11/11/09 Examine the expressions on the faces of people you are are speaking to.  Look for something you had not noticed before.  See if you can learn more about yourself through this experiment.

11/04/09 Question your questions.  Examine the true nature of your questions, particularly about inner development, and see that often they have ulterior motives.  For example, catch yourself asking "how," when you are really asking "how can I get out of."  There are many more examples, find some.

10/30/09  De-personalize characteristics that you see as your faults. When you identify errors or shortcomings, cease to see them as yours.  Treat them as being visitors, not residents of the entity that you call YOU.  And then...watch how uncomfortable that is for you.  This will teach you a valuable lesson.

10/23/09 See how you are continually asking yourself whether you agree or disagree with everything you see, hear or read.  Decide to consciously avoid agreeing or disagreeing with anything and instead simply try to understand it.

8/20/09 Examine how you learn.  When you learn something new, examine its origin and epoch.  Did the knowledge come by way of another person or by self insight?

8/13/09 Discover prejudice by seeing how you judge people you do not like for making the same error as people you do happen to like.  See how you twist the circumstances in your mind as to not appear the hypocrite.  This will show you three false images you maintain.

8/6/09 Whenever you feel angry, find the fear that causes it.  Examine the fear to see how unnecessary it truly is.  Both will then leave you...if you truly want them to.

7/22/2009 Find something about yourself that you don't understand and investigate it.  Look not for justification or blame, but to the real nature of why it is the way it is.

7/9/09 Identify each worry and connect it back to the corresponding false notion of security that causes it.  For example if you are insecure, it is only because you have a grandiose image of yourself which is not being affirmed.  If you feel as though you don't have enough money, it is because you are convinced you deserve more, etc.

6/17/09 Pay attention to how you filter what you hear from any individual through the opinion you have of them.  See the fact that the same words coming form an entirely different person would have a different meaning to you.  This proves that you are not hearing the words in their pure form- you are hearing them through your own prejudicial filter.

6/11/09 Get to the truth about your pain including anger, self pity and confusion.  See that you hold onto it for one reason, you actually get a thrill from it.  Identify the actual pleasure you get out of those emotions.  Only when you see it, can you let go of it.

5/9/09 Take the action of inaction.  In some case where you feel you MUST act, simply do not.  Pay close attention to what happens when you do this.

4/29/09 Find a false freedom. A false freedom is something that you think is a freedom which is really a prison. For example, someone may say "I can speak my mind whenever I choose," but are really trapped by maintaining the identity that they are a person who always speaks their mind.

4/22/09 Through awareness, identify an emotional or security "need" which is really just a "want" and live without it.  See it through to the end, meaning, until you learn that you don't really need it.

4/17/09 During an activity by which you are captivated, such as watching television, games or listening to music, snap yourself back to reality quickly by looking around you and seeing where you are physically.  Pay close attention to how your mind reacts to such a change and how it feels to be aware vs. asleep.
