Fighting least effort: part 2

Fighting Least Effort: part 2
I am looking at this trip to the Chopra Center more as a preventative medicine journey then a “oh I’m so sick and I need help” kind of a trip. It is an action that I think is moving with least effort. I am not going to let myself get to that point hopefully anymore if I can understand the flow of least effort. Let’s say my eye sight is getting worse and I need a new prescription, but decide to ignore the problem. That is fighting least effort just like it would be if I am starting to notice that problems are starting to brew in my gut and just go on like there is nothing happening, waiting while things deteriorated. People fight least effort all the time in jobs that they don’t like, or in a relationship that deep down they know is not right, it is a postponement of what is sure to come when you fight least effort. I do not know why when I come home from these Chopra Center trips I let things get all crazy again, but I do know I have control over whether I let it get to the point that it affects my life.
Home to me feels like when I used to ride a trail bike years ago there would be deep ruts that were left behind because of people riding in the same path over and over again. I would try to keep out of the deep ruts but seem to always slip back in. It is a constant fight to stay out of the negative ruts we have built over the years, but the more and more we become aware that we are making that wrong choice and replace it with a better choice the sooner better and stronger ways will begin to be created, I hope:~)
