  1. In this work, how far you get depends on how much you can bear. What you learn to bear is the reality of your own life, and the bearing happens in the body. B's last trip to the Swamp was unpleasant, and he was steadier in it than before. Book a mentoring session: negativephilosophy.com/booking

  5. Everyone who stays in the work goes back to the Swamp again and again, because the body carries a causal history. B's last visit was this past week. It was old material, and it was less sticky than it used to be. Book a mentoring session: negativephilosophy.com/booking

  9. Under B's pretense was a fear of inadequacy and unworthiness, and under that a fear of not knowing anything at all. What he brought into the work was exactly what was holding him back. He thought he knew a great deal, and he did not. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/Npkwg

  13. B wanted the practice to box his life in so he could figure it all out. That wish gives a false sense of control in a world that is overwhelmingly uncertain. When he projected a power of mind he did not have, he was telling on himself. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/O7hr7

  17. B had been a pretender to knowledge, and when he finally saw it, he and his mentor laughed about it. Seeing a pattern clearly is what lets you live without it, because the old responses stop showing up the way they did. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/wLSDv

  21. The first pattern B caught in himself was what he calls the wiseacre revelation. He used his mind as a sword and a shield, bored everyone around him and could not see it. It took him about a year to see it as a pattern. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/kljOH

  25. When B began sensing, he found that his thoughts had a physical address. Uncertainty went into his neck and stomach, keeping up a social front went into exhaustion, and inadequacy turned into anger at himself. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/7052O

  33. What B left out of his journal was the powerlessness and hopelessness under everything else. He was putting on a competent face for his mentor, and his mentor saw through it. Writing to show how far along you are turns the journal into a report for a judge. Book a mentoring session: negativephilosophy.com/booking

  37. B's first journal entries were long and detailed, mostly a history of his past written to bring his mentor up to speed. When he reread them, he saw that his mind had taken over the page and his body barely appeared in it. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/vCloD

  41. You cannot bring hope into this work without bringing fear in with it. Spinoza treats them as one doubt about one future. B came in carrying both, which is how most people come in. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/2gla2

  45. B hoped philosophy would let him work the whole thing out, or armor him against the world. He suspected even then that it would not, and he can see the folly in it now. The Swamp does not hand you a finished account of your life. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/Wb8Hh

  49. Friendships, relationships and every high-striving ambition had gone sour for B. He had no enthusiasm left and was running on the momentum of the life he had already built. Most people enter the Swamp in some version of that state. Book a mentoring session: zurl.co/kYF47
