"Where those strongly in the Service-to-Other prefer the company of others with a like mind-set, they seldom get this opportunity. Reliable individuals concerned with the welfare of others are spotted early by family and friends, who make endless efforts to pull them into service as a loyal employee, a faithful and long-suffering spouse, or a friend who can be counted upon to be there throughout any crisis. Such relationships are almost always portrayed by the determined self-serving individuals as benefiting the one giving service, not the true recipient - the onerous boss who tells the loyal employee how grateful he should be to have employment at all in the current market, the philandering spouse who relays that someone at work found them attractive and flirted or made a proposition. These techniques are intended to keep the one giving service insecure, hesitant about breaking the bonds and going elsewhere, and firmly in the service of the self-serving person. Given the attraction that those strongly in the Service-to-Others have for those who would use them for self-serving purposes, how does the Service-to-Other individual prepare for the coming emergencies that the pole shift will create?

"Those used to giving service, and making a compromise between the demands of others and their true sense of service to the larger pool of humanity, will seek to maintain this balance even when circumstances change. The guilt manipulation that self-serving individuals are often skilled at will reach a fever pitch during the coming crisis, but this is often revealed in an instant during such times. A bleeding child, in pain, is being attended while the spouse shrills from the sidelines, not offering to help but making increasingly shrill demands. The one in Service-to-Others suddenly realizes the situation, and thereafter has nothing further to do with the spouse, having made their decision. No longer caught in a cycle of mixed or divided loyalties, the one in Service-to-Others now finds themselves with greater energy, the conflict settled, so they can forge ahead with what they deem the proper priorities at the fore. The self-serving individuals left behind hardly take this decision as final, or go quietly, but will find themselves firmly and consistently ignored.
"This drama of choices can be anticipated by those struggling to carry their current burden of responsibilities during the coming crisis, and mentally and emotionally stepped through in order to expedite the choice when the time comes. It’s not a matter of turning one’s back on those who have always looked to you for support, it’s a matter of choices for the better good, the larger community of those in need, and taking charge of your life rather than allowing your actions to be determined by self-serving individuals."
