Another thing is that it is ok to be kind as well as being a 'tough cookie' - busy yet finding time for reading without the old guilt thing that 'Ishould be doing something'.
Hope this helps - by the way Haakon, aren't the paraliminals great
Kind regards

One of the things I have learned about addictive behavior is that it makes one very rigid, so taking this course seemed like the perfect antidote to the problem of becoming rigid.
One thing I would like to know, however, is what does being rigid mean? This will help me to see areas where I am rigid, if I have them. In other words, I need to know what rigid behavior is and would also like to have an example of rigid behavior.
thanks, liz
#76 Rigid Behavior Will Kill You
"When alive, the body is supple, yielding.
In death, the body becomes hard,
unyielding.
Living Plants are flexible,
In death they become dry and brittle
Therefore, stubborn people are disciples
of death, but flexible people are disciples
of life.
In the same way, Inflexible Soldiers
cannot win (a victory) and the hardest
trees are readiest for an axe to chop them
down.
Tough guys sink to the bottom, while
Flexible people rise to the top."
-Lao Tzu-
I am guessing rigid behaviours are ones that we use over and over again without adapting them to new situations. I guess stubborn is a key word here, or unyielding. Trying to find where this applies in my own life.
Just thought I would share the google answer with you, in case anyone else is working on this course.
Looking forward to see some good deep self devolpment growth in the positive direction at a deep level.

I wonder which way is better - to listen to each CD multiple times before moving on to the next, or to cycle through them sequentially and then repeat the cycle?
The second way would give one a wholistic view of the process - this is just my feeling...
In a way I just feel that hearing paraliminals in a cycle, a new paraliminal every day, will give the brain too much information to handle over lets say too month.. I feel better on listening to the same paraliminals for a period of time, to get the energy flowing of that paraliminal.. and let it integrate without interference of other things... just the way I use them..
But maybe the other way, cycles, works just as fine..

Next I was rotating the paraliminals and glancing over the principles in the workbook or listening to different sections on the tapes.
Now, I am going back and concentrating on the first section Building your Foundation.
I dont know how long I should stay on this section and if I should listen to the first paraliminal with it or not. Currently, I am listening to the first paraliminal with it.
For today: Building Your Foundation.
Negative to be reduced: Problems at work, stay away from negative people. Watch blame and take responsibility for anger.
Positive to be enhanced. Get out more! Face anxiety attacks and take baby steps. For now, keep running, walking and smiling. Practice listening; share more.
Think I will fast track through this course than come back and go in deeper. Or could spend alot of time in depth on each level.
