Courage in the face of opposition from others

Here is the rub.You have decided to have more control over your life.How do you respond to individuals who wish to control your life for their own ends?What I advocate in these pages is control over self realisation of potential but the context of course should be friends family and community (including global community). If you find that others are trying to control you for their ends careful thought should be given as to how to regain control of your self and life whilst maintaining respect for self and others. Do not be surprised if this is a difficult process.It is vital not to be too comfortable if progress is to be made.
