FREEDOM FROM BONDAGE

It takes courage but make the choice to live not just exist.  Take that first step to freedom from bondage. Break free! You are worth it. Start living!
We can seek freedom from many different things.  One important freedom is to free ourselves from the bondage of our mind’s interference.  Our mind can get caught up in the past or worry for the future.  We are so trapped in our worries that we forget that our focus amplifies and can become all consuming.  We are so focused on “what ifs” or “has beens” that we forget to live.

 

We continually hash over experiences to the point that they take up permanent residence in our head, and we continually loop over and over again on what was or what might be, much like the movie, Groundhog Day. 

 

We torture ourselves over what we could have done or what we might be able to do. This can also lead to pointing a finger at others and laying blame for events in our lives. Alternatively, we can take responsibility for events that were completely out of our control.  Does this sound familiar?

 

Our bondage stems from our preconceived notions of what we think SHOULD or SHOULD NOT have happened or what might happen in the future.  One suggests we have control issues and the other suggests we worry about potentials.

 

Some people truly do live in their self-made bondage, whether that bondage be mental or physical.

 

The bondage of fear robs us of living. Some of us may be tied to the security of our home environment. Step out and breathe the air of freedom.

 

Some are held in bondage because of the acts of others or life’s circumstances.

 

Can you rise above or break free of your personal bondage? 

 

Do you worry about potential outcomes if you take action? 

 

The unknown can create fear but you are stronger than that fear.

 

Ask yourself if you are supposed to exist under these conditions.  Of course not.  You are here to live!

 

It takes courage but make the choice to live not just exist.  You and you alone must make that decision.  You do not have to do this alone.  Reach out for support or help. Take the first step to freedom from bondage.

 

Break free! You are worth it. Start living!

TRY, TRY AGAIN

If there is potential for a favorable outcome but it entails hard work, so be it! Don't give up. Try, try again! If you fall, get back up! There is a way!
If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again! 

 

Never give up.  Always give it your all.  Some things are worth working or fighting for.  There is satisfaction in knowing that you did your very best even if the outcome was not as planned. 

 

It is important to weigh out the cost (time, effort, value, odds) before committing to something. There are no guarantees in life, but if you don’t try, how do you know?

 

The rewards for a battle well fought usually pays high in dividends.

 

No matter what the goal, working towards a promotion, building a name for yourself, getting more healthy, saving a relationship, if it has value to you, it must be worth the effort!

 

Some things are more important than others. Set your priorities.

 

Obstacles only mean a little more effort. They will test your resilience, but they will teach you valuable lessons.  Life lessons can lead to irreplaceable outcomes.

 

If the cost is too high or the outcome unattainable, walk away!  That is not giving up; it is being accountable.

 

If there is potential for a favorable outcome but it entails hard work, so be it! Try, try again! Many things in life are worth it.  Give it your all. If you fall, get back up! When there’s a will, there’s a way!

LIMITATIONS IN LIFE

We can react or act. We can hold on to struggle or accept. We cannot escape life lessons but we can control our inner dialogue.  What limitations in life are you creating?
More often than not, we have to accept our limitations. There is much we cannot change (with the exception of our attitude). With some situations, we can change things to a degree, but life’s course seems to have a destination in mind.

 

We must have faith in the process, accepting on some level that what lies ahead is the path that we are meant to take.

 

We are seldom in control of the winds of change. Change is guaranteed so do not get too comfortable with where you sit today. There are always influences beyond our control so be flexible and open minded.

 

Sometimes the shift feels favorable, other times the shift feels very uncomfortable. We, more often than not, become concerned and anxious with the unknown or change which only create a less than desirable experience. 

 

We can learn to move with the wind and let it carry us forward.

 

Remember, without change, we stagnate! 

 

The unknown can be frightening. Even when the future looks promising, there can be a feeling of concern because we do not know what to expect. 

 

When life seems to dictate, adjust by not fighting the process unless a fight is warranted and can make a difference. On some level, we will benefit no matter what the outlook, either by actual changes for the better or by experiences that teach us valuable lessons.

 

The only thing we have full control over is our attitude towards what is happening. We must process each step in life, feel the energies or learn the lessons. We can react or we can act. We can hold on to struggle or we can accept. We will not escape our life lessons, but we can control our inner dialogue and how we relate to what unfolds. 

 

What limitations in life are you creating?

ITS NOT ON YOU

It is not always on you but take ownership when it is. Everyone is responsible for their own actions and choices. Stop blaming yourself when it is not your fault. It is not on you!
It is important to take ownership of our actions. In some circumstances, however, the actions of others directly influence those with little or no choice but be affected.

 

In many cases, it takes two to tango, so the saying goes. If it is two parties taking action or acting out, then both parties need to take responsibility for what has taken hold. 

 

It is also important to realize that you act for yourself.  It is just as important to recognize that it is not up to you to push someone else to make changes.  They must make their own decisions to take appropriate actions. We cannot force others to make changes to themselves or corrections to their actions. It can be frustrating to watch someone close being hurtful towards others (including you) or themselves.

 

Sometimes, people shoulder the blame for things they did not do or had no control over. How often do we overthink events and struggle to come up with alternative actions we could have taken to change an outcome that is already in the past (an outcome we had no decision in creating)? 

 

“If only I had made a phone call that day then Charlie (or some other loved one) may not have been in the car at that precise moment of impact” is a perfect example.  The events of life are not yours to own.

 

Remember, it is not always on you but take ownership when it is. Everyone is responsible for their own actions and choices. Stop blaming yourself when it is not your fault and carrying the weight of others. It is not on you! Have self-compassion and set clearer boundaries.

IT’S ALL OR NOTHING

There are times you just have to go for it.

 

You have spent countless hours contemplating and now you realize that the moment has come for you to advance.  You feel it. It IS the time.

 

It is important to pursue your dreams and goals. Are you ready? Get set……go! It’s all or nothing. Give it your all and reap the rewards.
Give it your all and don’t back off, not even for a moment.

 

For each of us, this focus will be a different one. No matter what the focus, push through any adversity and forge ahead.

 

You may have been waiting for a long time, and something has held you back.  Was it fear?

 

Do not step on others to get there. Karma is real. This is not about revenge or getting even, life looks after that. It’s about just reward, doing the right thing, and letting life take you to where you are supposed to be.

 

Fear can hold you back, but do not let it!

 

Move forward armed with information, with positivity and the best intensions. You can do this with or without assistance.

 

Who will benefit?

 

Take care of yourself but if you can incorporate benefits for others, that is much more rewarding.  Listen to your intuition. Step forward with hope and compassion.

 

It is important to pursue your dreams and goals. Are you ready? Get set……go! It’s all or nothing. Give it your all and reap the rewards.

BUILDING TOWARDS THE FUTURE YOU ALWAYS WANTED

So where do we begin? 

 

How do we align with our needs and dreams? 

 

Any dream or goal starts with planning but the most important thing to do is taking that first step.

 

Why not start now?

 

As a matter of fact, the longer we hold off, the greater the likelihood of our mind getting in the way and we talk ourselves out of moving forward. The mind tends to interfere with plans. Some call this egoic interference.

 

Where do you begin?

 

Once you begin to realize small results from your steady work towards building the future you always wanted, the rest seems to follow far more rapidly. Step forward!
We begin with the planning and define what we are hoping to achieve.  Be specific! Do not overwhelm yourself with large ideas.  Build from the ground up.  Start small and have no expectations, positive or negative because “the universe” knows what it is that you need.

 

What is your focus….love, peace, comfort?

 

If you wish is money, is it really money you want.  Might you want comfort, security, freedom, happiness?

 

The ways our hopes and wishes manifest are endless but have no judgement on whether or not this is right for you. Know that what you wish to manifest in your life will help along the way and open doors in the future.

 

As mentioned, the mind will attempt to interfere with these objectives.  There may be thoughts that suggest failure on some level, or that you don’t deserve this outcome. Anything realistic is attainable and it is only the mind’s interference that begins the process of holding us back from achieving our goals.

 

Ego can work in several ways.  It can assist us or hold us back.  It uses many methods and, in most cases, the quiet little voice that is a positive push is the one we need to listen to.  Positivity is never forced on us and it does not guarantee results but it certainly makes the journey more enjoyable and opens many more doors than negativity.

 

Be patient and learn from your experience.  You can learn a lot about yourself. Are you filled with determination or the lack thereof? 

 

The road may not be direct or easy. It has taken us a lifetime this far to reach our current point on the road of life. Remember, belief structure and expectations are the ingredients that either work with us or hold us back, in some cases stifle us completely. 

 

Believe in yourself.  Know that anything can happen. Have faith in the process.  Be diligent, learn patience and grow from all experiences. 

 

Once you begin to realize small results from your steady work towards building the future you always wanted, the rest seems to follow far more rapidly. Step forward!

SIGNATURE LIFE EVENTS

Walk your road; learn from your signature life events. You advance, fall back, push forward, persevere, deliver & accept. It’s all a learning process. Life is a mystery yet so magical, too.
We experience events that act as steppingstones in life and these events propel us forward!  We also have events that foster growth through perseverance, diligent effort, experience and by what some would term chance. 

 

Often, we can feel as though we are at the mercy of life, when life seems to dictate and create struggles that are so overwhelming that we feel stifled and lose faith in our journey. 

 

In the next breath, we can experience what feels like a miracle which takes us to places we never dreamed we could reach. 

 

Either type of events can create major turning points in our journey.

 

At times, we work diligently for something we have set as a priority and we can fall short. There are even times when we complete a difficult life lesson where we feel we have actually moved backwards in our journey.  Remember, however, we learn valuable information from our shortcomings and blunders. The experiences can be very unpleasant, and our egos can be wounded; but we will remember the experience and use this new information or tool moving forward. Do not be emotionally hurt by failures. Our attitudes can make the experience excruciating or fill us with gratitude for the lesson. Remember, it is our ego that is suffering not us (we are not our ego).

 

We can enter some journeys or life lessons as one person and come out at the end of the lesson a whole new person. These experiences often set events in motion that further our evolution even more further down the road of life.  In some cases, we look at life from a completely different perspective after these life lessons. 

 

We can begin to recognize that the flow of life is gauged by expectations, belief structures and focus.  Magic is present with our expectations, and we welcome new adventures (lessons) that promote long-term healing and potential for further growth.

 

We should always remember that we walk our path with others and our actions have ramifications.  What we do in life affects others.  Life has profound ripple effects. Our movement can motivate others or hinder others, temporarily.

 

Walk your road, learn from your signature life events. You advance, fall back, push forward, persevere, deliver and accept. It’s part of the learning process. Life is a mystery but oh so magical, too.

THE REAL YOU

To understand who you really are, you would have to go back into your archives, back to where it all started, from the beginning. 

 

No one really knows their beginning, but many believe that this is not our first incarnation on this earthly journey.  Some believe that there have been several other life experiences that have brought us to this current one.

 

Who are you, really?

 

What are you capable of?

 

We are far more than what we see on the surface today.  We are the culmination of every lesson we have experienced now and previously. Again, I ask then what are we capable of because of these uncountable lessons?

 

We know we are spiritual in our true nature, a small piece of God (don’t get caught up on the word we chose to use). It has been said that God (whatever God represents to you) is indivisible.  We then are a part of a whole which cannot be divided. Are we attempting then to unite that which can’t be separated? 

 

Perhaps while pondering these questions, we might want to further ponder what we can do.  Is this life just about material rewards and accomplishments? 

 

There must be some valuable lessons that are taught through this material existence, or we would not be so wrapped up in attainment and success, at least for those that are.  What valuable lessons are taught through these gains or losses? 

 

Why have we entered this existence which is so tied to achievement and what does this experience teach us?

 

The real you is spiritual and has much knowledge and insight that can foster great assistance in this life particularly for yourself because you cannot assist others until you first help yourself. 

 

How can you help humankind with its evolutionary quest? 

 

Do not think that your part is too small.  An ocean is made of single drops of water. Each of us has work to do.  What is the real you capable of doing knowing that there are no limits?
Do not, for one moment, think that your part is too small.  An ocean is made of an abundance of single drops of water. Push forward with your pure love and affection for your fellow person. Each and every one of us has work to do.  What is the real you capable of doing knowing that there are no limits?
