You might want to start by seeing what actions contribute least to your survival. If you can&#8217;t make up your mind, try explaining to someone you trust why all of your actions are necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will be holding a Zoom workshop this Sunday at 12 noon EST, where we can help each other examine our barriers to change and devise strategies for making them gateways instead of barriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost all barriers represent some past counter-intention we could not overcome, so we carry them forward to prevent them from stopping us again, by avoiding the things we tried before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost all past failures occurred because we were unable to grant beingness to some opposing viewpoint and we barreled ahead without understanding the basis for the opposing viewpoint and counter-intention. In our workshop this Sunday, we should be able to take an exterior look at some persisting barriers and help each other open the way to creating a new future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join us on Zoom, Sunday, at 12 noon EST using the usual link. If you don&#8217;t have the link, send me an email at <a href=\"mailto:srtcounseling@gmail.com\">srtcounseling@gmail.com<\/a> telling me why you want to participate in the workshop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David St Lawrence<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you don&#8217;t have time to create a new future, don&#8217;t bother to read the rest of this post.
