From Notes

 Goal setting vs.aim direction

1. Is my happiness dependent on having, doing, being, or others doing, being, or having blank, blank, blank, whatever it may be?

2. Has this person agreed within not to be happy until the goal is realized?

3. Would you be anxious to reach the goal?

4. Is to be anxious to have feelings of frustration and emergency?

5. Does this frustration and emergency result in bodily preparation to fight or run?

6. Does this produce internal conflict and stress?

7. Does it not appear that I have an unconscious motivation to be frustrated?

Escapes and substitutions. The following are automatic escapes from reality:

1. Drink.

2. Sex.

3. Religion.

4. Pursuit of education.

5. Distraction, such as worry and anxiety.

6. Civic work, doing good, helping others.

7. Political ideologies, race and creed.

8. Health foods, all other causes.

Do I create something as an escape?   Does this compound I’s problem as trying to escape the escape?

Does this lead to endless theories by those who profess to help with problems? Are these theories only more escapes? What is it that I want to escape?

A self originating being, a good guest, sees when to cooperate and when not to cooperate.
