Awakening From A Deep Sleep
It’s my right to believe as I want to, but it is also my responsibility to wake up from my ho-hum existence of monotonized tasks to my greater purpose. Even if my only purpose is to halfway recognize what I am doing here in 3-D, and to try to keep some of the ELF out of my head; well it’s not going well. At times I cry victory only to be amused later at how gullible I was for having believed what I did to be a victory. I know, at best, with waking up to my higher potential, I can’t even keep it at bay. As I go through the layers of me, I realize more and more how awfully complicated we have made our reality. Some part of me knows that all I have to do is make a definite decision to change and my own personal version of reality would get in line with my thoughts. Just about the only thing I have learned in this existence of any lasting quality is that everyone has their own agenda or reason for doing what they do. Often this agenda is not even a conscious one, but a programmed one, and forms another layer for me to get through. I keep on celebrating my breakthroughs from one level to another, hoping that I live long enough to become more awake as to what 3-D is here for. Maybe it’s here just so we can have an agenda to work on.
What I mean by this is that 3-D is us. We make up our reality the way by the way in which we think. Whatever we spend time thinking about or not, comes into our world. We are as powerful as we think we are and more. If we try not to think about something, guess what comes into our lives big time. There are those among us who get it and a lot of us that don’t. We think reality is out there, when it really is within our power all along. Try focusing on something you want to happen, now work that up to a fever pitch. I mean no eating, sleeping, going to work without the thought of doing it, being it, having it. Make it an obsession in your life. How long do you think it would be before you got what you’re aiming at? Not long, I bet. Now do the same thing in reverse, so you think, about something you don’t want. Worry about it all the time, obsess over it, and fuss about it. Talk negative about it. Try to make it not happen. It will happen every time, just like clockwork because that’s what you thought about. Negative or positive doesn’t matter; it’s the thought that counts. The mind pattern is all it takes to make something happen, good or bad, right or wrong. What we think about comes about. Anyone who comes into our lives is there because we had a thought pattern about them. In this way, everyone in our lives is a mirror for us to learn from. If we don’t learn we just repeat the same old crud over and over. Why is this world the way it is? Because we think about it all the time and reinforce our current mind pattern’s thinking that’s why. The world will change if we change. I’m not talking about a collective change, but a personal shift of focus. I ‘m talking about learning from each thought we have and acting on that knowledge. I’m talking about being careful about what we think about because we are more powerful than we think we are.
Do not try to focus on not thinking bad thoughts, rather just focus on what you want to happen so much that it takes over your consciousness entirely. Eat, sleep, and drink it until it comes about. Ever hear about the absent-minded professor who can’t tie his shoe, but can do complex math in his head. For him, tying his shoe is not important enough to concentrate on, but math has become his whole life, so it’s easy. An oversimplification is due here. Say, you live life in the ghetto and you can’t seem to get out. You work at Burger King in a dead end job that doesn’t pay the rent. You have no prospects. Now, you can get out, anyone can who has bus fare to get out of town. Your self-limiting beliefs and the idea that you are a victim of your environment come into play and you stay. All it takes is a decision to make bus fare to get out, but as bad as it is, it could be worse elsewhere, after all you are a victim. With a victim mentality, you can’t leave the ghetto, or wherever you are. So you just generate the same thoughts you have before and presto, your life stays the same. It takes a decision to change first, then the commitment that follows that thought.
I am talking about waking up to the fact that we are not victims, but powerful beings who have been led to believe in self-limiting concepts. What we forget is that our power does not diminish at all, it just gets stuck right where we’re most comfortable. If we tell ourselves consistently that we are powerless and we can’t change, our power says stay put and we do. We are a self-fulfilling prophecy and we don’t know it consciously. At work, I used to be called that with a negative connotation. I made my work go the way I wanted it to. My bosses could not make me change. I never made the connection to my waking life until this very moment. I am a self-fulfilling prophecy everywhere in my life. So now that I recognize that fact, I can put it to use everywhere in my life, by using the same gusto and focus I used at work. I can make my life work the way I want it to.
I can wake up now.
I am my own worst enemy and best friend at the same time.
All it takes is a thought followed by an action consistent with that thought and I change.
I’m doing it now. I’m beginning to believe that I am a whole soul and not a wounded victim. I’m starting to take chances again, but this time there is a certain amount of knowledge that it will turn out right. What am I talking about? A quality of life that is secure in the fact that nothing is secure, but what you make of it. I am starting to truly believe that I make my own universe. I’m making it into one that I like. I choose what is right for me consistently now. At least most of my decisions are based on the fact that I can only be triggered if I choose to let them trigger me. I can love and be loved, for now I have the true self-esteem to know that I am great enough to be loved by someone. I am beginning to trust myself again. This time it is different because now I know what is out there and I am not avoiding it as much as I am concentrating on my purpose for being here in 3-D. It called purposeful thought bears right action. My mind pattern is getting stronger now and with it I am paying attention to more than I ever did before. It’s like getting conscious of being awake. It is a natural high, but a guarded one. I am more alert for my possible ill thought patterns than I was before. For all it takes is one thought to be inconsistent. This requires a lot of quiet time to collect my thoughts. For the first time recently, I looked at the sky and the moon with out a reptilian worry thought entering my mind. I am changing and becoming more powerful than I was. Not spiritually or physically, but mindfully.
Amongst all the pain and suffering in this world, I have found a personal ray of light that I know will let me accomplish my purpose here. I am an observer, but also more, I am a teacher and I have something to say. I have always wondered about why things came very clear once I wrote them out. It is because it is part of my purpose. The flow of my life is such that now I do not require what I once did to be fully alive.
I know now why the people around me are a reflection of me. They are a direct reflection of how I see my life. When I am unclear about my purpose and direction, the people around me bug and bother me, as if to say get back on track. My wife is my check and balance, so to say. When I am sure and strong, she is the same. When I am weak, she is hell to live with. That’s because I am hell to live with when I am weak. That’s because I am generating a reality that she doesn’t like and can’t grow in or with. When I am strong I generate a reality that leaves her alone to generate her own reality instead of bogging her down with my excess baggage. Strong or weak, I am a self-fulfilling prophecy. I used to be that only at work, but when I started recognizing that only I was pulling the strings of my life, the mess that was my life is straightening out little by little. Maybe I won’t get it all right until I leave 3-D, but it won’t be for lack of trying. As I go through my life, the trials get harder and the lessons come faster, just like time is flying now. I notice so much more than I did before. It’s scary at times.
Now, I must experience happiness, rather than just talk about it. If happiness is a state of mind, then I’m delirious. My baggage is flowing out of my life and I am beginning to see what I never saw before. Instead of doubt, I am seeing more and more with a sureness of I am and have all I need to get through this life. I had it all, all the time, but I couldn’t see the forest for the trees. For the first time in a long time, I can say with some certainty that I am going to be all right. Life is good when you finally start to wake up. Hope springs eternal from a strong mind pattern on purpose. That mind pattern creates your reality.
