Seek more than you send…

Speaking, listening, and embodying truth in LOVE is one of the aims of our work. One day this will set us free, no doubt. Practicing this, however, will cause us lots of pain in the here and now. This is REAL, HARD, WORK. Spinning it, lying about it, and avoiding it are easier in the short term. AND, so is simply speaking it…

Remember, you can choose what is easy now and, one day, life is gonna get really HARD. It just is.

Or, you can choose what is HARD now and, life is gonna get a little easier. Choose wisely. Your choices have consequences.

When it comes to practicing truth in LOVE, choose the harder option of practicing the listening piece first. Seek the truth first. Seek feedback first. Seek to hear how you can get better. Seek to listen for what others are really trying to tell you through their lengthy blather. Seek out a few truth tellers before you get busy trying to become one.

Remember, 80% of the truth in LOVE recipe comes from hearing more truth. We tend to miss this ratio. We get so jazzed about finally having the courage to “talk” straight that we forget that talking involves both speaking and listening.

Get your ratios right. Seek more than you send.
