Let Go, Create and Let It Flow
You can live the lifestyle that you want to live, you deserve the lifestyle you want to live but, you have to believe this is true. Belief/faith is the first step to creating your ideal life. Let go of what no longer serves you, create an idea of the life you want to live, and allow the positive ideas and energy flow. I offer this to you, even if only as a reminder: Our thoughts create our beliefs and our beliefs create our reality. What's one small belief that you can start taking on today? Here's an idea, think of a negative thought or fear you told yourself and then flip it to a positive. Here is an example: I am a successful blogger. That might seem like an obvious statement, but this is a new scary and rewarding experience for me. I offer my experience for those who need to let go so that they let it flow and grow.
Blogging serves as both my “Letting Go” and aligned action towards the life I want to live.
My ideal life includes making a sexy (yes, I said sexy) income from talking, sharing, and teaching. As a young child, my mother once told me I was way too expressive when I spoke and that sometimes came off as disrespectful, so I turned to journaling as a tool for release. Undergraduate School was the first time I began writing for professional and financial gains. During undergrad, I applied for an Undergraduate Research Award to do movement studies in West Africa. All recipients were required to do a presentation and a written paper. My research advisor forwarded me an email from one of the panel members that scared my ego for years… I’m still in recovery. In the email, the panel member very eloquently described the horrible status of my writing and theorized that my success as an artist was based solely on my performance ability. I took a proactive approach in finding resources to complete my writing obligation, but the idea “You are a horrible writer” was etched in my mind. This idea became one of the monsters referred to in “The Four Agreements”. You can only imagine my anxiety produced paralysis as I attempted to navigate the writing of my Master’s thesis, while the monster whispered in my mind.
I successfully completed an MFA thesis with the emotional and technical support advisors (Thank you for Dr. Dawn Tafari and Dr. Gamba Tafari) but the monster was incessant. To date, my writing includes too many things to name but the monster survives, luckily my daughter came through to help me deal with my F.E.A.R(False Evidence Appearing Real). In a very sweet, matter of fact way, she told me horrible writing might have been my past, but not my present. My personal growth mindset encourages me to reflect and experiment hence the Wooden Comb blog. I understand the I am not the best and accepting that I am not the worst. I am actively working to Let Go of the idea that no longer serves me replacing it with a new that allows positive energy to flow and get me that my closer to living the type of life I want to live.
What's one small belief that you can start taking on today? Here's an idea, think of a negative thought or fear you told yourself and then flip it to a positive. Here are some examples:
Fear: I will always be alone/lonely
New belief: I'm great company and I'm always in great company
Fear: I'm not good enough
New Belief: I'm more than enough
Fear: I never make enough money
New Belief: My next financial blessing is on its way
Get in the habit of speaking to and about yourself in a positive way, take an internal check to see how you feel. Look for things in your life that affirm these new positive beliefs and perform actions that align with these new positive beliefs.
In the words of the wise Toni Braxton: Let go, let it flow, let it flow, let it flow
Life is a process, so notice I said " Habit", it takes commitment and persistence to build a habit but what better thing to commit to.
