'Ring a #BEL(s), before 'picking up' the #OAR(s), and setting #SAILS, for each step of your life journey' - Poh Sun Goh
Ring a metaphorical bell, or bells [#BEL(s)], before the start of any action, or step in your life journey.
Pay attention, to yourself first (I will pay attention to myself first) as #Observer, before taking #Action, to achieve a #Result. Modifying actions in response to results is first order learning. Focusing on our role (my role) and position as observer in a life, interpersonal, or practice context again (1st), before modifying or taking further actions (with my / your #Body, #Emotion or #Language - #BEL) is second order learning. This process is transformative, in allowing us (me) to 'see' which 'oars' to select, and use. And when to 'raise the sails', instead of picking up 'by reflex' (the 'old' or 'engrained habit') of 'the oar'.
#Observe (the, your) role (#BEL) as captain, steersman, pilot, navigator, watch, oarsman, sailor, crew. Pay attention to the #Currents #Weather #Visibility #Winds #Rocks #Reefs #Land #Destinations. #Feel and #Decide when to #Flow with the #Currents, #Sail with the #Winds, and pick up the #Oar.
