Upgrade Your Teachability (WisePassion #1)
|
|
Your willingness to discover in all life experiences, pearls of great value about personal authenticity, connection with others and serving highest good. Your willingness to learn things you did not know about the part you play -- and don't play -- in each life situation, even if this means opening to ways understanding that stretch beyond assumptions you make and beliefs you hold. |
| Teachability Dimension | Teachability Dimension Descriptions | Best Resources Page Link |
| Willingness | Your receptivity to finding a way to live, love and lead that is better than what your survival and redemption Plans can provide. Willingness is your openness to learning and your best antidote to wrong use or over-use of willpower and defensiveness. | Go! |
| Self-Responsibility | Accepting accountability for how your intentions, interpretations & choices affect the life situations you attract, and determine how you understand and respond to them. The opposite of self-responsibility is entitlement. Self-responsibility is your best antidote to victimhood, blame and making excuses. | Go! |
| Spiritual Surrender | Opening your heart to a wiser and more helpful source of input than your own best thinking (i.e., your ego). The two things that tend to block surrender are arrogance and fear of humiliation for being wrong. Surrender is your best antidote to the self-destructively high pain tolerance that your survival and redemption plans require. | Go! |

| Book | A Course In Miracles | Perhaps most profound and far-reaching resource I have ever found on developing impeccable self-responsibility. It was brought forth by Dr. Helen Schucman and Dr. William Thetford, two now-deceased research psychologists at the prestigious Columbia Presbyterian teaching hospital in New York, beginning in the 1960s. They chose to officially remain anonymous because they believed the information was far wiser than they were so you will only find the name of the publisher on the cover: the Foundation for Inner Peace. | Buy through Amazon.com |
