Great post. I especially like step 7, cultivate a beginner's mind. My daily mantra is "what can I learn". It looks inward, not outwards and never disappoints in terms of self knowledge.
So glad you found it valuable, Pat, and what a wonderful mantra! If everyone approached life with that attitude, people would be constantly learning and growing.
Isn't that what we're here for? By the way, add to your reading list The City and the Stars by Arthur. C Clarke. I think you'll find it interesting and very very prescient.
Really? I think many are. Based upon the masks I see and people I know who still watch and yet dont follow it (family). Cant get rid of time old habits.

One of the best things I ever did was to get rid of tv over a decade ago.
Congratulations, Pat! That’s Step #2 in my 12-step recovery program from menticide:

Thank you so much for the rec, Pat—I added it to my Audible wishlist along with your book!

Hallelujah for that.
