I Was Living for Others, Not for Myself

What Are the Objectives?
When a person uses, they become introverted and focused on their tumultuous inner life. The drugs, in turn, dull the distress, and when the person stops, the physical and mental pain can be overwhelming. The Objectives, which are used throughout the Narconon Program, “extrovert” the student, directing his or her attention away from their ailing body and mind and to the immediate environment. This helps to bring the person out of the past and into the present.

Here is a success story from one of our students who is experiencing the power of the Objectives:
“I don’t remember a time in my life that I was feeling as relaxed and calm as I am now. While I was doing the objective drill a very good and new feeling hit me. I was fully in present time, feeling the moment, I was, and I still am, feeling very relaxed and calm. I am really enjoying this. I’ve started to love this feeling that I never felt before and I hope to remain like this in present time. With this feeling comes and the feeling of self-esteem.
“I realized today something very interesting and important for my life. I realized I was living for others, not for myself. I was always trying to make someone else happy and with that, I forgot about myself. Everything that I was doing, I was doing more for others than for myself. After I realized this I began to feel very free and happy. I am sure in myself 100% that I will change this. Now I will do more good things for me and things that will make me happy, not just for others. During the objectives, I also noticed that my perceptions increased. My sight is better and I can see farther. At this moment, I am feeling very happy, very relaxed, calm and free.”
