Advice to myself from my journal four days ago đź““
Feb 10, 2022
“How do I get out of…” / “how do I fix” / “how do I change her” are broken frames.
When I assume there’s something wrong with the world, e.g. I'm upset with something my wife says and I want her to change, the number of bad assumptions that mode of thinking is built upon approaches infinity ∞. So all the conclusions I draw from that are null. Advice to self: remember this. Seeing this may be enough to shift into a more honest and loving world. If I need another strategy, then shift into immediacy / being presence-awareness. Don't speak until I can feel my connection to love.
With love, Jordan
