I practice self-identify throught ho'oponopono (sith) for almost 3 yeas now. This is an "updated version" of traditional ho'oponopono created by Morrnah Simeona, and it became popular with Dr. Hew Len with the help of Joe Vitale (a popular self-help book writer featured in "The Secret" movie). In essence, you take 100% responsibility for all problems that you experience. By taking responsibility, we can become free of them. All problems are nothing but memories stored in our subconscious. With ho'oponopono, we appeal to the divinity (god/universe) to transmute those stored memories into void, and then void becomes filled with love.

So if you have a problem with someone, by taking 100% responsibility, and by doing the cleaning processes, you and that person becomes "free".

I've studied a lot about modern ho'oponopono. I can see resemblances with other books and philosophies such as Eckhart Tolle's Power of Now books, A Course in Miracles, etc.

This was one of my biggest take aways from working up the ladder of starcraft 2. If you don't take responsibility for a loss then you don't have the power to prevent it in the future.

I suppose so

Wait, what?

I discovered something similar from another direction, by choosing to believe in karma, whether or not it is real.

i.e., if someone makes me upset and I can't do anything about it, it's because I upset someone else in the past and didn't make up for it.

It may not work for everyone but seeing things that way sometimes helps me absolve myself of guilt and bitterness.
