17. Eight ways to self-actualize
1. Experience things fully, vividly, selflessly. Throw
yourself into the experience; concentrate on it
fully; let it totally absorb you.
2. Life is an ongoing process of choosing between
safety (out of fear ) and risk (for the sake of
growth: make the growth choice a dozen times a
day.
3. Let the self emerge. Try to shut out external clues
as to what you should think, feel, say and let your
experience enable you to say what you truly feel.

18. Continue…..
4.When in doubt, be honest. If you look into yourself
and are honest, you will also take responsibility; taking
responsibility is self-actualizing.
5. Listen to your own tastes. Be prepared to be
unpopular.
6. Use your intelligence. Work to do well the things
you want to do, whether that means finger exercises at
a keyboard, memorizing every bone, muscle and
hormone in the human body, or learning to finish
wood so it looks and feels like silk.

19. Continue…
7. Make peak experiencing more likely: get rid of
illusions and false notions; learn what you are good at
and what your potentialities are not.
8. Find out who you are, what you like and don’t like,
what is good and what is bad for you, where you are
going, what your mission is. Opening yourself up in
this way means identifying defenses - and then finding
the courage to give them up
