Self-sacrificing...

Here is some more wisdom from Scott Barry Kaufman in a Scientific American article.  This man likes to do research to back up what he says.  I like that, it is not just an idea but one that is looked into and taken apart.
In his research, he has found that the relationship between having a quiet mind and self-sacrificing self-enhancement are non-existent.  In other words, we don't need to show up as appearing compassionate, we must be compassionate.
Here are the 4 categories to look into to see if you jumped the tracks. //\\
1.  Sacrificing for others makes me the better person.
2. I try to show what a good person I am through my sacrifices.
3.  I like to have friends who rely on me because it makes me feel important.
4.  I feel important when others rely on me.
I can find myself in some of these statements.  I have landed in the dirt face first because of them. 

LENS neurofeedback helps to clear the mind of clutter.  We begin to feel encouraged and able to face the world with a clearer mind.  One that has loosened up and can skip the over the old obstacles.
