PH,
In my recovery, I had to learn to let go of the absolutes in my thinking. My stinking thinking did not produce positive outcomes in my life.
I made a resolution to embrace uncertainty.
The black and white decisions, the good or bad judgements were limiting my thought processes. When I allow room for choices that are beyond my limited thinking, I am making room for my HP to show more options.
Stinking thinking was: If I do x, y, z - I will get a, b, c result.
However, I was limiting my choices because I was basing my choices of x, y, & z on my learned behaviors of my past.
Now I try to approach life situations with, "Huh, I wonder what options are available that I am not seeing? Maybe I should wait 48 hours and see if more is revealed."
Patience, more will be revealed. (I think I learned that jewel here at SR!)
