A subscriber left me a rather breathless phone message

Jett, I swear that writing Tenacity Notes has caused you to condense your not inconsiderable wisdom. This is deep stuff. Have no expectations. Have no preferences! No preferences?!?! Wow. Ooh, you ask a lot, but I love it! Bring it on!

Let me tell you something -- and you know me, you know I have no patience for BS, mine or others -- but let me tell you that I have never known such freedom as I've experienced by letting go of my expectations and my preferences. My good woman, this is hot stuff!

Let's review

You have:
* recognized that expansion is your natural state
* practiced joy and passion as the essential qualities of your life (performance)
* practiced catch, release, and celebrate
* examined your defenses
* given yourself permission to be the one you suspect you're capable of being
* been perfect, as Earth is perfect
* been impeccable for a day
* noticed what makes you happy
* released expectations
* let go of preferences

So how goes it? Let me know how you like Tenacity Notes.

I quite enjoy sending them.

You've practiced having no expectations. (Tenacity Notes, August 4)

Now it's time to practice having no preferences.

Try it for a week: to the best of your ability, have no preferences.

Tie a string around your finger so you don't forget. And when people ask you about the string, tell them!

Preferences and expectations bind you to the past and to the future.

Preferences and expectations cast shadows on the present.

Expansion is your natural state.

Desire is a function of expansion.

Do you know what makes you happy?
