“I become an agent of change, only to the degree that I begin to live to help things go right….” This episode begins a series sharing the principles from the book, The Anatomy of Peace written by the Arbinger Institute. It is a fictional story that helps teach some principles. We are going to have a handful of parts to this book and this week I will be sharing some of the things that I learned from chapter 1 through 4. The book begins with a story of some families who are dropping off their children at a wilderness rehabilitation camp, called Camp Moriah. There the directors spend a few days teaching the parents so they can help facilitate change when their children are done with the program. In this part of the book, the main parts of change is to understand that we become agents of change when we spend more time on helping things go right rather than correcting and criticizing. Then the first principle we learn is about having a heart at war or a heart at peace. We learn about the crusaders and Saladin and which was more successful due to their heart being at peace despite being involved in a war.
