Why The Secret Is Wrong and why life is still astonishing without it |

Learn your life lessonsLife is a great teacher. Whether or not you believe there is some intelligence behind it all, the force of life is constantly teaching us.
But what you learn, and the meaning of an event, is as individual as you are. For example, you may have a close family, and your lesson may be how to live harmoniously with them. Or you may come from a dynsfunctional family, and your lesson may be finding the courage to stop relying on them and to live your own life. If we ignore our lessons, life will keep trying to teach them to us. But no self-help book can tell us what those lessons are. We need to work them out for ourselves. You can see what happens when lessons are ignored on a group level. When governments fail to take history into account they are refusing the lessons that experience teaches, and the results will not be good. What are your life lessons? Have you learned the main ones, or are there lessons you’re still struggling with? |
