“Okay. Do you ever make pit-stops along the way?”
“Yes. For food, or if I’m feeling a little sleepy I’ll take a quick nap after having listened to my kids fight in the back seat for six hours.”
“Well, think of the Ritual of Solitude as a pit-stop for the soul.
Its purpose is self-renewal and this is accomplished by spending time alone, immersed in the beautiful blanket of silence.”
“What is so special about silence?”
“Good question. Solitude and quiet connects you to your creative source and releases the limitless intelligence of the Universe. You see, John, the mind is like a lake. In our chaotic world, most people’s minds are not still. We are full of inner turbulence. However, by simply taking the time to be still and quiet every day, the lake of the mind becomes as smooth as a plate of glass. This inner quietness brings with it a wealth of benefits including a deep sense of well-being, inner peace and boundless energy. You will even sleep better and enjoy a renewed feeling of balance in your day-to-day activities.”
“Where should I go for this period of peace?”
“Theoretically, you could do it anywhere, from your bedroom to your office. The key is to find a place of true quiet — and beauty.”

“Obviously.”
“Like what?”
“Hmm. Well, first, in a perfect world I would get up earlier. I don’t think I’m doing myself any favors by hitting the ground running. I’d like to have a little peace in the morning and ease myself into the day. The Heart of the Rose technique you told me about earlier sounds like it would be fun. Also, I really would like to have the family around the breakfast table, even if only for a bowl of cereal. It would give me a better sense of balance. I always seem to feel that I never spend enough time with Jenny and the kids.”
“But it is a perfect world, and you have a perfect life. You do have the power to control your day. You do have the power to think good thoughts. You do have the power to live your dreams!” Julian observed, his voice rising.
“I am realizing this. I really am starting to feel that I can change.”
“Great. Continue reflecting on your day,” he instructed.
“Well, I wish I hadn’t yelled at my client. I wish I hadn’t argued with the court clerk and I wish I hadn’t screamed at the traffic.”
“The traffic doesn’t care, does it?”
“It just keeps on being traffic,” I noted.
“I think you now see the power of the Ritual of Personal Reflection. By looking at what you are doing, how you are spending your day and the thoughts you are thinking, you give yourself a benchmark for measuring improvement. The only way to improve tomorrow is to know what you did wrong today.”

Dear Greg,
I’ve been dating a guy since I was twenty-three. I’m twenty-eight now. We started talking about marriage two years ago, and he said he wasn’t ready. So we moved in together to help him get “ready.” We talked about it recently and he said that he still wasn’t ready. He reminded me that we’re young and we still have a lot of time and there’s no need to rush. In a way, he’s right. I’m only twenty-eight and people get married much later these days. And sometimes it takes longer for guys to grow up than girls. So I want to be understanding, but I’m just not sure how long I’m supposed to wait. Does he need more time or is he just not that into marrying me? Danielle
Dear Waiting at the Altar,
He’s right. Why rush? It’s only been five years. He’s going to know you so much better after ten. And you have all the time in the world, right? You know, in case after ten years he decides he’s still not ready. I hate to tell you this, but here’s why he feels rushed: He’s still not sure you’re the one. Yep, my lovely, I know it’s hard to hear, but better to hear it
now than ten years from now. So you can stay with him and continue to audition for the part of his lucky wife, or you can go find someone who doesn’t need a decade or two to realize you’re the best thing that ever happened to him.
I’m not ready. This is the most often used excuse in the world, but it always seems to do the trick. Women love waiting around for men to be ready. You women must enjoy it, because you do it so much of the time. Which is ironic to me, since you’re the ones with the biological clocks that are supposedly ticking away. Listen, we all know that couple who’s been dating for five years…eight years and still hasn’t gotten married. We know it never works out well for that couple. So how about you stop waiting—and start looking for that guy who can’t wait to love you.

“Okay so where do I start?”
“It’s actually pretty easy. Two or three times a day take a minute or two to think about breathing more deeply and effectively.”
“How do I know if I’m breathing effectively?”
“Well, your belly should move out slightly. This indicates that you are breathing from the abdomen, which is good. A trick that Yogi Raman taught me was to cup my hands over my stomach. If they moved out as I inhaled, my breathing technique was proper.”
“Very interesting.”
“If you like that, then you will love the Third Ritual of Radiant Living,” said Julian.
“Which is?”
“The Ritual of Live Nourishment. In my days as a litigator, I lived off of a steady diet of steaks, fries and other types of junk food. Sure I ate at the finest restaurants in the country, but I still filled my body with junk. I didn’t know it at the time, but this was one of the main sources of my discontent.”

That night, sitting on the floor of my cluttered living room, I learned what Julian called “The Ten Rituals of Radiant Living.” Some of them required a little concentrated effort on my part. Others could be performed effortlessly. All were intriguing and rich with the promise of extraordinary things to come.
“The first strategy was known to the sages as the Ritual of Solitude. This involves nothing more than ensuring that your daily schedule includes a mandatory period of peace.”
“Just what is a period of peace?”
“It is a period of time, as little as fifteen minutes or as much as fifty, wherein you explore the healing power of silence and come to know who you really are,” Julian explained.
“Sort of a rest break for that overheated engine of mine?” I suggested with a slight smile.
“That’s a pretty accurate way of looking at it. Have you ever been on a long road trip with your family?”
“Sure. Every summer we drive down to the islands to spend a couple of weeks with Jenny’s parents.”

I regretfully admit to having “disappeared” on a woman in my previous life as a single guy. A year later I saw this woman on the street, standing in front of a café. She looked stunning and was holding hands
with a very handsome dude. I realized that I was of course ten million miles out of her head, and probably had been two minutes after I stopped calling her. Her life looked way more dignified than my behavior.
Greg, I Get It! by Liz, Age 41
Okay, Greg, I won’t e-mail the French guy. I promise.
IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE GREG
100% of men polled who had “disappeared” on a woman said that at the time they were completely aware of what a horrible thing they were doing, and no woman calling them up and talking to them would have changed that.
What You Should Have Learned in This Chapter
l He might be lying in the hospital with amnesia, but more likely he’s just not that into you.
l No answer is your answer.
l Don’t give him the chance to reject you again.
l Let his mother yell at him. You’re too busy.
l There’s no mystery—he’s gone and he wasn’t good enough for you.
Our Super-Good Really Helpful Workbook
We’d have an exercise if we really thought this guy was worth the time, but he’s not. So take the afternoon off and go out and have a good time. Love, your friends at He’s Just Not That Into You, Greg and Liz
Okay, if that’s not good enough…
It’s the oldest trick in the book, but it’s the only thing we’re willing to grant you. Write the guy a really, really long letter, asking him every question you need to. Say everything you want to say. Call him all the names you feel like. Say something mean about his mother. And then—you guessed it—just rip it up. That’s the most time we’ll let you spend on this loser.
