Why you must choose to live an inspired life rather than a motivated life.
I write this as the summer rain carresses the morning air while a light breeze swirls around me like a blessed gift.
I believe that to step aside from our subtle path, to do things for the money, to force our way to victory, despite the emotional wrath, is a grave error.
I believe, that there is only one correct path, and it must be the graceful intangible journey via our souls senses. This is not a forced matter though. It is an inspired matter.
This is why I dislike the idea of discipline and forced action, the grind that everyone seems to talk about.
Why do I say this? Is money not important?
Here's the thing. Money is important, and it does 'matter' (notice that I'm using a word that also means it appears in matter), though, it is not the primary point of focus and shouldn't be in anyones focus. Money is a byproduct of being, not being a byproduct of money.
Money is a byproduct of being, not being a byproduct of money.
When we choose to follow the most subtle and refined guidance, of the higher echelons of our heart, we are privy to a subtle expansion which is only good. Soul expansion.
When we follow money, our of fear, or greed, or any other base incentive, we set ourselves up for painful paths, struggles, hurts, accidents. Why so? Because when we follow the financial incentive rather than the elevation of the spirit, we reduce our subtle nature. We're not following our higher guidance, and because we're no longer following our north star, but instead a degree of profit, we open doors to places which rot the souls immaculate purity.
And step by step, we decend into places we don't want to be, simply for the bragging rights. For the possibility of feeling 'I'm better than...' which is a form of social contrast.
But on the other side, when we can let go, and reside in soul growth activities, subtle, fine, light and easy. When we can let go and trust the process without having to enforce our own agenda, we open doors and are invited onto beautiful journeys. Our soul takes the lead, and our body gets to come along for the ride.
You already know, that when the body and mind are in charge, the soul suffers.
When you choose to let the soul inspire you into action, what happens is you breath lifeforce into yourself, which feeds the seeds in your mind. You provide the 'right' environment for seedlings to become growths, to become healthy thought plants. Then what comes next is what breeds the manifestation of beauty. You grow thought tree's, which bear fruit over time. The fruit you bear, spreads and grows in turn. And the output of all of this internal growth, from a place of inspiration, is a valuable output of immesurable service to others. BECAUSE, it is done from a centered place of peace and wellbeing, rather from a place of lack.
The lack we experience, the lack that drives us -out of fear- to strive for money, is a lack of self attention which is illusion that we can fill the internal void by striving externally for monetary or material recompense.
The abundance we experience, comes from focussing fully on what fills us up, on what heals, and nurtures the soul and mind. From this place, we 'feel' full, we 'feel' abundant, because the externality we have comes simply from the attraction of all of the construct we create within.
