APPLICATION
THE NOTION OF GROWTH
175
insight into broader and deeper meanings of this world. Become aware that these sudden breakthroughs give you vital information about the many dimensions of consciousness hidden within you.
Remember the emotions that accompany these insights, these breakthroughs and try to re-experience your feelings when they happened.
As a result you will experience more comprehensive understanding. It will stabilize and become a natural feature of your life.
2 - Go for the higher choice
If you can choose between a comfortable and an uncomfortable path, - choose the uncomfortable one, that's the right one for you.
See, you already know the comfortable path, because otherwise how could you possibly recognize that it is more comfortable. What we already know always feels more comfortable. It is the unknown that makes us feel awkward and uneasy. It is always the unknown that requires considerable more energy to face than the familiar.
Chose the uncomfortable path because it will lead you out of the known circle of your life, - it is the one that will break your boundaries, - it is the one that will expand the envelope in which you move.
3 - Really carry out what you intend to do
Initiate the actions you want to experience. Intentionally put yourself into the positions where you will really meet the challenges you decided to face.
