A couple of times I’ve talked about “The Piering Principle” which is, basically, that if you want to maximize your chances for success in life, you need to do two things: 1) Have well defined, WRITTEN goals, and plans for their accomplishment and 2) The ability to take action, despite the voices in your head. Let’s get that just a little more precise: well defined goals in all three arenas of life would give clarity on principle #1, and understanding the nature of the voices in your head is vital. Let’s call them “The Radio Voice.” This voice has certain characteristics: 1) It keeps on playing of its own accord. 2) It is so close to you that you don’t know it exists. It is so much a part of you that you do not even recognize it as being separate from you. 3) You listen to its advice which is often false. 4) You believe the radio is actually you when it is just a radio. There are many, many reasons to meditate, but one of the very best is to find the difference between “you” and the “voice.” When you do that, you will come closer to your original, basic, powerful self… -Steve Barnes
