Welcome back!
Do you ever feel the actions you’re taking in life aren’t given you the results you desire?
That feeling of spinning your wheels is frustrating. Isn’t it?
Consider this: The action you’re taking is an attempt to solve a problem. What if you’re asking the wrong questions? What if you’re just swatting at symptoms and not getting to the root of your problems?
From my systems engineering background, I found out that if you’re solving the wrong problem and if you’re putting time and energy into solving the wrong problem it’s a far worse thing than just sort of sitting back and clearing the decks and letting inspiration take you to the solution.
Letting inspiration bring the solution to you is easier. Isn’t it?
In a lot of cases, we go out and think that action, for the sake of action, is good. Gotta be busy…can’t let anyone think we’re lazy, ya gotta take action.
And while that’s true, it’s only true when you’re living from inspired and harmonic thought.
If you’re running down a path and you’re not clear first and you taken off before you take your inspiration, a lot of times that’s wasted energy. And you’re running yourself down a rabbit hole that you don’t have to.
Do you find yourself occasionally looking up after awhile and wondering how you got where you are?
Do you feel uneasy when you try to stop and calm your mind and figure things out? Do you keep doing the same things simply because you can’t think of anything new to try beating you head on the wall of life?
It’s like when you’re working on a computer and it screws up and you just keep clicking that icon or keep hitting the enter key expecting a different result. And, you know it’s not going to happen.
The subroutines that are running in that system have gone awry…it’s time to reboot your life. But that’s similar to the way humans interact with the system that’s available for them.
The body, the mind, the being, the energy, that’s the system. And so, when that system has a slight malfunction, I mean the whole computer’s generally working but this particular program in this particular area, all of a sudden you can’t print or something.
So, that’s kind of the way of life. Your subroutines get out of whack and so, rather than stopping for a second and trying to assess the situation and perhaps clear your mind of any negative energies, we keep clicking the icon.
In the case of life’s situations and life itself, rather than beating your head on the problems, sit back and clear.
Clear on the issues, clear on the emotions, clear on everything, and let inspiration bring you the answers.
Would you rather have a clear mind or cluttered mind advising you on what action you should be taking?
So where does the mental clutter come from?
That uncomfortable feeling of having to take action for the sake of action is the false reflection of yourself in others. You’re concerned about the way others will perceive what the outward results are.
And so, you’re acting in accordance to what you think, they’re thinking. Not only do you have to worry about what actions to take, you’ve got to calculate what you think they’re thinking.
How jacked up is that? Not looking to your self for your “final answers” sets you up for wasting time solving a lot of the wrong problems.
So, action for the sake of action, release what others are seeing about the situation and look inward, release the emotion about it and let the answer come. Let inspiration guide you. And then take inspired action not action for the sake of action.
