Description
Getting Real is all about rediscovering who we really are, and living our life based on that reality rather than on the one our minds often create for us. Though we hate to admit it, our day-to-day self-image can be a very skewed drama based on fears, projections, misperseptions, misinformation, and, well, bullshit. There's just no better word for it. If our live's are bogged down in B.S., then it's almost impossible to be real about ourselves and/or about the people and the world around us. So Getting Real is actually just a new approach to that mirror we are often so prone to avoid. It's not about our being wrong, or bad, or even deliberately dishonest with ourselves. Instead, Getting Real is, about training ourselves to recognize and reject the B.S. that often seeps into our lives.
