I've been reading Michael Singer's book Untethered Soul and I loved these quotes, which remind me a lot of what you've said in this post:
"Life itself is your career, and your interaction with life is your most meaningful relationship."
"In fact, your thoughts have far less impact on this world than you'd like to think... They're simply making you feel better or worse about what's going on now."
I've loved your writings and followed you for 17 years Leo, love that you are writing this book in public for us. :)
Like @David Robinson, I immediately began to form a new section in my journal for this. The idea of mental constructs, and of working to alter my own, isn't new to me. But I love the idea of writing them down and being more systematic about practicing with them.
Helpful practice. Understanding how our constructs or beliefs shape how we view everything is immensely powerful. The game changer for me would be learning how to systematically incorporate a practice of noticing and questioning constructs into my daily living. I'm not sure that practicing for a week will make a big impact but could be wrong...often am! One idea that comes to mind is making it part of a journaling practice.

Love that you’re working with this deeply

Brilliant as always, Leo. Thank you.
