The book discusses several kinds of Will. Where as most of us are somewhat brainwashed to think there is only a Strong do or die Will from Victorian times he presents us with a choice of the Strong Will, the Skillful Will, the Good Will, the Transpersonal Will and the Universal Will. Using a match as &#8220;Will&#8221; Rogers recommends invokes the Skillful Will and opens the door to all the other types of Will we can access.</p> Tue, 27 May 2008 21:26:31 -0000 forums.thinkarete.com:503:146:667 waltww http://forums.thinkarete.com/forums/503/topics/146 <p align="center">&nbsp;</p><p align="center"><em>&quot;The best way to make a fire with two sticks is to make sure one of them is a match.&quot;</em></p><p align="center">&nbsp;</p><p align="center">~ Will Rogers</p><p>I love that.</p><p>How&rsquo;re your matches? </p><p>(You know, you mind, body, spirit?
