Step 2: Become Willing to be Restored

There’s really nothing to do here just …

Be willing. Do the work, or don’t. The only requirement is to allow something better than your current practice to work for you. It is a secret skill called Allowing. It is so simple and subtle that giving it a name is probably too pushy. It doesn’t need to be named by you or me. It just needs you to … Cut It Out. Stop it. Knock it off. Take a break. And create a space in your heart that is totally empty but full of welcome.

Life already knows how to work. It needs very little help from you. In fact if you pay attention and stop trying to run everything and everyone and allow life to do what it is good at, guess what … well you’ll have to wait and see won’t you?

What you can do. Go to a meeting and listen like you you’ve never listened to anything before. Discover Listening. Go ahead and laugh. And since you’re at a meeting join a small workbook group and start working with others.
