Before You Read This Book - by Elaine Before I read this book, I
tried other avenues to help me sort out the issues in my life and to
feel better. Since they were just short cuts, they didn't work
for me. They dealt with the symptoms, but not the core of the problem.
I was tired of feeling this way and knew something had to change in my
life. I’d heard about TOOS but hadn’t read it because before
I would agree to do that I needed information about this process.
In other words, I was being resistant and I didn’t know why.
I had to understand why I had resistance to a process intended to help
me. To do that, I needed to gather information, to ask questions.
When I did, I realized it was an old belief holding me back from reading
it. I was waiting for someone to fix me instead of taking the
responsibility to do it myself. It took numerous conversations
with someone who had read the book and helped me to see this resistance,
before I actually picked it up. |
