I’ve danced with Hawkins’ work for a while now — but your articulation of recontextualizing reality as practice hit different. Especially this:
“Your desire to evolve must be greater than the desire to indulge in the rewards of your upgraded paradigm.”
That line alone reframes the entire path. It’s the surrender that stings, isn’t it? Even as life improves, ego finds clever ways to anchor us in “better” rather than “freer.” Your framing helps remind me that expansion often comes disguised as loss, friction, or confusion.
This one landed deep, Scott.
