I am not an agent acting on me. I am an expanding, changing organism. I am always in some “state.” I am a unitary whole. I do not have “parts.” I ache, anger, fear, love, frustrate, depress, bore, joy, pain, exhilarate, tense.

I am my body.

I AM.

TO OWN THAT YOU ARE THE SOURCE IS THE KEY TO RESOURCEFULNESS.

WE ARE ALL CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATE.

The Mind as an Instrument of Creation

People in groups can help each other to organize their lives as acts of creation rather than a system of “survival in spite of” their early childhood training. There is a way to use your mind to keep yourself from falling back to the neurotic survival skills of the mind. You do it by living into a vision of the future, creating in the present from the future, rather than having the present be a reaction to the past.

Creation in Community

A community of support for radical honesty is a living context of support for individual creation. Imagined projects become reality when shared in a community of committed listeners who speak and listen projects into being. The community of support for radical honesty also supports the practices that allow for the constant renewal of enthusiasm. We don't lead a creative life because we should. We live a creative life because of constant delivery from the frozen concepts of mind, so that we are called forth by vivid imaginings of what our creations will make possible. This empowers people to create individual projects they can point to as something they brought into being, as Robert Fritz says, simply because they loved the idea of it existing, and this makes a community of mutual love and respect possible. The skill required to play at this level of the video game of life is considerable.

In our little subgroup of this larger community of wisdom and compassion, we play at this work pretty much all the time. Here at the Center for Radical Honesty, we publish a quarterly newsletter, run a lot of workshops, write books, and do tours of various kinds. We work for each other on each others' projects. The Radical Honesty Rag, our newsletter, and our related E-Zine come out regularly to support everyone who has a vested interest in this work. These and discussion groups on the web keeps us up on the news that folks like us all over the country generate. People are invited to continue in the creation of an ongoing community of support for themselves by participating in the Course on Honesty, and the Course on Forgiveness and Creation that is held three or four months after that. Personal power is the result of personal growth. After learning to practice honesty, we develop skills in forgiveness. Then we have the power to create successful projects in life with friends in a community and help them to do the same. The ongoing Radical Honesty Community is organized around living as creators. Our primary mission is to create a world community of friends who support each other.
