Join 📚 Christian Champ's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Christian's read, .
Without enough disruption in your life, you become trapped.
The only way to get out of this loop is through error:
When something doesn’t fit your expectations.
This happens naturally through contact with:
• information
• perspectives
• practices…
…that you could not have generated on our own.
They allow you to see what you could not see, precisely because they aren’t you.
This is why participation is structurally necessary for transformation:
It brings you into contact with information that you cannot reduce to your preferences.

Learning to listen, as I have done, helped me inquire into my own ways, to see my ghosts and programmed ways of being. Listening with an open, non-judging heart allowed me to learn when I’d had enough of the world and its harsh need to change me into someone I am not. That learned declaration of enough supports the grittiest, most equanimous expression possible: that as broken-open as I may be, I am enough. Just as I am, I am enough.
I also often ask my guests about what they consider to be their invisible weaknesses and shortcomings.
