What Was I Thinking?

Ivan sent me an email where he relates something that has helped him put things into perspective and helped him when he met the invariable question, "How did you fall for that?" You've probably come up against this yourself when you try to relate your experience to others (if you do.)

It's based on Tony Robbin's take on our Basic Human Needs. I meant to look it up but Ivan gives a good overview. Enough to whet your appetite anyway. But if you find it interesting, do some follow-up reading on it.
