Autopilot

How often are you on autopilot - awake but asleep to the programming that's running your life?

We all move through various stages of awareness or consciousness in our lives, in each day.

Have a read of this short poem and see which chapter you feel represents where you are in various areas of your life.

I discuss levels of consciousness in The Inner Liberation Blueprint which is available as a free download on my books page.

AUTOBIOGRAPHY IN FIVE CHAPTERS by Portia Nelson

Chapter I

I walk down the street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I fall in.

I am lost … I am hopeless.

It isn't my fault.

It takes forever to find a way out.

Chapter II

I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I pretend I don't see it.

I fall in again.

I can't believe I'm in the same place.

But it isn't my fault.

It still takes a long time to get out.

Chapter III

I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I see it is there.

I still fall in … it’s a habit.

My eyes are open.

I know where I am.

It is my fault.

I get out immediately.

Chapter IV

I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I walk around it.

Chapter V

I walk down another street.
