Focus on your Greatness not your Circumstances!
Throughout our life journey circumstances will present themselves, some more intense than others. Ultimately circumstances happen as there is something for us to learn and grow from. The opportunity that exists in these moments is to view circumstances from the place within us that is our greatest resource, our objective psyche (our intuition/inner wisdom). This place knows that you can handle whatever is in front of you.
The alternative is to be drawn outside of yourself as your EGO and collective thought take you on a ride that will have you view your circumstances as bigger than you, insurmountable and unmanageable. When that happens, you begin to tell yourself things like “I’m a failure, I never accomplish anything,” etc., etc. Bottom line this is your EGO talking and not your uniqueness, what makes you great! You will not gain any wisdom from this place. All that is available in this place is to wallow deep in your circumstance. An endless cycle of negative mental models encouraging you to listen to how messed up your life is. The reality is, YOU are BIGGER than your circumstances and all the answers and solutions are within you.
I am not telling you to ignore what you are feeling. It is so important that you experience your experience so that your muscle memory can learn how to best support you through the process now and in the future. The potential here is to move through the process so that, if necessary, you can ask for support from others without being emotional. Others will listen and easily get it when you can clearly express what you are experiencing while you take full responsibility.
As mentioned, your muscle memory is so important in supporting you through the current and future circumstances. When you fully HAVE what you HAVE you then own the experience and are open to the wisdom that comes with it. Allow yourself to listen to your inner wisdom as it can have you see yourself as Bigger than your circumstances. Deep listening can happen in a truly mindful place. The following steps will support you in listening to your inner wisdom and the insights it has for you…
Go to a quiet place within yourself
Ask for guidance in this current circumstance
Be still, take a deep breath and then listen to your breathing… in and out.
The answers are within your breath
Write down the wisdom that comes to you
Thank your inner wisdom
Take action
Another part of this is how you view your results. I will start by saying that your results are your results… it is what it is! The only way to navigate through to internalize them successfully and positively is to have a constructive and objective relationship with your results. View them as events that have happened, and that you are fully responsible for… then learn and grow from them. Stay curious.
As you move forward your muscle memory and intuition will guide you. So when circumstances happen, focus on your greatness it will guide you to master what is happening in front of you.
Mastering your circumstances will be your ultimate prize and enlightenment will be your reward! These simple steps will support you in achieving mastery over your circumstances..
Experience your experience
Share your experience with others so they get it!
Be willing to be responsible for everything!
Have what you have! Allow the experience to melt into your muscle memory and listen to the insight that comes to you.
Have a constructive and objective relationship with your results
Listen to your objective psyche (your intuition)
Acknowledge the best in you, move forward in the wisdom that your intuition will guide you
All the very best to you on your journey and remember to focus on your greatness NOT your circumstances.
