Words have power
Words are a big subject and there is a very definite Objective to reach. Full Blown ownership and independence, joy and meaning, to your Be-ing.
Like the Nautilus, each segment of our life is a building block to who we are/become. What we allow to stay in those segment is our own personal choice. This Book is about cleaning out every segment to attain the you that you want to be.
Notice that you are not being referred to as a person. A ‘person’ can be used and traded, abused and contracted. A ‘Being’ cannot. It sounds hokey, I know. We all have been people so long we were trained to think of ourselves that way for many years. It will take time to relearn our power.
WE soften statements that are important to us by injecting the word, ‘Just’. Why? Why do we do that?
EX: I ‘just’ want to say that I agree with Ben.
Are you softening the blow with those that oppose Ben? Or are you letting those that oppose Ben know that you can be swayed to stand against him?
How about ‘I agree with Ben’. Letting all know that you have chosen.
Think about it for a bit. If you sit on the fence, then you will get splinters.
There are so many words that have been redefined and switched in order to control and change a narrative.
It is becoming apparent that when someone asks if you understand what they are telling you, they are, in fact, stepping above you to make you agree to stand beneath, enforcing their will by you giving them the right to. WE all use that word. It is so common. We are the only ones that can liberate ourselves from using it or being used by it.
‘I don’t comply to stand under.’
Going further to set a boundary
‘I don’t appreciate being asked if I will’.
Make a list of negative frequency words that are subtle and pass our radar. Bring them to the front of your mind and begin training yourself to catch them before they do damage.
Step 16
Create a list of words that 'bother' you. Rewrite the definition that your heart leads you too.
EX; Just, Understand, Signature, even leading sales words like ‘would you agree, yadda yadda yadda’’
Simple words like, yes, no and thank you, are very powerful and don’t always need to be expanded upon or justified. This is a large part of setting personal boundaries.
