The Forest Perspective

People often talk about their moment of clarity when they shift into a higher awareness about how to tackle the problem. Some call it their "aha" moment. Some are less certain about what changes have come about but know something is different in the way that they approach a problem.This process of illumination is different for all, and as varied as there are people experiencing change. It's a very personal and subjective experience, but transforms both inner and outer environments in a profound way.How do you jump from "tree-to-forest" perspective in your own life? Concerning the important changes that you have made in your own life and relationships, what has the illumination process consisted of for you? How have you made the changes in your life that have brought you improved awareness and success?We know when we have achieved the forest perspective when things in our life (subtle or not) begin to take effect. Our loved ones respond to us differently. Maybe we feel less stressed. We can experience moment to moment happiness for once without mentally living in the future. Or maybe we can learn to stop being so hard on ourselves and develop a little more patience and gentleness.
