Finding a way CI

Tuesday 9.50 am

Thanks once again for the thread starter, lennon.

I have done a few things today - mostly personal admin stuff that I was too tired to do last night. Gong to be another scorcher (weather-wise) today so need to use the earlier cooler hours to do MITs, especially new report structure and template, calls to RR and Dr S. Later will continue with data compilation and other items on my list.

Thanks to you all for being here; special thanks to everyone who has kept me company and given support in the chat box.

New Year’s
Resolutions Given by Seth



New Year’s Day, 1979  
 “Now: I wish you a Merry New Year, into which
I hope you manage to insert a touch of light-heartedness now and then.



“Now if I were you , making a list of resolutions, my list would include feelings and
attitudes. Things to do are well and good
- very
good indeed
- but the feelings and
attitudes are, shall we say, at least as important. I would not presume to make
a list of resolutions for you. But in an imaginative endeavor, this is what I
pretend I would list if I were you
-  Though this is a new year, there is nothing really new about
the list.”


 


One: I will approve of myself, my
characteristics, my abilities, my likes and dislikes, my inclinations and disinclinations,
realizing that these form my unique individuality. They are given me for a
reason. 


Two: I will approve of and rejoice in
my accomplishments and I will be as vigorous in listing these—as rigorous
in remembering them—as I have ever been in remembering and enumerating my
failures or lacks of accomplishment. 


Three: I will remember the creative
framework of existence in which I have my being. Therefore the possibilities,
potentials, seeming miracles, and joyful spontaneity of Framework 2 will be in
my mind, so that the doors to creative living are open. 


Four: I will realize that the future
is a probability. In terms of ordinary experience, nothing exists there yet. It
is virgin territory, planted by my feelings and thoughts in the present. Therefore
I will plant accomplishments and successes, and I will do this by remembering
that nothing can exist in the future that I do not want to be there.”
