Fear is not real, my constant presence is real. – Deepak Chopra
The greatest lesson I learned during my recovery is that there are two choices you can make. You can make choices based on fear or you can choose to act from a place of love. There’s no in the middle.
So how to avoid overwhelm & stay authentic is connected to how responsible & present you are, therefore back in 2011 I made a promise to always be responsible and do my best to (re)act with love.
This meant committing to multiple things:
1. Be Aware Of Ego
This means doing the work to stay aware of that sneaky ego voice that houses in your mind. You can do this by observing your thoughts, words & behaviour. Journal about it, evaluate at the end of the day. Do an inventory and you’ll soon realise how much fear is entangled in your daily decisions. As a stubborn person who’s proud of his independence I said; “Hell, to the no … Fear is not going to influence my decisions anymore.”
2. Invite Love Into Your Life
Like a dancer needs to rehears so that the choreography becomes second nature, YOU need to implement a daily me-time moment to become & stay acquainted with that loving voice of your heart. You do this with meditation, prayer, a walk in nature, a moment of silence, yoga, angel card readings, numerology and so much more. It’s crucial for your mental health to stay aligned with this voice.
3 Make Authentic Decisions
Only when you as the CEO are familiar with both voices, you can make authentic decisions.
Fear is not real.
A course in miracles says
it’s an illusion.
You are able
to choose differently.
I hope with today’s meditation we put a light on that fearing voice so it loses power over YOU.
