Excessive of reason and logic.  When we need to venture outside of our heretofore limited ways of thinking and being.

So now we get into some of the really hard parts. The tricky, really creative stuff that is seemingly beyond things that we before thought we had little or no choice about.

Remember "reasonableness" in Erhard Seminar Training (EST) or the Forum?

How it was about believing thus and so and making them so by believing that they were reality? And how on the other hand we could take responsibility for making them the way we wanted them to be.

Just read something from Stephen Covey that struck a note for ME. Maybe it will for you as well.

"The word proactive means more than merely taking initiative. It means that as human beings, we are responsible for our own lives. Our behavior is a function of our decisions, not our conditions. We can subordinate feelings to values. We have the initiative and the responsibility to make things happen."
