In Order to Find Yourself

… you have to step outside the crowd.

And that’s never comfortable.

No one likes to step outside the known reality/the consensus reality because we falsely believe that there is “safety in numbers,” so we religiously “follow the herd.” We figure, “they must know something we don’t,” so we join them because we figure “it is better to be part of something than to stand idle alone.” But this is the greatest misnomer of our time.

Truth is, no individual can know themselves within the context of a group. The group dictates a standard that phase-locks individuals to a false identity. Therefore, one has to get outside the group in order to see their own colors, otherwise the group dynamic will muddy those colors.

Many of us get lost in the crowd and identify ourselves as part of the crowd. But who you truly are can never be identified if you are hiding in the crowd. In order to be who you are, you must step outside the crowd and stand in your own light. And that is what scares most of us and consequently what leads most of us to stay hidden in the crowd. No one wants the spotlight shown upon them.

Are you ready to be seen? Are you ready to take a stand for your self and your soul? Get out of the darkness and step into your light.

These days, the crowd is increasingly breaking down and the time is coming to make your own road home. Are you ready to chart your individual course? The universe is waiting on you.

Warriors and Worriers

… are opposite sides of the same coin.

These are difficult times where it’s very easy to fall into fear and allow it to destroy us. But that doesn’t serve anyone. We’re not here to be enslaved by our fears; we are here to champion our dreams.

It helps to know that humans exist in a state of duality where we need to experience both positive and negative polarity in order to find our way in life. There are only 2 directions — light/love and dark/fear and fear has a purpose, it exists as a necessary state of resistance meant to drive us back towards the higher frequency of love. In other words, fear is a vibrational default that keeps us from collapsing into a sinkhole. We come up to it, experience it and we’re meant to re-direct ourselves away from it and back into the light.

But many of us get caught in that sinkhole and collapse into a pit of darkness because we think we have no other choice. But there is always a choice. We can either choose to feed the fear and become worriers or we can choose to run towards love and become warriors.

Warriors ascend in consciousness whereas worriers descend into fear.

Warriors don’t give up whereas worriers give in to the fear, pressure and pain.

Warriors focus on realizing their dreams whereas worriers let their greatest fears run their life.

Warriors find a way to conquer any obstacle in their way whereas worriers give their power over at the first sign of distress. 

Warriors don’t take no for an answer whereas worriers accept less than they deserve.

Warriors find a way to make their lives better whereas worriers decide it can never get better.

In life, it never matters what happens to you, all that matters is what you do with it. Are you a warrior or a worrier? Life never gets better as a worrier, it only gets worse. Sadness and despair can only beget more of the same. Where are you going in life? Warriors go places whereas worriers can only go into a downward spiral. No more excuses, it’s time to step into the role of warrior. The rest of your life depends on it.

Dancing With Fear

… keeps you locked in a nightmare.

Dancing with fear is always a choice. Fearful thoughts lock you into a lower vibrational state; they elicit negative emotions which keep you trapped and looping in a pain-induced reality. But that’s not the way we’re meant to live. Once we understand the role of our feelings, we can begin to master our true alignment.

Feelings are key to mastering fear.

Feelings are a vibrational gauge as to the level of your consciousness you are holding and how you feel, determines how in-phase or out-of-phase you are to your true self. So, if you are feeling fearful, you are out of alignment with your highest potential.

It’s all about perspective. You are always in control of your own alignment. So learn to take control over your fear. Don’t let yourself fall into fear, change the way you feel about it.

Instead of fearing a doomed potential, why not allow yourself to see it as a “Jedi-warrior training? “I am not afraid of this fear, I am here to master it.” To master anything you must learn to dance with it properly. Don’t look to run from your fears, look at them as opportunities to master your emotions.

Shifting out of a fearful state is as easy as finding a more positive feeling that you can feel good about. You are learning to dance a better dance with fear; one where you are the one leading. Controlling your feelings can help to control your emotions and give you control over that which you fear.

The Art of the Fall

… is in learning to get up faster.

We are all continually on a path of strength training and agility training because the fall is inevitable. It’s an integral part of how we humans learn and become better.

The secret to mastering the art of the fall, is to become highly agile and flexible so that when we do fall, we can move through the impact much more quickly and it doesn’t take us out.

In other words…

The harder you are on yourself, the harder it will be to come back from the fall.

The easier you can be on yourself, the more easefully you will come back from the fall.

Punishing or blaming yourself for your mistakes hardens you and locks you into a no-win position; whereas identifying the mistakes and using them as a benchmark for progress opens you up to mastery.

Learn to roll with the punches. If you are too rigid, those punches will knock you out. But if you’re able to ease up on your ego to get the lesson and get out, your agility/humility will catapult you forward.

No one likes to fall, but when you do so, learn to get up faster. Move through the curriculum of life’s lessons and stand strong so no one and nothing can ever push you over again.

There Are No Mistakes in Life

… there are only different experiences.

Bet you didn’t know that? 

Many of us labor over making decisions for fear of making a mistake. But that’s the problem. We think it’s safer to sit it out and wait for clarity, but it’s not. Hesitation breeds stagnancy and decision breeds flow. So, it almost doesn’t matter what decisions you make, it just matters that you make them and continue to move through your life.

There are no guarantees in life, there are only varied experiences. You are meant to flow through a series of experiences and garner the wisdom from them. Those experiences are what make you who you are. The process of choosing is the process of life and the act of choosing requires a process of flow.

This process of flow requires you to move. Momentum is the key. Once you are in action, the universe can steer you towards the outcome that is aligned for you, but if you sit it out on the bench, you become inert and stuck/stagnant so change can never come in. Everyone needs to flow; if you sit still, you block your progress by blocking the process.

It helps to know that it doesn’t matter what path you choose, all that matters is that you get onto one. Once in motion, the universe can guide you towards your highest timeline. But you must be in motion. The only thing the universe cannot do is pull you up off your bench; it cannot intervene in your free will.

You gotta be in it to win it. It never matters what choices you make, all that matters is that you make choices and move through the game of your life. There are no mistakes, only different experiences. Are you flowing through your life and moving through your experiences or are you blocking your own progress?

The Seeker of Truth

… sees through the web of lies.

Earth is a schoolroom. We are here to learn and to have an experience of ourselves in this 3D matrix of illusion. We are not meant to get lost in the illusion.

In this matrix, we are creating our reality with every word, thought and action we take. While in this matrix of illusion, we are searching for the truth of who we are, which becomes difficult when that illusion becomes hijacked with lies and deceit.

The seeker is only here to remember who they are. They seek truth, not just in themselves, but in the world around them. As with every classroom, there are tests along the way. Not everything the seeker experiences will be true to their soul. Discernment becomes a tool of enlightenment. So every good seeker must learn how to question everything. Truth vs. illusion… what is real to me? It only takes one slip up to give your authority over to a false god (gov’t, health authority), or a false prophet (media, corporations) and you can easily lose your way.

The seeker of truth, sees through all the lies. Never give your discernment away to any power outside of you. If you are truly seeking truth, you will never cease asking questions because you will see that the more you know, the more you realize you don’t know anything. If you think you know it all, you will forget to seek the truth and you will accept anyone else’s truth as your own. Keep questioning your reality until it makes sense. You are the one responsible for the truth you hold, no one else.

Being Offended

… is a defense mechanism of the EGO.

It’s a highly unconscious method of deflecting attention away from one’s own shadow work. It protects a fragile ego by deflecting attention away from the person who has the work to do and projecting it onto the one who presumably “offended them.” It’s a convenient distraction strategy, “look over there, not here.”

It’s much easier to blame someone else than it is to look in the mirror. You see, we always dislike in others what we unconsciously dislike about ourselves. It’s human nature.

When you know who you are, there is nothing to take offense to and no one who can ever offend you. But when your identity is tied to an ideology, your identity construct becomes weakened and easily hijacked.

Nothing anyone says or does has anything to do with you unless you make it about you. Being offended is a cop out; it shows people you are more interested in projecting blame than accepting responsibility for your own behavior which may or may not be unrelated.

Instead of being offended by others, why not put that energy into maintaining a healthy sense of self? When you know who you are, no one can ever challenge you. And if we all knew who we were, we wouldn’t spend anymore time projecting blame unto others, but would spend it in harmony with them.

Humanity Seeks Expansion

… but defaults to comfort.

It is in our nature as a soul to evolve, to become better, to push ourselves beyond our comfort zones into a field of infinite potential.

When we are healthy and not operating under extreme social trauma, we can think clearly and rationally and it allows for our evolution to higher states of consciousness. At our highest levels and in the absence of a collective psychosis, our capacities to transcend pain are efficient and abundant. But when we fall prey to a social trauma program, we trade our greatness for security. We give up on our happiness and we accept less than what we deserve. When we do this, we no longer walk the path of awakening consciousness, but fall blissfully back asleep, contented to allow a control system to ease our pain, quell our fears and give us “safety” restrictions which we happily accept in return for our freedoms.

This is not the path of humanity. This is not the path of the soul. Humanity is neither meant to control itself or be controlled. Humanity is sovereign. Every soul upon this planet has free will which can never be denied. And in turn, that free will has karmic repercussions. The choices you make and the actions you take will always return to you, be it in this life or the next.

As humanity, we must remember we are magical. We can be, do or have anything we want. We are aspects of pure light in a human body. What will we do with that? Will we stand up and believe in our power and honor our light OR will we give in to a control dynamic that tells us what we need to do in order to be healthy, happy or accepted as part of society?

Who should we trust? Ourselves or some other power? Humanity is meant to expand in it’s consciousness and evolve. Our magic is always waiting to be explored outside our comfort zone and it is only when we are pushed beyond our threshold of capacity that we can truly step into our own greatness. We never become great by giving into a control system that tells us how to operate. Don’t trade your eternal light for a glimmer of hope. It will never last. Once we stop defaulting to comfort and security, we can truly start living our best lives.

Welcome to the Days of Tribulation

… where every human is being tested.

These times represent the greatest trials of human consciousness. Every human being is being tested. No one is getting out of it. Everyone is here to face their own tribulations — their own shadows, their own darkness, their own patterning and their own fears. The more inner work you can face and transform, the higher level of consciousness you can reach and as a result, the higher the rewards in your material world.

We have it all wrong. We try to force the outer world to change, not realizing that it is our inner worlds which project into our outer experience. What is going on outside of you is always a projection of your own inner turmoil. So what we see in the collective these days is just a projection of humanity’s shadow — the shadow that we as individuals have chosen NOT to address, so it gets projected outside of us into the outer reality of the matrix.

The matrix is just playing out the movie of the darkness we hold inside and the reluctance we have to address that darkness. It has to go somewhere, so it gets projected outside of us where no one wants to take responsibility for it and everyone can blame each other. It’s pretty convenient. 

The truth is that our collective world outside us does not change until we change and heal our personal inner worlds. Stop blaming the gov’t, media, country, race, political party, medical establishment, school district, etc… start asking yourself what you can do to heal your own shadows. When we get to the place where we are no longer holding onto fear, hate, greed, false power, pride, righteousness, judgment, envy, jealousy, etc… we will no longer see these shadows play out in front of us. When those shadows disappear from our own hearts, they disappear from the world stage. 

Where are you in the processing of your own tribulation? Are you healing or still blaming others for where you are and for where things are in the world? Just note that the world doesn’t change until you change. Are you really ready to make a difference in the world? Be the change you want to see in the world or don’t bother.

Playing in the Shallow End

… doesn’t keep you safe.

It only provides you with a false sense of security.

It’s much easier for us to play in the superficial realm of life and never go deeper. We skim the surface of our consciousness and get stuck in the matrix playing out materiality and confusing it with progress.

Prioritizing material possessions as a symbol of success only keeps the true rewards of a “life well-lived” hidden from sight. The fact is that we are here to grow and evolve our souls, not get sucked into the vortex of materiality. The focus on material possessions as a means of seeking fulfillment only keeps us bound and trapped in lower karmic programming. It makes us a slave to our possessions. It doesn’t represent a true sense of abundance, which only comes from within, never outside you.

The truth is the deeper you go in your evolution, the darker it can get. Sometimes it’s hard to see the bottom. It doesn’t mean you’re going to drown; it only means there are shadows lurking beneath you that may need to be brought to the surface before you can get to the next level. Most people fear those depths. They fear going into that darkness because it’s painful to transmute. They prefer to stay in the shallow end where they feel safer. But the shallow end doesn’t keep you safe. It only makes the deep-end scarier.

At one point in our lives, we find ourself adrift in the deep-end without a raft. But once we are there and we have brought up to the surface our shadows, we find a serenity in the deep-end that we never knew possible. Fulfillment lies in the deep-end of life. Living in the shallow never gets you to the depths of yourself. You have to be willing to lose everything in order to gain more than you could have ever imagined. It’s called the dark night of the soul. That is the secret to personal fulfillment; it’s lies in the deep-end. How deep are you willing to go to find yourself?
