I know that makes me look like (and feel like) a naive wimp at times.

Thats a great way to look a it.
In non-duality there are alternatives not opposites.
It takes great strength to be different, to develop humility.
Your no wimp Gnosis5
People are responsible for their thoughts, not you.
There is no strength in running programed which is the case with most people and because they are spiritual asleep they are not aligned to the power of Now and are not aware of this.
The power of any 12 step program lies in humility and surrender to a Higher Power.
Force-- will power creates an equal force in opposition so no progress is made.
Its called the bicep tri-cep principal. The arm-- the aim is locked.
