You Can Be More Comfortable
You might not realize that certain unrecognized personality traits that cause you distress can be changed, if you even think about them at all.
Problems that are Viewed as Givens
Aren't there certain situations that would make anyone feel irritated? Not necessarily. Do you feel nervous in certain situations? Doesn't everybody? No. Do you have a pessimistic outlook on life? You need not. These are all personality characteristics that are "givens;" that is, people who have these problems just accept them as part of life. They don't realize that they can eliminate them.
Problems that You are Oblivious to
People also have problems that they are totally oblivious to. A person may consider herself very kind without understanding that she is overly accommodating. Someone may behave selfishly toward others without realizing that he is not well-liked. And someone may be overly passive and too dependent on others for help. You probably have some characteristic that you don't realize is causing difficulty. Most everyone does.
That Includes Me
Having had an Inner Guide for many years, it has eliminated my major discomforts and problems, but it is apparently still working on my "givens." Just this week I had a new realization and a new shift in perspective. I've been trying to get a new sewing machine to replace my old one. I wanted a simple, light machine. I ordered one but when it came, I saw that it was cheaply made and didn't function well, so I returned it. I ordered a better one but when I tested it, something was wrong and it didn't work. I sent it back and ordered a third one, which has just arrived. Will this be the ultimate solution to my search?
In the past, I would have reacted to each failed purchase as a discouraging failure and, in fact, might have given up trying to get a new machine. But now, I view this attempt as a process. A failed purchase is no longer a minor disaster; it's merely a step along the way.
An Inner Guide Brings Easier Living
I've often described how an Inner Guide can eliminate discomforts and problems, and in so doing, lower your overall stress level. But it can also, as it lowers stress, just make your life easier. Give it a try! You can acquire your Inner Guide below.
