Postscript: This is *not* a destination 🚧 - Author: Giles P Croft - Tags: Principles, #1:1 CTA, Consciousness, FOUNDATIONS, IMPLICATIONS, Insight series, Life change, Presence, Sunday Spiritual I’m reflecting on the recent [mini-series I published](https://www.gilespcroft.com/tag/insight-series/), about the nature of insight. It was a behind-the-scenes look at the series of events and realisations that ultimately led to the creation of the Daily Reminders and all the work I do. If you missed it (there were four parts), or have saved them up for a bit of leisurely weekend reading, I’ve pulled them all together for you, here: [Insight series - The Daily RemindersThe story of what happened when I was introduced to the Innate Health understanding, and what it means for you 💝![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9b/f3/9bf3d316-7d32-494b-814f-a7d94d6358c3/content/images/icon/DR_Lockup-Black-3-518.png)The Daily Reminders![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9b/f3/9bf3d316-7d32-494b-814f-a7d94d6358c3/content/images/thumbnail/Topic-image---Insight-series-6.jpg)](https://www.gilespcroft.com/tag/insight-series/) ## Not a destination Now, I know what minds are like, so there’s an important caveat that needs stating clearly. (You can think of this as **Part 5** of the series.) Because a mind could quite easily have read all of that 👆🏻 and concluded: > 📦🗣️: *Right. I hear you. There’s something I’ve not seen here—some big insight to have—so we’d better get to work on that, hadn’t we? Because when we *do* have that insight, like the ones Giles mentioned, then everything will change. Just like it did for him. Hmmm… what can I read, or listen to next, that’s going to help?* Monkeys, they are. Monkeying little monkeys, I tell you! 🐒🧠🐒🧠🐒🧠🐒 This whole having-insights malarkey is not about some *state* you ‘achieve’, because what I described was literally just an *experience* I had, nothing more. It’s like I’d written a series of four posts about a really nice ice cream I had that one time, and it blew my mind. ([Joe’s](https://www.joes-icecream.com/?ref=gilespcroft.com), Swansea, BTW… and yes, I keep going back for more, whenever I’m in the vicinity.) Don’t let the mind confuse the *experience* with the underlying principles. You can hanker after an experience (or ice cream), but it’s fleeting. Always. It passes and the mind body moves on to the next experience. But the underlying principles are constant. They just *are*. What had me being so surprised and shocked and reassured and elated (all experiences, all fleeting) was realising the colossal, yet frankly boring, simplicity of that. > *Oh! This is just how it works. I hadn’t fully appreciated that before!* 🤦🏻‍♂️ 🔑 ****Key Message**: PRINCIPLES are: 1\. Constant – *they're always in play* 2\. Explanatory – **they explain past situations & behaviours* 3\. Predictive – **they predict the behaviour of something in the future* ## The gravity comparison I’ve used the [metaphor of gravity](https://www.gilespcroft.com/what-if-gravity-sometimes-didnt-work/) before, to get us into the right head-space for what’s going on here, because it’s such a close fit. What happened over those [17 Days](https://www.gilespcroft.com/tag/insight-series/), is the equivalent of starting to do some open-minded exploration into how and why cups without lids can hold water, or what keeps that very thin layer of life-sustaining oxygen and nitrogen from just floating off into space. And then someone pointed out how gravity worked to me, prompting the insight: *Oh! This is just how it works. I hadn’t fully appreciated that before!* 🤦🏻‍♂️ (Don't even need to be an expert in gravity—I don't understand it *really*, do you?—just have to know it's a thing.) Now, if I'd been really *fretting* about the effects of gravity beforehand, and trying all sorts of tools and techniques to try and *manage* my experience of gravity (all innocently without understanding what was going on), then when it was pointed out to me that: - there's this thing that we've labelled ‘gravity’, and - it works all the time, and - I don't have to *do* anything… Well, I might feel quite relieved. Potentially even surprised, shocked, reassured and elated, for a bit. And then I'd go about my business, same as before. Gravity always *was* working, it always *would* be, and I could *completely* depend upon it. To all intents and purposes, it had nothing to do with me, other than the fact that I live under its effects. (Being aware of gravity doesn't stop my foot from hurting when I drop something heavy on it, yeah?) But any fretting I'd been doing, or gravity-management techniques I'd been trying (maybe [sellotaping money to my desk](https://www.gilespcroft.com/what-if-gravity-sometimes-didnt-work/), ‘just in case’ it floated away) wouldn't make any sense any more – they'd just [go away](https://www.gilespcroft.com/go-away/) on their own. ## Already ok Everything I mentioned in that series, was simply the slow realisation that I was already ok. I always had been, and I always would be. In spite of anything the mind might say; no more complicated. And it's the same for you too, because it's the same for **all* of us. 😎 ****There's nowhere to get to, because you're already here.** How cool is that? ✨ Giles GET YOUR OWN CHANGES [![CTA Image](https://storage.ghost.io/c/9b/f3/9bf3d316-7d32-494b-814f-a7d94d6358c3/content/images/2026/01/GPC-mugshot-at-desk_800px.jpg)](https://www.gilespcroft.com/individuals) If you've done all the exploring, the reading, the listening, the watching and you **still* feel like you're stuck, then just doing more of the same isn't going to amount to a hill of beans (sorry).
