Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity." W. Clement Stone "Keep your fears to yourself; share your courage with others." Robert Louis Stevenson "Courage is what it takes to admit when you are wrong." Michelle C. Ustaszeski "To become emotionally mature, children must learn from failure and face the consequences of their poor choices. As parents, we must develop the courage to let it happen." Jacquie McTaggart "Take chances, make mistakes. That's how you grow. Pain nourishes your courage. You have to fail in order to practice being brave." Mary Tyler Moore "A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done." Vince Lombardi "All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination." Earl Nightingale "All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them." Walt Disney We all have a desire, a dream, a need to be. But to find it takes courage to avoid conformity. Michelle C.

I always listen to Brian's PNotes or another talking/study MP3 while on my hour walk. I use Neuro Programmer III generated entrainment MP3s. For sleep, I put the earbuds in using Isochronic sub delta waves, which is supposed to enhance healing of aches and pains (I'm 50yrs old previously quite lazy). The buds come out during the nite. Upon first waking, I turn on a wake up compilation using 18hz Isochronic tones and binaural beats which gradually rises for thirty minutes. I just started this a week ago for the first time, but my mind seems more calm and focused. I have yet to venture into the fully awakened quiet meditation. I'll do it in the morning. I'm a bit intimidated that I'll go crazy just focusing on my breath for thirty minutes. I'll let you know how it goes.

I understand the refined varieties is a definite no, but how about the sugars from fruit? I'm getting mixed reviews in what I have read.

Loved it! Turning up the volume on my nutrition. Truly reinforces my instincts and motivates me to master the nutrition much like your awaking earlier. Rock on.... back to work.

I appreciate your point more and more each day as I try to embody my 100%ers. I am still honoring my rituals without exception, but only during the day. The day gives me a bit of latitude to do my things. Is it mastering the practice itself or pursuit of perfection of the practice that will give us the mastery that we are working for????? I'm way to green to have any idea?(running to re-read Mastery). Today, I just do the work, do it well. One of my mentors told me today that we need to do God's will. I asked what that really meant. His answer was to do my best, with what I have, in greatest service to my current life. I am still pondering this one during my next meditation!

Every share has a nugget that is meaningful. You are right on! I am "shadowing" and Brian is doing a great job balancing. I need to get back to "my work" and recognize the selfishness of my comments as we are all at different points and have different messages to receive.

For the last month, I've been eating fish + vegan (pescatarian or pescan?). I expressly honor my hunger, eating only when my body asks for food. I am finding my natural feeding set points at 3pm and right before dark. Is this close to what you find in nature, as we are animals. If both meals small, I will eat during the night. If I graze until dark, I can sleep through the night. I tip my hat to source by this acknowledgment to nature.

You've really helped me gain clarity so I may diligently, patiently, persistently and playfully start working on closing my integrity gap. Through my involvement in a couple of improvement groups, I have been reflecting on suffering caused by get stuck by clinging to the old ideas... even though getting stuck brought me to you. :-) Well then, I'm exactly where I need to be! I amazed by the power of "group sharing experience" . Until now, I was always looking for that next nugget from some book. I work with people looking for the "secret" all the time. The test of time has proved to me that if you do the work, and keep coming back to listen to learn and share to help your fellows really does work if done diligently, patiently, persistently and playfully (insert choirs bursting hallelujah) for you B!

Any resources will be appreciated!
