What a great insight! And I think you are right, absolutely. <br /><br />It occurs to me to possibly put up a post and exploring this concept for those of our readers who don't visit the site very often and who don't get the benefits of the comments.Shirley Twofeathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911925862486389242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36048078.post-63540509926229451652010-04-07T07:55:19.890-05:002010-04-07T07:55:19.890-05:00I liked that this article points to humans being w...I liked that this article points to humans being wired to be honest! I knew there was good in everyone! Ha ha ha! I think one question needs to be, "What is dishonest?" For some people, white lies and evasive techniques come very easily because they are the type that survives best in a harmonious atmosphere. I see this a lot in reading palms. Crooked pinkies indicate fibbing...the more twisted the pinkie, the more apt someone is to twist the truth. But slightly bent often just means the person adjusts truth to keep peace.<br /><br />We can apply this to our project, I think. When we don't keep those promises to ourselves were we fibbing at the onset? Or is it that the need is simply to harmonize another area of our life at that moment when we must let that promise go?Karlanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36048078.post-42643826910148777562010-04-06T22:24:41.193-05:002010-04-06T22:24:41.193-05:00There are two things in this article that I found ...There are two things in this article that I found very interesting...<br /><br />1 - ...imagine making a promise when in fact, you know you would benefit from not keeping it. Would you keep it anyway?<br /><br />2 - So next time you ...(commit to something)... take a moment and ask yourself if you really mean it. You may be surprised to realize that you already know whether you do... or do not.<br /><br />And, by the way, I'm still keeping my "an attunement a day" commitment - and it hasn't been easy! If I wasn't the person who came up with the idea of keeping a commitment for 30 days - I'd probably be skipping days here and there!Shirley Twofeathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911925862486389242noreply@blogger.com
