Writing a final
definition is a matter of looking at the definitions that you wrote creatively
and deciding upon a definition that you are standing clear within yourself as
and then rewriting the definition in its final form.
Within this process you are looking to
make sure that the definition that you are writing in fact represents what this
word means as a living expression of itself.
Once you have
formulated a definition for your word you are able to ask yourself the
following questions to verify that your definition is clear and can stand as a
definition for life.
Here are the questions to ask yourself:
This is a grounding question, meaning
that when we redefine words we can become overzealous in the definitions that
we assign words and sometimes completely go off topic in the desire of wanting
the definition to ‘sound’ or ‘look’ good. This
question is asked to ensure that what we are writing down as a definition
in fact represents the word that we are defining.
Is
my definition free of polarities?
This question is asked to see within
oneself whether self has given this definition a value more than or less than
what it is. You can test this question by placing yourself as the giver as well
as the receiver of the definition of this word. If you see that you have
an experience of either being more than or being less than you require to go
back to the drawing board to look at what is required to make this definition
free from polarity.
Can
I stand by this definition into infinity?
This question asks you to let go of your
current life programming
and asks you to look whether the definition that you have assigned to this word
is a word that you are able to live in all contexts of life. A fun projection
to use here is for instance place yourself on Mars or on Venus and see whether
the definition that you gave holds while you are within a ‘different’ context.
Placing yourself in a ‘different’ environment where the ‘usual’ rules do not
apply assists self to see whether the definition that self gave the word is
clear of ones conditioned responses.
If you answer no to any of these 3
questions go back to the drawing board and rewrite your definition. Follow
through and answer
the questions till the definition that you had written answers yes to all three
these questions asked.
