the First step....

Step 1

Allow yourself to want Imperturbability (freedom, happiness, love, etc.) more than you want, control, approval and safety/survival/separation ( the world, goals, money, etc.)

I was stuck. I achieved a few goals and then stopped releasing. When I went back to investigate why, I discovered I did not have step one firmly in place. Thinking back to some of Lester's writings in the Keys to the Ultimate Freedom, I remembered this being a common downfall.

I also remembered how helpful the book was when I first started on this journey. I went back and printed out the Keys book again, and placed it in a binder to make it more accessible. It will be my foremost reference along this journey. Too much noise is made about material gains with the method. These things appear to be the easy part. The "hard" part is getting beyond the material dream, to reality. Though in reality, this has to be easy also, if we would allow it.

I don't know what it is about that book. It doesn't say anything that I haven't read before from other masters. I was just re-reading some of Vernon Howard's writings yesterday, and I was thinking "Yes, this is it!", but I never had the depth of understanding until I read Lester's writings. His clarity is unmatched in my dream.
