You hit it on the head.<br><br>Our instructors in Aikido teach us that we won't always be in a constant state of awareness, but we should be able to instantly arrive there - or choose when you are "there".<br><br>The only 'constant' is change, and survival depends upon your ability to be like water :-)<br><br>Thanks for comments, and keep 'em coming!changeforgeSun, 01 Jun 2008 20:59:08 -0000http://www.changeforge.com/2008/06/01/zanshin-a-mind-like-water/#comment-1486467GREAT SUBJECT<br>I do my best to practice this daily, at work and at home.<br>I think that's the challenge, is not only practicing the 'practice', but knowing the differences when you're not.<br>In my humble opinion it's much harder to realize your not doing it, as opposed to being in that constant state.<br>But I guess that's the real lesson. You never will be in any 'constant' state. Being able to adapt to how you change to the changes around you... I think.. would be the key.<br>Thanks for the post.Strong OneSun, 01 Jun 2008 15:29:42 -0000
