Do you have resistance to doing very simple things such as replying to an email, talking to a stranger, watching your own speech video or asking to be treated properly?
I have realized that mostly when we have a resistance, it is avoidance of “negative” feeling such as sadness, anger, rejection, etc. It goes like this … I do not want to do this because I do not want to feel ….
Resistance in general takes too much energy. Also, when we avoid certain feelings we are not living our life fully with confidence and joy.
How do we reduce our resistances?
1- Ask yourself what is the benefit of resistance and delay? Will the delay make the problem go away?
2- Ask yourself in doing the task is in line with your goals and your heart desires? Will it make you a stronger and more confident person?
3- If answer to part 2 is yes, do the task right away.
As you consciously question and remove resistances in your life, all your actions will be inspired action in line with your personal and spiritual growth and you will feel more alive.

I have cleared my conscience by responding quickly to anything that I find wrong. I have been even reprimanded for doing it! There is nothing more freeing than getting something off your chest rather than holding and letting it fester.
I haven't always responded to idiocy. Idiots don't even know it when you correct them.
