To have a breakthrough one must cause an Interruption for oneself.
Susie Bragg, Landmark Education Introduction Leader
I've stopped tolerating.
Stopped tolerating out of Integrities. And stopped tolerating Being Nice. This on-the-court choosing to stop tolerating is distinct from knowing out of Integrity causes unworkability, and Being Nice runs my life. Those knowings make no difference in my life or my Being Contribution & Adventure.
But when I catch myself about to say "oh its ok" when its not, or "I'll not say anything and just be nice & pleasant" when I know I should say the point that's really on my mind, or "I'll just suck it up and live with it" rather than hold someone to their promise or to do their job; and when I catch myself and I choose to stop tolerating how its going... Then my experiencing real breakthroughs in my life becomes possible. I experience my power, freedom, & self-expression when I speak-up and stand for Integrity & workability.
But don't believe me. Try it for yourself. Stop tolerating. Don't worry about being mean or nasty. You would be mean & nasty later anyway out of built-up resentment & frustration (esp. with yourself). And you can always clean-up and be overly nice if it doesn't work being straight & standing for Integrity...

Glad to see you back on the grid. I was wondering if you went off and got hitched and some girl was now running your life and she wouldn't let you come out and blog. Glad you are blogging again. I missed hearing about your adventures. Keep up that straightness. Be well, John
