Morgan Freeman & Not Forcing Change

from The Heroic Minds Podcast Hosted by Ben Fanelli

Morgan Freeman acting as God in the movie Evan Almighty hits us with some wisdom. I tie this wisdom together with Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Flow and Performance in work, sport, and life. "Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?" (DBT) "D" in BT being Dialectic which is in simple term between or amongst the opposites, grey between black and white.
