Mmm nice. I went through a similar progression in some ways and I feel like I’m tasting a step further which is something like “the issue people have is they try to use self-modification techniques they don’t have full buy-in for, and so resisting parts stop them from using those.”
And then the resolution goes something like, instead of intending to do “IDC” or whatever else, orienting to a stance of intending to do more like “whatever it takes to have an internal dialogue here that integrates all objections thoroughly and doesn’t dismiss or discount any”
Worth noting: my articulation above is coming out backwards from how I experienced it.
For me it was more like… I tasted something that felt like this thing, and then had immediate buy-in from all of my parts to iterate on the thing until it became capable of integrating all of them in their own terms. And the act of trying and iterating, in such a way, is kind of the thing.
