R.O.G. Takeaway Tips:

• Notice what you select from the "stuff".
• Acknowledge that your selection begins to formulate a truth for you.
• The "truth" manifests into a story or perception of the situation.
• The story becomes a belief about how things are. 
• Have the courage to go "back down the ladder" when needed.
