reserve from which we can make withdrawals when we need to. An
Emotional Bank Account is a metaphor that describes the amount
of trust that's been built up in a relationship. It's the
feeling of safeness you have with another human being. If I
make deposits into an Emotional Bank Account with you through
courtesy, kindness, honesty, and keeping my commitments to
you, I build up a reserve. Your trust toward me becomes
higher, and I can call upon that trust many times if I need
to. I can even make mistakes and that trust level, that
emotional reserve, will compensate for it. My communication
may not be clear, but you'll get my meaning anyway. You won't
make me "an offender for a word." When the trust account is
high, communication is easy, instant, and effective. But if
I have a habit of showing discourtesy, disrespect, cutting you
off, overreacting, ignoring you, becoming arbitrary, betraying
your trust, threatening you, or playing little tin god in your
life, eventually my Emotional Bank Account is overdrawn. The
trust level gets very low. Then what flexibility do I
have? None. I'm walking on mine fields. I have to be very
careful of everything I say. I measure every word. It's
tension city, memo haven. It's protecting my backside,
politicking. And many organizations are filled with it. If
a large reserve of trust is not sustained by continuing
deposits, a marriage will deteriorate. Instead of rich,
spontaneous understanding and communication, the situation
becomes one of accommodation, where two people simply attempt
to live independent life-styles in a fairly respectful and
tolerant way. The relationship may further deteriorate to one
of hostility and defensiveness. The "fight or flight" response
creates verbal battles, slammed doors, refusal to talk,
emotional withdrawal and self-pity. It may end up in a cold
war at home, sustained only by children, sex, social pressure,
or image protection. Or it may end up in open warfare in the
courts, where bitter ego decimating legal battles can be
carried on for years as people endlessly confess the sins of a
former spouse. And this is in the most intimate, the most
potentially rich, joyful, satisfying and productive
relationship possible between two people on this earth.
Our most constant relationships, like marriage, require
our most constant deposits. With continuing expectations, old
deposits evaporate. If you suddenly run into an old high
school friend you haven't seen for years, you can pick up
right where you left off because the earlier deposits are
still there. But your accounts with the people you interact
with on a regular basis require more constant investment.
There are sometimes automatic withdrawals in your daily
interactions or in their perception of you that you don't even
know about. This especially true with teenagers in the
home. Now suppose this son is in the process of making some
important decisions that will affect the rest of his life. But
the trust level is so low and the communication process so
closed, mechanical, and unsatisfying that he simply will not
be open to your counsel. You may have the wisdom and the
knowledge to help him, but because your account is so
overdrawn, he will end up making his decisions from a
short-range emotional perspective, which may well result in
many negative long-range consequences. What would happen
if you started making deposits into the relationship? Maybe
the opportunity comes up to do him a little kindness - to
bring home a magazine on skateboarding, if that's his
interest, or just to walk up to him when he's working on a
project and offer to help. Perhaps you could invite him to go
to a movie with you or take him out for some ice cream.
Probably the most important deposit you could make would be
just to listen, without judging or preaching or reading your
own autobiography into what he says. Just listen and seek to
understand. Let him feel your concern for him, your acceptance
of him as a person. He may not respond at first. He may
even be suspicious, but as those genuine deposits keep coming,
they begin to add up. That overdrawn balance is
shrinking. Remember that quick fix is a mirage. Building
and repairing relationships takes time. If you become
impatient with his apparent lack of response or his seeming
ingratitude, you may make huge withdrawals and undo all the
good you've done. It's hard not to get impatient. It takes
character to be proactive, to focus on your Circle of
Influence, to nurture growing things, and not to "pull up the
flowers to see how the roots are coming." But there really
is no quick fix. Building and repairing relationships are
long-term investments. Reproduced from "The 7 Habits of
Highly Effective People" by Stephen R. Covey
