Summary

This quote suggests that there are certain emotions or experiences that are so powerful and profound for us as humans that we resist deeply understanding or examining them. It implies that sometimes the intensity or complexity of our emotions can be overwhelming, and we prefer to simply accept and experience them without trying to dissect or analyze them too much. It acknowledges the limits of our understanding when it comes to deeply human and meaningful aspects of life.

The Inside-Out approach to personal and interpersonal effect

The Inside-Out approach to personal and interpersonal effectiveness means to start first with self; even more fundamentally, to start with the most inside part of self -- with your paradigms, your character, and your motives. The inside-out approach says that private victories precede public victories, that making and keeping promises to ourselves recedes making and keeping promises to others. It says it is futile to put personality ahead of character, to try to improve relationships with others before improving ourselves.
