Write down what you want; write down why you want it. Let it sit. Think about it. Write it out again. Commit yourself to this result.
Write it out, think it out, write it out...is a technique that works by peeling back the layers of the onion that is us. The first few layers are pride and vanity, soon followed by self-image, programming left behind from our childhood, fantasies, dreams and ultimately we get down to who we really are, and what we really want.
This is a fundamental part of the GroupSync program. Taking a written bus that arrives at who we really are. Letting the systems that we create drive our efforts and relationships for a while, then riding (re-writing) that bus again for an even clearer picture of who we are and what we want to do.
Using this method in a group has particular power to create commitment within the group.
