It's Tuesday and we're talking Transurfing

In any situation, a person can respond with two extremes of behavior. One is to be swept along by the current like a powerless paper boat and the other is to row stubbornly against the tide. We can ALL remember a time when we have been one or the other.

• Lazy, incapable of taking initiative, has no goals, and is happy to simply exist then they can be controlled.
• They become “predoomed” or a pendulum’s puppet
• They abdicate responsibility
• Wallowing in self-importance
• However, we’ve been given the ultimate gift: freedom of choice, yet some are too infantile to accept the gift preferring to remain constantly dissatisfied.
• People justify their actions, claiming their path is strewn with obstacles and something always goes wrong.
• But that something is balancing forces and pendulums that arise as a consequence of excess potential generated by their self-importance.
• Indignant - the guy on the airplane who demands his seat. A person who believes that their own wants and needs should be a priority for others would never dream that they are merely a guest in this world.
• People declare war on the pendulums, get drawn into the competition, and elbow their way forward. Their entire life becomes a continuous struggle for survival.
• When a person learns to break the loop with the pendulum they will have their freedom.
• To free yourself from the burden of pendulums you have to abandon inner and outer importance.
• We are not to be needy, indignant, or a fighter. So what are we to do? Next week we will discuss 3 tactical behaviors on doing this.

1. Going with the flow
2. Guiding signs
3. Letting go
