Physician heal thyself is an old and true saying. It speaks to the propensity in human affairs for me to harp on what is bugging me. If its buggin' me, then its cuz I got a problem.
Now I got no problem with aggression or coercion. I don't feel coerced and I'm just not a very aggressive person. Furthermore, I don't even believe coercion is possible. I always have a choice in how I react or what I do in any given scenario, if somebody tries to coerce me, it is a sort of problem - by which I mean an exciting and interactive opportunity to indulge in a little unexpected creativity - but uppermost the choice is mine on how to react to coercive pressure. Most often I erase the coercive pressure by deciding that I really want to go that way. Sometimes its good to get pushed out of one's statically held inclination. Sometimes I smile and nod and do what I was gonna do anyway and find that the threat dissapears once its object is thwarted. Like I said, lots of opportunity. So you can't really coerce me. I haven't been coerced in years. So being so autonomous and all, I really noticed an irony in these NAP posts by Nick, which is "Man, you are really aggressively pushing this thing." Kinda funny when you think about it. Or like RMP sez "Nobody is fanatical about the sun rising, you're only fanatical about matters you hold in doubt."
