"The truth is that there is nothing noble about being superior to someone else. The only real nobility is being superior to your former self.”
Symptoms are your body's way of letting you know that who you are "being" needs to be reassessed and reorganized.
So, what do I mean by that?
I mean that symptoms are your body's way of getting your
attention when how you're going about your life
needs changing...but you've been ignoring the more subtle
cues and signals.
Unfortunately, what most people do when they are
experiencing symptoms is try to eradicate them rather
than change either their behavior, their perception
or the structure of their life.
When you've outgrown your former self, in other words,
when your identification with a certain role ("I am" a....)
is stunting your growth rather than enabling it, you should
have symptoms!
Your body needs to let you know that you're playing too
small and it is time to exchange your old story, your old
behaviors or even your old body posture for a new one
that is congruent with your current level of awareness.
Your body is letting you know that your former self is no
longer enough and it is time to evolve.

Dear John,
Your blog is awesome. The clarity with which you write is inspiring. Keep it up, thanks for sharing your wisdom ! I won't comment always or often, but I'll sure come by and read you every week or so !
Isn't it funny that we seem to all have our hard times playing OUR big ? Whereas it is playing small that should be hard...
I love an old movie called Defending your Life. Basically, story is that when you die, you get judged on whether you transcended your fears and can move on to the better life, or if you should go back to earth in a new body and face back your fears again. I love that metaphor.
Hope I'll see you at the upcoming NY Transformational Gate and we get to work together towards evolving me !
