I like your approach. (Incidentally I've been a martial arts person for countless years.)
But I must say that the chances of "cleaning out the psychogical crap" are essentially nil. But we can begin to see who or what has this psychological crap.... not that there's anything wrong with having it in the first place; Who makes the rules anyway? The "best" way is to simply use intellect and intuition in tandem, act on it, and see what comes of it. The cop with integrity does this. In fact we all do it; when we meet someone, we know almost immediately who or what we're dealing with, although we more often than not deny what we're seeing or hide from it. Human stuff.

I've gone through the stages of: 1. being an asshole who attacks the wrong people, 2. being too self-critical and guilt-ridden to take any actions at all, 3. accumulating some evidence that my currently planned actions would have been the right thing to do, 4. actually finding that I can take action and do some good without messing things up. > So in fact there's nothing to do; no action that can be taken.

And so we all have to clean out our psychological crap that distorts our view of the world, THEN do whatever needs doing. Analogy: a corrupt cop will probably jail innocent people while for some reason ignoring fellow criminals. But a cop with some integrity will have very little trouble leaping to the right conclusion and leaping into action. (((((((((((((((((( ( ( ( ( (O) ) ) ) ) ))))))))))))))))))) William J.
