THE NEXT-MOST POWERFUL QUESTION......

Alongside "What am I?"
The next most powerful and creative question I've ever asked (so far) is --

WHAT IF.........?


Actors know all about this one ;
They call it the "The Magic 'What-If...'"
It's the basis of their work
Of creating another reality.

When used in everyday life
"What-If"  can be
Magical and liberating,
Solvent for the stuck:
It is the harbinger of Possibility..

To openly and successfully stand in a "What if..." question
You have to be ........
  • fed up with a life of limitation; or
  • looking for a new experience; or
  • willing to entertain and test-drive a possibility other than the one you're stuck in; or
  • voluntarily disposed to give up clinging to the 3 "R"s -- Rigidity, Rightness & Resistance; or
  • ready to create yourself as able; or
  • eager to allow existence to be "more-than" (what you can comprehend right now.)
For example:

"What if --
  • there's another way to look at/experience this?"
  • my view of this is distorted or incomplete?"
  • I'm mistaken?"
  • I let him/her be right?"
  • there's more to this than I'm currently so certain about?"
  • the seemingly impossible is possible?"
  • what I want to happen were to really happen?"
What then?
