Notes

The phrase emphasizes "attainment" or the personal struggle towards understanding and enlightenment. The phrase individualizes the problem of connection, diverts attention from the damaging effects of Toxic Socialization (and the healing required as a result, and reinforces the Fool in School narrative. Compare this with an alternative perspective which suggest that in order to enlighten and connect, we must ensure all Seven Essential Needs are met, and we must heal any damage to the Bodily Ego caused by Toxic Socialization.
