“In nature there are neither rewards nor punishments—there are consequences.” (ODAT, 28 May)
When I’m feeling punished by life or others, I ask myself:
- What decisions did I make that landed me here?
- What decisions could I make that would get me out of here?
- What action of mine elicited others’ response?
- What actions of mine would elicit a different response?
- Do I want change?
- Am I willing to pay the price?
