Hello All...It's so great how these notes seem to address something that we are all going through at just the perfect time. I too was away for about a week feeling a bit overwhelmed by all of the depth of wisdom coming my way. It was one step back and now I'm ready to take a few forward again.
Dabbling with a bit of Obsession has been something that I do often with things. Hacker not so much. I guess I see it all as a preparation for whatever is next in my life though because all of the things that I get involved with are in such different fields of interest. I can't waite to see how it all plays out in the end.
Have been working on being in the moment, the now. Some very good YouTube videos by Eckhart Tolle on this subject.
Much love.....
Truly have had a good time reading everyone's posts today. So inpirational and insightful. I don't really have anymore time to write my own thoughts today. Just really enjoyed reading comments and replying to some of them. Thanks to everyone for who you are. Have a great weekend.........
Hi Maxine, I think you are committed to this challenge. So what if you didn't show up for one day, you had a wonderful time with a friend that you enjoy spending time with and you accomplished the things that needed to be addressed. All of the things that you are doing on a daily basis will get easier with time and experience and then you will want to add more. I agree with Soma, be kind to yourself and know that whatever you did do was enough.....:)
Adaret, I really admire you for always being ready to share your process and insights so completely. It really is very helpful for me to see this as I have been struggling with how to make peace with those parts of myself as well. I am so happy that you are getting the benefit of John's brilliant mind. I hope I can hire a life coach someday. As for the Silva Program, I have it and have used it. It is an excellent tool. Enjoy!!
I like the idea of making your commitment non-negotialble. Thanks for sharing that.
Mark, It sounds like you are ready to howl at the moon, in tune with the spirit of the coyote, Rock It!!!
What a great experience. Thank you for sharing it.You have reminded me of why I started on this journey by telling this story. It resonated for me more than today's note. I now want to read that book as well. I am like you in that the initial experience of being connected to the oneness has become less intense until I connect with someone else in that oneness, then it is as if time stops and there is just the oneness in that moment of the parts of the one. I hope that made sense. It did to me...lol Enjoy your weekend......
“Now that you have a better understanding of the mental mechanisms that influence your performance, you’ll realize that although we all find ourselves in slumps occasionally, we don’t need to get stuck in them. And when you feel like you’re going nowhere or even slipping backward, you may actually be backing up to get a running start.” Wow, this kinda sums up the past 2 weeks for me. Between yesterday's note/refresher on RDPD and today's, I have finally mustered up the courage and determination to put myself 'out there' so to speak. I have been hesitating to promote my website ( .com) out of fear that it just wasn't good enough yet. I realized that I can do that forever if I let myself and then I will never get anywhere at all. So here goes, if I fail, I fail, and I will learn from my mistakes. Here's to taking chances, pushing through the fear, and creating my new life.......
Hi SomaSoma, I like your analogy of the ant stuck in molasses. I have been feeling that lately. Time to pull myself out of the molasses even if it means prying out one sticky foot at a time. lol Thanks for the encouragement. Love and light....
Mark thank you for both of your comments. I struggle daily with the want and don't want mind wrestling and am making progress a little at a time. I think I was on the fence of committing myself fully to what I have set out to do. I spoke with my sister last night hoping for some good feedback but sometimes family are the worst sounding board. It made me realize that if I don't get more passionate about what I am doing, I may as well go back to what I was doing before. I realized that I am not at an extreme in the swing but hanging out somewhere in the middle. I need to "swing and dance with the Spirit"! Much love....
