Replying to LO5764 --

They are all good; I appreciate your sharing them with me, and...

I would offer instead:

12. Increasing tendency to do what you want, rather than do what others
want you to do. Be clear in your choices with respect to what you want
and remain congruent with them.

I say this because we already have the tendency to let things happen,
especially to us (victim, at effect) vs. choosing what we really want to
do (in control of our fate, at cause). In one way I hear you saying don't
fight the things that "flow" for you, just because of some social or
expected norm...
