We all evolve from thinking to doing and being, each time we learn skills and apply them in life.  Yet, people tell me they find it easier to follow this thread back after experiencing the process.  The perceived difficulty comes in how daunting it can seem to reconfigure innocent perception.  Well, the buck stops here.  Let's examine some erroneus reasoning that may hold you back from taking steps to alter the ways you understand yourself and the world:

1)  "I can't, I won't, I shouldn't..." Its unwise to accept any reasoning if you have to fiddle with your basic frame of reference or values in order to justify it.  Sounds like you make excuses based on what someone else has conditioned you to believe.  Learn to assert yourself in ways that counteract why you feel you may be wrong. 

2)  "It wouldn't be good for me."  Says who? You don't know yourself as well as you think.  Persecution often results in efforts to justify misperception.  Why would you do this to yourself?  What you haven't done or are unwilling to do may be worse.

3)  "I don't have time."  Priorities, priorities.  How you spend your time reflects what means most to you on deeper levels.  Did you ever think time might have been created just for you to learn?  Confidence won't be developed fully until you do.

4) "It would require sacrifices."  Any talk of sacrifice arises solely from fear and has no place here.  If you sensed you had everything, you would be incapable of sacrificing.  Associate efforts to better yourself with strength, not weakness.   

5) "I know enough."   Enough is a word to remove from your vocabulary. You only know when you cease to ask questions.  Perception is temporal.  True perception is the basis for knowledge.  Any difficulties you experience are because you don't yet know yourself.  You see in many ways because your current perception involves interpretation.  Lessons can be learned from every single error in judgement.
