0:00.0	I've been thinking lately about the concept of resistance,
0:15.0	and it's come to my attention yet again that my biggest problem is me.
0:24.7	My thoughts, my belief systems, the ones that I use to stop myself from moving forward. But let me go back a little. I generally look to nature
0:33.2	to see what's possible. And what comes to our development as humans, I like to observe plants as our
0:41.6	models. Plants grow. That's what they do. They don't get neurotic about it or try to sabotage themselves.

2:04.1	cold, heat, and other external challenges that cause us to stretch and grow. But what about the
2:12.3	resistance we create within ourselves? What about the fears and negative belief systems that we carry inside of us
2:21.3	that serve to tamp down our growth and slow our forward momentum? What can we do about those?
