Week 17HJ webbie is so, so good. It’s a real opportunity to get face-to-face with myself and acknowledge my self-sabotaging tendencies for good.
“What am I hanging on to so hard that I do not want, that prevents me from having what I do want?”
In truth, I missed the live webinar and just watched the recording 2 days ago, so I haven’t sat with this question for long, but it taunts me. I don’t have the answer yet.
It will probably take considerable time during a Sit where I can calm my mind and body and really think about this.
The Sit has become incredibly productive lately. Well, not always during the Sit, but often right after. I have all kinds of ideas pop into my head – ideas for things I need to do today, ideas for plans in the future and everything in between. I almost feel like an idea factory sometimes!
The Sit has become the first priority in my “workday,” and it often feels counterproductive. After all, I have lots to do! But I have learned over the last 18 weeks, that this dedicated time is having a far greater impact on my future than I realize.
I keep thinking about Mark J on virtually every webinar talking about the need to work on the world within…as the most important thing. So I’ve taken him seriously and I make sure to do my morning readings and Sit before diving into the work of the day.
And I keep remembering from Og, Scroll IV, p.70,
“I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink into a grain of sand. Henceforth I will apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.” Og Mandino, The Greatest Salesman in the World



I hear you Amy. Thank you!
Loved this post, Amy! You perfectly capture the tension between “doing” and “becoming.” Your commitment to The Sit is inspiring. 🙌
Amy, I loved how you’re sticking with the deep inner work to answer the question. Congrats on your productive sits.
