Commitment
- 1.
Perhaps the highest commitment we can make to others, as well as to ourselves, is to commit to being fully conscious and present in the moment. Any state that is less than this soon becomes apparent. If we cannot be committed to the present, what hope is there for an ongoing commitment to the future?

Communication Responses

Comparison
- 1.
Comparing others and ourselves is an exercise in futility. We may aspire to the heights we see in others, but the only true comparison we can make is an internal one, in which our conscience will reveal to us whether we are reaching for the highest potential within.

Completion
- 1.
Unless a relationship or situation is brought to fulfilment, release, or a close in some way, there will likely be an unfulfilled need pressing upon the psyche.
Compliance
- 1.
It is important for each of us to examine those things in life that we really believe we have to do. Things like habits, beliefs, or people such as authority figures, that we absolutely need to follow, in order to avoid being a bad person, or because something bad may happen. Yet if we don’t question such things, we are allowing ourselves to live with, and actually be programmed by, a conditioned mindset. Moreover, there can also be the fear that others, or even god may disapprove of us, if we don’t obediently do these things. This undoubtedly proves, that we have been conditioned to be compliant, to conform, and to obey. It also indicates how we have been conditioned by social, educational, religious, family, peer group and media pressures to compliantly, and unthinkingly, give our consent to the prevailing orthodoxy, whilst remaining psychologically asleep. (Please see contemplations on Conformity and Conditioning).
Compliment
- 1.
At the time we are given a compliment, to where do we receive it, to the ego or our true nature? Our true nature allows it to flow through us, whilst the ego either resists or becomes inflated.
