Comments on: A Lack of Observation http://www.livingatcause.com/blog/465/lack-of-observation/ The Blog of Sean Stephenson Sun, 05 Sep 2010 10:43:21 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Danay http://www.livingatcause.com/blog/465/lack-of-observation/#comment-1320 Danay Thu, 18 Feb 2010 16:38:11 +0000 http://www.livingatcause.com/?p=465#comment-1320 Occam's Razor... the simplest solution is usually the answer. I love your simple and effective analogies. Your bright spirit shines through and I feel blessed to have found your site as well as extremely grateful that you chose to share your insights with the world. I look forward to your emails. I do have a few questions regarding this blog. Once a person learns to observe, then do you recommend constant observation as the goal? Or is this mostly to be used in crisis intervention? The reason I ask is that constant observation could seem paranoid in its worst extreme. Although I find the idea intriguing and see great possibilities, I also think that constant observation would be rather difficult. For some reason, images of buddist monks are popping into my mind. :) If your analogy is designed toward crisis intervention (a wonderful tool in action, I know from experience), do you recommend a trigger such as 'When I bite my nails, I will step outside of myself and calm down.'?

This is a truly difficult thing to do. You are right, through practice and observing ones self you are more able to live in the moment. The Stop watch idea is also brilliant, I had never thought of doing that. I will give it a go. I love the fact that we spell our names the right way,(oops, a little ego there) and we share a passion with living in the moment, observing ones self, and having an attitude of gratitude. One fellow made a Wayne Dyer reference, I love Wayne Dyer, he has a brilliant way of teaching about all of us being of source energy. This is the understanding that all humanity must come to. We are divine beings having a human experience. I love what you have to say, and the way you say it, I will continue listening. Thank you Sean for your perspective. S. p.s.
