I thought this morning about writing as pertains to the ego involved. I'll tell you my own first impression there. I am not gifted or on a different plain, and you can easily access the ideas herein.
I saw that for the most part, (outside of self-benefits), that I only plainly tell you what I know.
I said I talked of being enlightened a decade ago, and I know that this was relatively true even in hindsight. However, I was the beneficiary of enlightenment because someone else pounded into me the foundation over many, many years. The two major components were conscious separation or detachment to become totally objective. The other was the concept that it was more important to be decisive, and have power over fate by caring for the awareness to stand unwaveringly beside one's own choices, regardless of consequences.
The objectivity from detachment assures intelligent (not foolproof) choices, and you must cultivate that consequences are your responsibility even as your focus is on the process of choosing. When objectivity and responsible decisiveness become habitual, then you learn that standing in the fire (accepting hottest challenges without evasion) is doable.
Trust me, when I started on this path I was a total wimp (running away from responsibility all the time). I was a slow learner too.
The main point here is that the concepts forwarded have value, and to tell you when I speak to you, it is not from being a self-obsessed braggart.
