Those pesky 3Ps Police

On ‘not being all-in’ on the 3 Principles. Look out, they're coming for you! 👮

I have quite a lot of conversations with people about the 3Ps (The 3 Principles, as articulated by Sydney Banks in the 1970’s)

And it’s funny, because I hear people saying things like,

  • “I’m not ‘all in’ on the 3Ps,” or
  • “I’ve been away from the 3Ps for a while, but I’m back into them now,” or
  • “I still practice this other thing, so I’m not really living a full 3Ps Life,” or just plain old
  • “I think I’m doing the 3Ps wrong somehow, because everything’s not awesome.”

Now, if the 3Ps were actually an approach or a tool that we could learn, understand, remember and apply, then I’d be with you.

(To be fair, under such circumstances I’d be ‘rubbish at the 3Ps’ too 🤣)

It’s almost as if there are some 3Ps Police, ready to knock on your door and cart you away, because you’re doing it wrong.
