I liken the process of transforming habits to turning a cargo ship at sea. A large vessel with that much momentum can’t make sharp turns. However, a one- or two-degree course correction of the rudder, if held steady, will take that ship in a very different direction over time.

I am going to start with Step One. We admitted we were powerless - that our lives had become unmanageable.

The first step is to admit there’s a problem. As I walked through an ICU full of patients dying despite the best care we could give, I listened to other people saying it was a hoax. I cry for my patients have died and for the many who will die because we refuse to admit we have a problem.

The sensitive, mindful heart perceives value and worth in all things. It does not rely upon drama or intensity to feel awake and alive, but draws upon receptivity, stillness, and a present moment wholeheartedness.

If we cultivate awareness enough to step back a bit from simply reacting, we can insert a gap or a pause before being carried away. In that little gap there is the freedom to respond in a fresh way, less predetermined.

Take the attitude that there is nothing in your experience that you need to control or fix, and you’ll be available to experience the perfection that is always there.
