Understanding Authenticity and Reflection

Tyler, a type three, reflects on his past roles and achievements, questioning the authenticity of his actions. He realizes that he often accepted invitations to specific roles based on external validation and the belief that he would excel in them. However, he is now challenging himself to differentiate between his desires and the desires projected onto him. He aims to let go of living through his children, particularly his son, who is a counterphobic six. Tyler struggles to strike a balance between encouraging his son to achieve and respecting his authentic desires, such as spending time with friends. He acknowledges the difficulty of relinquishing his own aspirations for his son and the tension it creates in their relationship.
