Approaching pleasure, Avoiding pain, that’s what we do naturally…what the nervous system does for us.

But what if you’re caught in a bind, and what you used to do for pleasure, causes pain?  Finding the new pleasure involves risk and fear: pain.  The mind creates confusion because it doesn’t know what to do and is afraid of doing the WRONG thing.  The wrong thing is what you must never do.  Fail and actually hurt yourself, or fail and be SEEN as a failure…either by others, or just yourself.  that’s painful too…but which scenario really threatens your survival?

What would you do, if you knew could could not fail???  Can you even allow yourself to think about it?
