Big wild truths
Keep listing until you get out of your own way
Today, begin by taking out a piece of paper that can be shredded if need be, and listing at least ten big, wild truths present in your life. It might take you a few to warm up so feel free to list as many as you like. And, I mean the kind of truths about which you might very well cringe very hard if said list were to be widely viewed (hence the separate paper that can be shredded if you like). Write and keep writing, and you’ll likely find that as you start listing more and more things, you start to open up and get out of your own way a bit; you stop listing the things you think you ought to list, and the things that aren’t really that much of a big truth, and slowly but surely you begin to open up and gain access to deeper and deeper things.
Pick one and write all about it, being sure to save the rest of your list to your main ideas file for another time. Let’s try.
