It's plain that a life which includes deep resentment leads only to futility and unhappiness.
Do you ever feel like you're fighting a losing battle with your own expectations? In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald dives into the tricky concept of battling illusions. Drawing from the wisdom of Alcoholics Anonymous, Joe explains how our attempts to bend the world to our will often lead to frustration and unhappiness. He highlights the fleeting nature of our triumphs and the inevitable downfall that comes with deep-seated resentment.
Joe emphasizes the importance of taking a personal inventory and sharing it with someone you trust as a crucial step toward awakening to the truth. He discusses how Step Three's prayer can open our eyes, but stresses that Steps Four and Five are essential for fully seeing reality. This episode offers practical advice on how to fight your own illusions and find a balanced, neutral stance in life.
