It limits us all, yet few do anything about it!

How we perceive life is humanities biggest challenge. Education, training, religion, culture and experiential life has created a position that ‘life is a struggle’ and one to overcome. So, we must work hard, bad things happen so we need to prepare and protect ourselves and create a raft of fearful mind constructs labelled negative thinking.
There are many mediums such as songs, verses, poems where we promote love, share kindness to love each other as a relief to the fearful mindsets held, yet it's cycle continues.
The challenge is we are stuck in the complexity of logic and few get to really touch love. Many occasionally open to it and experience sharing kindness, gentleness, acceptance and a joyful presence of peace. Yet, humanity has wired itself to fearful living, and as such constantly creates that as its experiential life default.
That positionality brings with it pain, suffering, ill health and a population out of balance and love. Its away from living its passions, loves, dreams and being the best truest self it can be.
Ask yourself, “What am I so afraid of, what’s my biggest fear?” Speak it out or write it down.Then ask yourself, “what does this fear create for me in life and those around me?” again, speak it out or write it down or record it.
You know what It’s doing, we all do, and we’ve buried it and pushed on in life, but it’s the anchor we’re dragging and it’s holding us back, slowing us down. It’s creating underlying frustration, pain and if left unchecked will trigger ill health, mentally, physically or both.
This is not your fault, there is no blame so do not go into that or guilt. We are all conditioned to perform, follow the norm of society, education, culture, we’ve become frustrated clones, following or doing what we’re told. By doing that we are losing our connection with who we ‘truly are’ to fit into a world that is dominated by fearful beliefs.
Your life is a creation of your constant fearful thoughts, as is most of the humanity particularly in the industrialised world. Stop and look at people around you, listen to their conversations and the language they are using. ‘What’s not right’, their anger at, judgement at, condemnation of, it’s a stream of what is termed, ‘negativity’ of both attitudes and behaviours.
Now look again at your biggest fear, what is it creating for you in life, pain, suffering, illness, frustration, lack of action, walking away from or not facing something? Is it keeping you stuck in a job, a relationship, a friendship, a country, a culture, an expectation, a mindset? Where is it limiting, your ability to step into something you want!
You are not alone, many feel like it and I would bet you rarely speak about your fear and just dismiss what you want as a pipe dream, something you can never have!
If you were willing to explore the pipe dream, push through the limiting fearful thoughts, where would your life take you? For most, those thoughts can also be fearful, another layer of limitation as it can be the ‘unknown’ and let’s face it, most don’t like the unknown, it can be scary!
But the world could really do with your authenticity, your soul wants you to express it and your heart is aching to be felt. You hold a key that no one else has and when it opens the door you shine, and people see and feel it, and they smile!
All sounds too scary but intriguing? Then let’s chat and have a gentle exploration. Who knows where it may take you……..
