Here are a few of the common roadblocks that I have encountered over the years in my focus on shifting and holding new assembled positions...
1- Using my own experiential knowledge and collected information as an excuse not to stalk myself.
2- Failing to shift perspectives/opinions/positions regularly. Holding opinions and values about anything is locking an assembled position!
3- Failing to retain an obsession for examination and investigation. This is known as sobriety and leads to automatic shifts.
4- Not challenging every assumption that makes up my current assembled position.
5-Confusing intellectual fluency with the ability to do what it is I am talking about.
6- Not holding humility. Meaning that its hard to maintain the realization that I know nothing.
(When one knows nothing, it is natural to open up to new knowledge. Only by emptying can we learn...)
Hope this is of some use...
