We here in gestalt doubt if we can change ourselves that often just by an act of will.

We think instead that change can happen of its own accord once we have truly got to accept where we are/who we are. The difficulty is we think there are parts of ourselves we either don't want to 'own', or will not believe are a part of ourselves.

That happens nationally, too. e.g. while the Cold War was on, we in the West didn't want to know about our surveillance tendencies, for example.

Now the Cold War is long gone, suddenly surveillance has a defence - if you've got nothing to hide. We ARE now willing to own that part our society.
