When I am angry or depressed, do I tend to anchor these feelings on
a source outside of myself, or do I anchor them within?
Do I allow myself to sit with my emotions and watch them as
opposed to react to them?
Am I able to let go of negative emotions?
Can I see myself when I am projecting my emotions onto another?
Am I able to live in a state of consciousness?
Am I able to live in a place of trust and insight, or am I clouded by
fear, anxiety, and resentment?
Am I in touch with my essence?
Am I more of a “doer,” or am I able to “be?”
How do I engage in my own life? Does all my doing flow from
being?
Do I feel pressure to constantly fill my every day with activity after
activity, or am I able to sit with myself at least once every day and
get in touch with my inner stillness?
Do I engage in acts that foster my inner connection with myself, or
have I become so busy that I have lost this inner connection?
Do I constantly feel the need to judge and be in the space of mental
“doing?” Or am I able to simply and fully experience my
experiences with a state of neutral but awakened being?
What have I based the pillars of my parenting on?
Have I unconsciously based the pillars of my child’s success on
their ability to “do,” produce, and succeed?
