Our blockages
- The stories we have in our heads about other people, what’s happening, and ourselves.
- Our habit of staying in those stories instead of being present or taking action.

The narrative machine
- If they loved me they wouldn’t be so inconsiderate
- This is too hard, I don’t want to do this
- I suck, I keep failing, I am inadequate
- This shouldn’t be happening to me! This sucks!

Dropping the stories
- Notice when you’re stuck in a story.
- Notice that the story is causing you to be stressed or afraid.
- See if you can drop out of the story and into the present moment.
- When you go back to your story (because you will), try coming back to the present moment, without judgment. Stay longer.

Taking action
But you don’t need them to take action. Focus on the present, and just act. Take a “don’t know” mindset. Stay present and stay curious as you act. Stop thinking you know what it will be like ahead of time.
