Your Pre-Flight Checklist:

  1. Differentiate between my ego self and my essence self. In essence, I am God, I have no limitations, and we are all one.
  2. Phrase and observe my experiences as exactly that: experiences. \\u201cI experience anger,\\u201d not \\u201cI am angry.\\u201d
  3. Remember that the gift of awakening comes to different people in different ways. I don\\u2019t need to suffer to become closer to God.
