It was just really weird for me, to know that something isn't gonna work, and I just go ahead and do what isn't gonna work to make myself feel good about it, temporarily. I still have to clean up the mess I made.
I have some questions, I was wondering if you would be up to answer it... I read your recent posts that mentioned about esoteric knowledge, and that led me to wonder...
1. BASE was produced during the time you would call "a very bad time" for you, and I understand that in such times you would tend to make poor judgement and easily make errors. Do you think that could have an effect on the quality of products produced?
2. I definitely feel changes in myself, I wonder if they are for the better, but I am outside of my comfort zone and the things I used to do well (and I prided myself in these things) I now fumble. The things I used to do poorly in I now do better (these things are clearly good things). Is it temporary to "lose" some of my previous strengths in order to grow other necessary "powers" to become an entrepreneur, or will this be permanent? I want to highlight that these previous strengths I mention are useful to business, e.g. long-term thinking, strategic thinking, ability to solve complex problems (involving many variable factors).
3. You mentioned it could be resistance to forgiveness programming, can you elaborate more on that? I definitely have some people to forgive, and I would think, myself included. Some are very deep scars. In any case, I have found that I am more comfortable with these people now than before.
Thank you.
WOW. Did you honestly just ask question 1?!?
What possible answer do you think Shannon can give to that question that will improve the situation for you? Way to take personal responsibility!
