We think paying attention is more important than belief.

We have concluded that growing up doesn't just happen once and then you are through with it, but has to recur over and over again on a daily basis and that there is no end to growing until death. And we know it is futile to try to do anything about that.

We know that our minds categorize and re-categorize our experience, and therefore repeatedly recapture the space of freedom that comes from identifying ourselves as noticers. The mind likes to narrow its options and close itself to new information. Because the mind is always attending to categories from the past, we know it must be repeatedly

Then we choose, instead of living a life of reaction, to live from a vision in the future.

When we learn to live in the present we are no longer chained to the past.

We have become aware of ourselves as noticers, and so we don't give a shit anymore about maintaining the story.

But the truth is we didn't know shit from Shinola about what was actually going on and still don't.

We all have a psychological and cultural history. They are fiction.

Our work is to live the good life of consciously creating with a bunch of friends who love each other and continue to tell each other the truth in order to continually overthrow the antiquated structures of the mind and institutions of society, and build new ones, to bring about a world that works for everyone today.
