“Completely Free” and “Completely Competent”
I pulled a random book by Harvey Jackins off the shelf for bedtime reading. Following his mind requires all my mental facilities and reminds me of benign reality. Before I got very far, I found two questions that spoke perfectly to one of my current challenges:
How free are you to plan your life just exactly the way you wish it to go?
How competent are you to see to it that your life takes place just the way you want it to take place, after you have planned it?
If I agree to speak only from the perspective of reality, the answers have to be “completely free” and “completely competent.”
