Where are you taking yourself out of the game of life because of your beliefs that something is impossible, or even if it is possible, it’s just not possible for you? Resistance is a thing!
There is nothing stopping you living, being and doing what you love. What prevents you having it all in this moment is your resistance. The belief(s) that you make up about the world. That blind refractory force that denies the will of God. It denies your will. It is not real and it is not the truth.
We are all subject to resistance, our beliefs our identity and the swing of the pendulum. Robert Fritz who wrote the book, “The Path of Least Resistance” says that the swing of the pendulum is due to powerlessness. You swing from creating what you want at one end of the spectrum to creating what you want to avoid or don’t want at the other end. Whenever you step outside of your identity all your limiting beliefs come up. You’re not safe, you’re not good enough, you’re insignificant, you’re not capable you’re not worthy etc. and that combined with your identity leads to powerlessness.
Whenever you go for what you love, your ego pulls you back into your psychological tension. You end up with two competing tensions within yourself – your Sole tension versus your Egoic tension.
You can’t get out of it it’s inherent.
The swing of the pendulum is as extreme as you are powerful, you can’t defy it. As a Creator we are not immune to the swing of the pendulum. How do you rise above it? The masterful are above it and are not subject to it and they fix themselves to the apex. The pendulum swings on the lower level. the masterful fix themselves on the higher level.
You oscillate from Egoic reality to Soul reality. From Victim reality to Creator reality.
It’s important to be aware of both realities and that both realities seem real. It’s important to know that we can be in either and know that we oscillate. We have a tendency to identify with the oscillation. At one end we believe we are great, we are wonderful, the best thing since sliced bread, and on at the other end we believe we are total crap.
You need to be aware of this and don’t identify with either. You don’t identify with your thoughts and feelings i.e. you are total crap and you don’t identify with your gifts and talents and experiences i.e. I am great, I’m hot shit, I’m the best.
this dynamic of consciousness exists, and you shouldn’t buy into it. It’s not real. If you know something isn’t real, don’t go along with it. It’s an illusion. Acknowledge it AND it’s not the reality of what’s going on. In a few days’ time it will be different.
Why do you buy into it?
The swing of the pendulum is constant. However, you can choose not to be influenced by it. For example, a boat sits above the water, it floats on the water, and is not affected by the tides which are constant.
it’s important to celebrate all the cool stuff you create. Celebrate and have fun but don’t identify with it. It’s not about you. It’s not real and you know it’s not real. Why are you going along with the reality? Because it takes will to not go along with the reality.
The degree to which you buy into your stuff, is the degree to which you hold onto or abandon your will. Will is the mechanism that holds you out of your egoic structure.
Will is the ability to take the power out of our fear based agendas and put the power in our hearts, i.e. what really matters to us. Will is the ability, or commitment, to refocus. For the new to emerge, the old must die. If you seriously want to change, you have to let go of your old story and free yourself up to follow your heart. Only then will you have a new foundation from which to create.
Will is also about allowing yourself to be vulnerable. Your story has been a security blanket that you’ve unconsciously clung to all your life. It’s familiar and obviously you will feel exposed without it. This feeling is what Dr James Masterson refers to in his book Search For The Real Self as “abandonment depression.” Using your Will means standing in life unconditionally, without guarantees, being vulnerable.
The reason you get sucked into your illusion is that you abandon your will. You want to fit in, you want to collude, you want to avoid, you want to belong, you want to appear capable, you want to be validated, liked or loved. You are not prepared to hold your will and say, “I don’t see it this way.”
It takes will to be in the truth of any moment.
You know that it’s an illusion. Yet you abandon your will because you believe there are consequences that are far worse if you use your will.
There are consequences for using your will as opposed to the crap you experience as the swing of the pendulum. It’s a tradeoff. You trade off what you believe to be the worst possible end result for the known false end result of resolving your psychological tension.
We lost using our will in childhood. Can you all recognize that we gave our will away when we were a kid?
Yes, of course you can.
We wanted to be safe and secure and we wanted our parents to fix things so we’d be Ok, we’d belong etc.
We get our energy from a higher source. We are connected to Pure Consciousness, Pure Creativity itself. That runs through our veins. Rather than trading it from a lower source, trading our soul for survival or protection we can use our will to pay attention to the wisdom that comes to us, the intuition that comes to us and follow through on what we get. Also focusing on the end result that we’d love to have.
Our will is what we abandoned as a child to get safety/security/protection and love.
However, now we can use our will to bypass our thoughts, feelings and beliefs.
Our will is going to get us everything we need. It’s time to be focused on using it at every opportunity.
