Notice that where your focus is, your power goes. If you are focused on what you think you are not experiencing, or focusing on how you feel about other people’s experiences, thinking those experiences are nothing like what you are experiencing – then that is what you are manifesting for your experience. That’s where you are flowing your power.
Is that really what you intend to be focused on?
Everything we do – every choice we make, every thought we sustain, flows from our basic premise in life. Most people have simply adopted the basic life premise of the people with whom/ by whom they were raised, with perhaps a few little adjustments here or there, growing up.
What do I mean by basic premise? I am speaking about the mindsets and beliefs we accept, often without question, to be true. It is these beliefs that then form the basis of how we interpret the experiences we call life.
“Life sucks and then you die.” “God wants us to suffer, so we can be rewarded in heaven.” “Life is about repaying karmic debts.” “Earth is a school for learning, and making mistakes.” “It is human nature to be cruel.” “It is better to give than to receive.” “Don’t show emotion, it is unseemly.” “No one likes change. Change is hard.” “Life is suffering.” “Anything worth having is worth suffering for.”
We could go on with this list forever and never record all the different premises people use to base their lives and life choices on. The point is this – WHAT YOU BELIEVE DETERMINES WHAT YOU PERCEIVE. What you perceive influences the meaning you decide to place upon your experiences, and the life choices you make, from there.
What do you believe about Life, Love, Self and God?
How is that shaping the choices you make in your life?
How is it working for you?
