Catch and Drop the Compulsion to Talk Endlessly About Nothing

  • Posted: Thursday, January 31, 2019
  • Meeting: Wednesday, January 2, 2019

  • Duration: 2min 47sec

Summary
How much time and energy and breath would we save if we were aware of the part of us that wants to speak before it starts speaking? Much of the talking that we do is brought about by an unconscious nature that compels us to speak so that it can experience more of itself. By observing ourselves we can catch the anxious part of us that demands we say something in order to relieve the pressure. But giving in to that nature only increases the pressure and the anxiety. Drop the compulsion to talk about nothing, and bear the pressure instead of doing its bidding. Then the pressure will be used for a higher purpose and a heightened awareness of ourselves.
Topics Covered

    Barring those moments when we find ourselves in real physical danger, conditions, of themselves, have absolutely no authority over us. It's true. No event or circumstance has any power to make us feel one way or another. The only command any condition may have over us is that which we unconsciously surrender to it. And what we've given away, we can take back. Insight coupled with action is a...
