Labeling and diagnosis is a catastrophic way to communicate. Telling other people what's wrong with them greatly reduces, almost to zero, the probability that we're going to get what we're after.

We can never make anyone do anything against their will without enormous consequences.

Whether I praise or criticize someone's action, I imply that I am their judge, that I'm engaged in rating them or what they have done.

Please do as I requested, only if you can do so with the joy of a little child feeding a hungry duck. Please do not do as I request if there is any taint of fear of punishment if you don't. Please do not do as I request to buy my love, that, is hoping that I will love you more if you do. Please do not do as I request if you will feel guilty if you don't. Please do not do as I request if you will feel shameful. And certainly do not do as I request out of any sense of duty or obligation.

We are this divine energy. It's not something we have to attain. We just have to realize it, to be present to it.

With every choice you make, be conscious of what need it serves.

Keep in mind that other people's actions can never 'make' you feel any certain way. Feelings are your warning indicators.
