basic expectations

I had a major revelation this morning, as usual. The Solution training that I am working through has expectations at the core of the philosophy. By Kit 3, which is where I am, the concept progresses to something called Basic Expectations. These are expectations that come underneath ones you already have. For example, you might have an expectation that used cars tend to break down, and that you need to buy new. A basic expectation underneath that, is that you are unlucky.

To change your expectations, one must identify the old basic expectations, and then move towards the new basic expectations which you have also identified. Doing this identification is hard work, and even once you are there, the movement is hard as well. New basic expectations have an awkward feel, at least in my experience, and tend to have a bizarre and untenable quality. I have a short list of my own new basic expectations which I will list here. The revelation of this morning is, they seem suddenly far more tenable and the bizarreness has been replaced by familiarity and cameraderie. (Can you have cameraderie with a concept? I sure hope so).

Basic Expectation List
* Stability is a method of going about things. Stability is unseen.
* I need to provide a foundation of support to withstand the attacks of age, frailty, and overindulgence. I am sensitive and need support.
* I deserve respect.
* I am human, mortal, and there will only be time in this life to do my true work if I choose to make it happen.
* My capabilities are unique.
* I am always visible.
* My survival depends on hoe much I honor the information I get from myself (a trusted source).

The nifty thing about these new basic expectations is they each have a history. Just as you would invert the lie to find the truth, the old basic expectations are the inverted state of each of the concepts above.

I am so happy to be able to share the above and feel such confidence in the truth of it, which was not the case even just last night.
