Review: A Serious Involvement
Summary
is about bringing positivity and energy into endeavours. Looked at independently apart from any specific endeavour it appears to be about a sense of being involved and committed to dealing with a challenging situation apart from any particular plan of action or certainty of success.
The lowest 3 levels appear to demand a degree of courage: the courage to try, the courage to use personal beliefs, the courage to face realities. Add in participation, and the lower pole of the internal duality can be described as a «courageous involvement». This pole assumes perseverance in participation.
The upper 3 levels appear to demand that the involvement becomes a «serious commitment»: initially despite risks and with the expectation of some tangible or intangible gain or manageable loss, then through continuous reflection and periodic systematic learning, and finally via a trust that involvement is the right attitude. This pole assumes continuance of participation.
