Anybody else seeing them in their local library??

I've almost finished reading part 1 of the book. I'm really enjoying this book, but I have one question, out of curiosity.

Where did the concept of Truth, Love and Power originate? Is this concept a Steve Pavlina original? Or were there any philosophers who preceded it?

I really like it, before I'd read this book, I had this concept that all human relationships were a healthy balance of trust and power, and I think the truth + Love + power model is much more effective ]]> Personal Development for Smart People Book brendannz http://www.stevepavlina.com/forums/personal-development-smart-people-book/39396-question-steve-re-truth-love-power-concept.html http://www.stevepavlina.com/forums/personal-development-smart-people-book/39230-transformations-personal-power.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 00:37:07 GMT I have come to realize that in the world of the Pavlinian triangle my weak link is Power. In fact, I'm not even really clear on precisely what exactly my Power problems are. I know they are related to career, finance, and claiming my own value. What I'm not clear about is what I need to be doing differently or what I'm doing that's not working.

I'm interested in hearing how others who are challenged in the arena of Power have been making changes. What insights have you discovered? What actions have you taken? What has your process been like? Where did you start?

I'm very new to posting on forums and I welcome feedback on my posts.

Thanks for your contribution. ]]> Personal Development for Smart People Book fresc http://www.stevepavlina.com/forums/personal-development-smart-people-book/39230-transformations-personal-power.html http://www.stevepavlina.com/forums/personal-development-smart-people-book/38687-i-just-ordered-my-copy.html Tue, 27 Oct 2009 14:28:25 GMT it will arrive November 24th - December 16th. Quite a long time.. but it'll fly by for sure

Since I have to wait a while to receive it, could somebody please tell me;

Is Truth = honesty Love = connection with others and Power = umm, ability to influence, give

I guess if that's the model, I'm probably very well aligned with Truth, getting there with Love, and need to work on my power.. Or something along those lines..

I had this other model that relationships are built upon a healthy balance of trust and power. ]]> Personal Development for Smart People Book brendannz http://www.stevepavlina.com/forums/personal-development-smart-people-book/38687-i-just-ordered-my-copy.html
