You cannot ‘acquire’ a practice, you have to ‘become’ a practitioner

From an individual perspective, the individual has to shift from an “acquisition mode” (of thinking in terms of acquiring some skills, acquiring a job, acquiring some degree, acquiring money, etc.) to “becoming”.

When you are “acquiring” you remain at the level of transaction and money in a job. But when you “become” you will become a true expert, you will become a practitioner.

A man who is only taking, can never give and never become. He will be a servant all the time. But in “becoming”, he frees himself.

This is the core concept in I-become.
