Living And Coping With Regret

July 16, 2009

Part Two of my response to Brian’s question deals with the issue of living with regret. What has taken hold, is that I’ve become sure I will always be sad about losing the family we had and how it’s taken so much from kids. I can’t imagine in any new life, not feeling the weight [...]

After the last post on authenticity, the overwhelming question seemed to be; how do you know of all the options, which one is the authentic you?

Authenticity Or Suffering.

June 19, 2009

I had an idea for a post I wanted to write. Then before I had a chance to write it I received this email, which gave the perfect setting for the idea.

I’ve only listened to the first 12 minutes (no time till the weekend for the full 90 mins.), and already I have an insight that explains something I’ve been missing. Part of my struggle has been doing something with the insights that should be game changers, but often don’t move me ahead in a way I would expect. In other words; knowing what’s wrong and still staying stuck with it. Just a comment from Rob about 10 mins. into the recording cleared up why that cycle exists for me. Listen yourself, but in summary he noted that ‘if you have nothing more important to strive for in your life, than to understand and remove the negatives, the mere desire to change won’t be strong enough to outweigh that motivation’. I took that to mean that you have a better chance of “moving on”, when you are careful to make what’s ahead more important than what’s behind. I’ve spent far more time looking back. It’s no wonder it’s become far greater than the life I want. I just have never put any meaningful and persistent action into chasing it in concrete ways. In thinking I needed to figure out and rectify first, I was never developing the foundation to build the life I wished for on. It seems logical that if ones primary focus is where you want to go and who you want to become, that the past which often seems to have so much power, would play a lesser role in the perception of self. I’ve got to chew on this.

This is an extraordinary article. Simply extraordinary. It gets right to the guts of the situation. Thank you for this.

That was very enlightening…I only wish I had read it sooner… as I have been more bent on being right and getting my way because I thought it was only fair and that I was right… now anger and resentment had consumed me… and has caused considerable damage to my family, my own self-esteem, and the man I was engaged to has finally given up on me… Now what?

Absolutely beautiful, Rob! The way you expressed your thoughts, it was just so simple yet so powerful. As I read line by line, I couldn’t agree with you more. As much as I believe and practice most of what you’ve written, I do know it’s hard to remind yourself of these things when feelings get hurt or if insecurities creep in. But this is definitely a post I will read over and over again when those feelings start to creep in for me. As much as I know most of what you’ve written to be true, it’s much easier to be reminded by other’s words when all else seems to fail. So thank you for sharing this. It was very inspiring! Blessings to you xo
