Circumstances don’t matter…

“Circumstances don’t matter, only state of being matters”- Bashar

Are you paying enough attention to your state of being ? Your power lies in your ability to choose your state of being each moment, despite the external circumstances you are presented with.

As a creator, only you have the power to choose how you feel about something. Are you giving your power away constantly to negative emotions such as fear, frustration, anger, negativity, and lack? I used to do that along my journey as well. Yet, I finally realized it does not serve to me always be living life as a battle.

When I am presented with challenges in life now, I no longer fight -I surrender. I surrender to the lessons, the hidden blessings, the growth, the expansion, and the shift that life wants me to experience. Instead of engaging in intense drama and worry, I have learned how to influence the highest outcome (this is done by choosing a high vibrational frequency over a lower vibrational frequency).

This was easy to do once I adopted new beliefs about life. A more empowering belief I adopted was the belief that everything is here to help me.

 Everything in life is here to help us grow, expand, evolve and become our most powerful radiant selves. Just because we cannot see the reason with our limited minds, doesn’t mean the reason is not there.

Going back to what Bashar says, ONLY your state of being matters. The circumstances do not matter and will reflect your state of being if you can hold a solid vibration of trust, love, abundance, openness, and presence. 

The Tao of Courage

In Osho’s book “Courage: The Joy of Living Dangerously” he discusses how embracing the unknown is the only way one can live courageously.

To accept the challenge of the unknown, in spite of all fears, is courage. The fears are there, but if you go on accepting the challenge again and again, slowly slowly those fears disappear.

 

There is a tremendous amount of joy in the unknown. The unknown brings back the thrill in life, the adventurous part of the spirit is fed. If you are not happy with your life but are too afraid to make any significant changes, then you are not actually even living. You have given your power to the fear of the unknown instead of collecting your power from the joy of living in the mystery.

I believe that when we make courageous decisions geared in the direction of our own happiness and success, then we will be rewarded by life. Sure, quitting your job, moving across the country, and breaking off your secure relationship is scary as f***. Yet, staying in a situation for false security at the compromise of your soul is just plain dumb. Your soul actually wants to soar. Let it. Jump. Be courageous and take the risk. Each time you do, you develop more trust in yourself, life and the Universe.

Courage does not mean fearlessness. Fearlessness  will come naturally as you continue to make courageous decisions. Life will meet you, bless you and surprise you with miracles each time. You will develop trust and you will learn to accept that the unknown will take care of you.

The unknown is way less scary than the boring known you have been pretending to enjoy. Sure, challenges will arise. Personal problems will have to be looked at and cleared. People may call you irresponsible and crazy because you are triggering their own personal fears of the unknown. Yet, guess what? You will be stronger, deeper, and wiser than if you stayed.  Let go of what no longer makes your heart pump with passion. Security is just your mind trying to trap you. The real security in life is trusting in yourself. Trusting that you will be guided and directed to something even better than before. Oh, and only upgrades allowed!
