Living without the ego

What does it take to live without the ego.

What is the ego. Can we go as far to say any thought is ego?
Yes, for you to have the thought, you see it through your own vision and perception of the world, which is ego.
So, to live without the ego, is to live here, now. To live without thoughts, and just be.

Sounds daunting? What if true freedom and salvation lies in that space, is it not worth it then? What if all suffering ends in that space, is it not worth it.
When will it be worth it it?

It is worth 'thinking' about so long.

What is the ego? It is that which you are not.

Keep pondering.

Retiring at 32 - A journey of becoming

As some of you know, I have recently embarked on an interesting journey of becoming. 

I have left my job

Sold my possessions

And remapped my mind & way thinking

Why did I do that? I was looking for answers. Answers to life, the universe, the “why” to everything. Just to have found the simplest answers to them all. (Topic for another discussion)

At first I thought the answers would be sooo lengthy and complicated that only scientists can discover them.

Lucky not

On my journey, I seeked high and low for the answers. The deeper I went, the more answers I got. It was NEVER ending to both extremes, up and down.

Then one day, I had this realisation, it is not a place, it sis something to be found somewhere.

It is a feeling. ‘Heaven’ is a feeling, not a place. You can’t find it by looking for it, you can only find it by being it. You can never get there, you can only be there.

Wow, when I grasped this concept, I started working on myself to further understand and achieve this wonderful state.

This universe is so amazing and vast, you will fins any and every answer you look for. So start looking for better answers.

·        Worrying if aliens are looking at us is unnecessary

·        Worrying if cats rule the world is unnecessary

·        Worrying if your partner is cheating on you, is unnecessary

Where do we stop?

Stop, take deep breath, and notice where you are. Feel the feel. Hear the sounds. See the colours. Smell the fragrances. Just be.

Feel that? That is life.

So why did I do what I did?

Because

I am going to live. I am going to Be.

Because there is nothing else to do than just be. Its human Being after all.

I made the decision to actively practice all the concepts I have learned over the years. All my experiences and inner guidance. I

I have made this decision in May 2018, and 6months later I resigned from my job as a new person.

Still not answering the why? I do not agree with the way the world is being run now. We are not meant to love like this, to suffer like this. (Anything less than constant pure love is suffering J )We were meant to live a fuller and freer life.

I decided to pursue that, and I found it. It was inside, not on top. J

It takes effort at the start to feel love and joy constantly. I mean, we work with other people that mess up all the time.

So I thought, if I can get a job or position/role where I can do what want, then I’ll surely be happy.

Apparently not.

For me to feel love and joy and passion and contentment etc every second of the day, I must do something what I truly love and find passionate.

Si I asked myself. What would I love to do? What am I currently doing for free, which other people are asking money for? What brings tears of joy to my eyes?

And I found I love sharing my knowledge and wisdom with other people, helping them grow and achieve everything they ever wanted to achieve. Seeing the joy of possibilities shoot up on their eyes when they unlock net opportunities and possibilities.

The closest profession I found to that, was life coaching. I did a course and was amazing.

No I asked, how am I going to make money from this? Surely I must survive…

Here is the funny thing.

So every time I think of ways to make money from this “skill/talent”, my attention is away from giving and helping.

It frustrates me to ‘bog’ my mind and life down with thoughts like that.

SO I decided I will love, be and help people where they are ready and want assistance to see and become their brilliance.

I feel freer if I don’t think about making or accumulating money. I am open for donations however. Hehe

So, that is how I came to be where I am now. And I love it.

I now help people either achieve their dreams and desires or help people see their true purpose and passion in life.

Have an amazing journey.

Why do some stop achieving after school?

Ever wondered where your achievements dissapeared too when you finished school and started working?
When we were kids, we had all these achievements ahead of us, eating on our own, walking, running, talking, riding bike, playing sports etc.
These achievements were mostly driven by our parents seeing that they knew what was required for us.

Now, did you continue to create situations for you to keep achieving after school?
What have you achieved after school? Except a job. What else?

Start creating situations for you to achieve again, and your life will feel more fullfilled and accomplished. The more frequent, the more you will feel accomplishment.

Examples, go to the gym, willingly and with a goal in mind. You cant achieve by just being there, what are you there to do.
Art, paint, read, wright. There are sooo many things to achieve in, just remember not to measure yourself on the values of the world around you , but rather instead on your own values that support you and your happyness.

Failing to success?

Failure should not be part of your vocabulary.
It cant be good to fail many times to reach success.?
You inherently dont like to fail, so why would you force yourself too?
"start to like failing to get to success." why would you do that to yourself?

I say change it. We are not a failure... to success. You are already a success, see it, own it.

It is all just challenges and building blocks leading to your end result/desired state.

There is no such thing as failure on your journey to success, only challenges in different degrees.

You only fail once you completely given up.
If you tried something and it didnt work, then its just learning and understanding. It is not failing.

The alternative suggestion would be to rather use a positive connection. Its easier to change a positive connection to a more positive connection than a negative connection to a positive.
Use your brain wisely, and work with it.

*You are not failing, you are succeeding faster
*Its a challenge to prepare you for the next part of the journey to your result/desired state. Without overcoming that challenge, you cant proceed to the next part.

It is definitely not failing. Succeeding is a joyfull experience, and connecting it with a traditionally fearfull experience can be damaginging to some.

Whats your thoughts?
Put yourself in both perspectives.

Have a wonderfull evening.

Glutony and abundance

Thought of the day.

Same same but not similar

Glutony is overeating. Eating like there is no tomorrow.
Abundance meanse you always have enough. A large quantity of something.
Glutony has its own name, as overeating is damaging to your body and mind. If over eating was not bad for you, then it would have been called 'abundance' eating.
So, to be abundant, you have enough and always will have enough.
Glutony is to eat and eat, possibly for the reason that you think/believe you will not get another chance at this meal. And so stuff your face.

What is thebthin line between glutony and abundance?
Glutony - now
Abundance - always

So, chose abundance, there is always enough. Believe that your next meal will be even more spectacular than the current one. Believe you are worth it.

We live in abundance, claim yours now.

Why would we choose to be untidy?

Why would we choose to be untidy?

Think about this. Why are you not neat and tidy at times? Leaving plates or cups for longer than it should, not emptying the rubbish bins frequently enough, leaving clothes on the floor, not picking up your clothes next to the rubbish bin and on..

Notice the thought you have when you look at that dirty cup, “Not now, I’ll do it when I walk past again”, or “I’ll do it when I leave the room.”etc.

We all know these thoughts but we do not always recognise them in the moment.

Perhaps one reason is, we want to be busy? Now follow me, a part of the Ego wants to feel busy to think it is productive. We all associate busyness with productiveness, and we know it’s not true as we all know someone that is always busy but never delivers.

If you take your thought deeper, there is sense that you say you are too busy now to take the cup to the kitchen. Busy watching a show on TV/computer, lying on the bed etc.

Why can’t you take the cups back when the show is finished? Why do you have to go to bed now or shower first?

Why can’t you pick up the cup when you eventually walk past it? For a second time, 3^rd time… What are you too busy with now?

Eventually you have to clean the whole place, from top to bottom. You complain that it takes you an entire day to clean your home, but don’t stop to think that you created this.

You filled up your time with meaningless tasks that could have been completed already. It takes lose to extra effort to grab a cup on the way to the kitchen. Bending down to throw your clothes in the basket.

However, on the other hand, we have filled our time again to be busy, to satisfy the ego. We do not sit still without anything to do.

If we do not create things to keep us busy, our habitual and social patterns will take over and create what we know how to do. Remembering our ego is lazy and wants quick wins. Cleaning the entire house is less work than learning a new skill, a new language, spending time with the kids/loved ones.

If you keep these principles in mind, life will become much easier.

So, how do you want to keep yourself busy? Do YOU want to keep yourself busy, or your ego.

You can decide, you are either going to be a slave to your ego or the master of your destiny. Choose wisely.

Love

"But I'm working on it"...

How long have you been saying "I'm working on it"? 

Are you also guilty of falling in the subtle procrastination trap?

What issue have you been working on for quite some time and doesn't seem to get resolved? 
Relationship issues, Parent issues, Child issues, friends etc. 
How long have you been saying your working on it? Can you justify why it needs to take that long to resolve? 
What will the impact be if you resolve the issue now, immediately? What do you expect the outcome to be? How certain are you about the outcome? If your uncertain about the outcome, is that not maybe a reason why you are not making progress to resolve the perceived issue? How certain do you have to be to get the outcome you want? Why do you think you will not get the outcome you want? 
(Ask yourself these questions honestly, wright it down to get the most out of you. (you can burn the paper afterwords if you desire, although i would suggest to do the writing in your daily journal).) 

The thing is to know and understand you are the outcome already. If you worry about the outcome, you can just as well use that time to think of the outcome you desire. 

How can we start to change this, "I'm working on it" mentality;

• Identify what your desired outcome must be
• Work out an action plan on what you will need to do to achieve your outcome. I.e. don't shout at the kids/wide first thing when you get home...
• Identify your thought patterns associated with this perceived issue and work out an ideal thought pattern to replace the thoughts and feelings not inline with your desired outcome. 
• Visualize the new ideal outcome/situation in your life and feel it in your life. 
• Forget the thought, words and meaning of "Im working on it" and replace it with something more in the line "its happening now" thought framework. 

At the end of the day, the "Im working on it" is just an excuse we use to keep doing the same things without feeling obvious guilt about it. 

Don't be that person anymore. Be the new you, be awesome. Be the "I have done that" person.Tell stories instead if boring's.  

Life is not always easy, but its always worth it. Find the worth and feel the joy.
