Insights from the Elders

What do you hear playing in your head when you stop to listen? The mind engages and processes logical thoughts. It moves in a manner that occurs in a sequence or flow. Whereas the ego inserts, interjects, and presents an idea or consideration seemingly out of nowhere. So as you discern what is going on within, do consider you have many occupants that engage and may wage a battle for thought supremacy. In the war of words, ego loves to have the last word. Does it wage a measured, more balanced re...

Have you ever wondered about those course corrections we’ve discussed previously? How they work and their value? Why should you want to acknowledge, engage, and implement signs which are precursors to a course correction — sooner rather than later? And what are some of the steps we allude to which will begin to activate that internal shift to more readily occur? We reference here the internal shifts a course correction enlists.

Do you understand that a course correction comes in many forms? It can come in the form of a change in your job or lifestyle, an illness, or a disease. It can be experienced through the loss of something cherished or appear as a perceived problem. It can also be a nuance you didn't expect to appear or some unwanted condition now a part of your life.

Do you wonder what is underfoot today and why these things continue to be? And how do you see this time? Is it met in an oppositional way, or do you move with the flow of all that life seems to be giving to you this day? You see, each thing is as you see it to be. And when you see each as a gift and opportunity, then do you see more will energetically flow to you in that regard.

But if instead, you see inconvenience, fearful undertakings, and all in existence today from a more negative posture, then more of that energy will proceed from that. You see, life is as you believe it to be. Even today you can find beauty and solace in each measure that is moving into cue. All moves according to the focus you keep. Focus more upon what you want to have in your immediate proximity, rather than to focus on something unwanted. In this way, you draw in those things that are more readily preferred. 

Do you realize that when you feel bad or disconnected that this is not real? When an aspect, feeling, or other consideration impacts you in a lesser way, recognize that this need not be. You are always connected to your God Source and those that would propel you into what you seek to know, do or be.

Do you see that when you are willing to release the angst of the moment -- so much more can enter in? In a way, it is as if you are cleaning your house. When you seek to clear away the (mental) clutter to make room for something new, more can enter in.

Always seek to engage as in the wonderment of a child.

Have you ever thought of life as a series of occurrences? When you were younger, did you watch and listen to what others shared? Did you then follow their direction and made decisions as you moved into adulthood based on certain foundational understandings?

Did you reflect on what you saw? Did you like or dislike certain associated feelings? In life, uncertainties appeared and perhaps, from time to time, you felt a little scared.

Career choices are scary things if you didn’t immediately know or resonate with a particular occupation or profession. Some individuals believe they are expected to follow a family-held career path and they have no other choice than to do as they feel they must. Other times, career opportunities may have seemingly popped up and into play out of nowhere. When going to that final interview, the position seemed like it would be good enough and it paid well. You were young, so why not try this or that out for a while? You had lots of time to change your mind. Might we look at this premise another way?
