The Deep Evaluation
"The deep evaluation is really an evaluation of what you are giving your life to and what you are assigning in life to be your chief influences, for every relationship represents an influence. This power of influence is very significant, but most people are not aware of it or its consequences." [1]
"It’s important to review your fundamental circumstances. Are you living in the right place? yes or no. Are you with the right people? yes or no. Is your form of work appropriate for you now at this time? yes or no. Are your hobbies or other activities appropriate and identify them each? yes or no. Write down your responses. If there are things to reconsider then ask yourself, 'Is there something I need to do about this now?' yes or no." [2]
"The deep evaluation is a process of discernment and release. You are discerning what is really important and releasing that which is not important. You are changing your relationship with things, with people, with places and with engagements. In so doing, you are changing, on a subtle but increasingly powerful level, your relationship with your mind and your body. Here you are gaining strength and learning to become inner-directed rather than merely being outer-directed."[3]
