Even if you appear coordinated and that your life fits together, what’s going on in your thinking might leave you feeling like a shell with a confused head.
Or maybe you’ve been telling yourself that your life is a mess no matter which way you look at it.
Or you feel blessed that all is well, but you wonder how to elevate your set point to a higher altitude you’ve never experienced before.
Conflicting voices in your head can torment you.
Do any of these sound familiar?
You and nothing you do is good enough. What’s wrong with you? You’re never going to get ahead. You screwed up, again. What a loser. What makes you think anything’s gonna change? It’s not going to work, so why chance it? You’ve tried before and you remember how bad it turned out, so what’s the use of trying again? You oughta be a lot further ahead than where you are now… especially at your age.
There are countless ways to beat yourself up.
What if a “friend” said things to you like this, on and on and on?
For a while, you might feel immobilized – how could you do anything with this weight on you?
Why bother taking action? With the wind taken out of your sails, you’re left with no energy.
Instead, procrastinate. Lose interest. Be indecisive. Watch too much TV. After all, you might make another mistake. Play it safe. Do nothing.
Another option is feeling vengeful and lashing out against the world. How dare they?! How can you do this to me?
Or be arrogant and proud. They think they’re all that and then some. Well, I’ll put them in their place.
When you snapped out of your stupor from getting way too many demoralizing hits below the belt, you’d either want to leave, give them a piece of your mind or shorten any air time you’d give them.
You don’t have to put up with this from others. Most importantly, you don’t have to put up with badgering thoughts that are on instant replay in your brain!
How can you stop the momentum of that train on its way to become a wreck?
When you stop to listen to the conversation in your head and observe it, you might notice something very important.
It lies. That negativity is not the truth.
Do you like liars? Probably not. So stop listening to these horror stories. They’re NOT true!
Instead of acting like an obedient servant to lunacy – yours or others – choose to stop it.
That’s why I named my technique Liberation of Lunacy because when the ego takes over, we’re all a little crazy.
Instead, ASK for your essence to be in the driver’s seat of your life and business.
You’re a Divine child. You’re more than good enough. If you diss you, you diss your Creator.
The rest of that silly stuff is only a program in your head, and you can replace that software.
You can start by making a choice. What thoughts, ideas or outcomes do you choose instead?
I choose _________________________.
You’re that powerful so if you choose, it makes a difference. Really. Choose to let go of the burdensome yoke of enslavement you’ve been carrying.
Choose to be free.
Now don’t go straddling the fence between listening to goofy ideas and choosing. Perching on pointy fence tops is very uncomfortable.
You have a choice to listen to those inane voices in your head or not.
How do I know they’re not telling you the truth? Because your essence never talks to you like this. Your spirit is always supportive. It may lovingly ask what you learned, but it never disparages you.
Here’s another approach.
The next time the dictator/ victim/ bully/ procrastinator/ naysayer in your head tells you that you can’t do something, say with resolve, “Watch me do it. Watch me.”
