A well-tended garden thrives, while a neglected one becomes overrun with weeds. The Mi-iMind framework likens the Me-Mind to a garden where intentional cultivation ensures growth and clarity.
• Weeds of the “I from We”: These self-conceptions crowd out the Mi-iMind, draining resources and stifling the emergence of clarity and process purposes. Identifying and removing these “weeds” creates empty space for the growth of ideal attitudes.
Example: The “I from We” constantly critiques: “I should’ve done this better” or “I’m not enough.” These thoughts, like invasive plants, choke the space for meaningful reflection.
• Cultivation Requires Patience: Just as gardeners work seasonally, building clarity in the Mi-iMind takes time and consistent effort. The key is to create space—emptiness—that enables willing-to-know-now iStates.
• Practical Takeaway: Observe your inner critic’s “weeds” without judgment and gently replace them with process-oriented insights.
