Sometimes shame accompanies what society may deem failures. Events such as divorce, being fired, flunking out, going out of business, etc may draw unwarranted judgment from others.
The only thing that ultimately matters is what you draw from the experience. How are you processing it? How are you reframing it? How have you grown from it?
Remember, it’s always about how you receive things, not how others perceive them.
Not everything has a warning. As unfair as it may seem, sometimes you just don’t see it coming – whatever that “it” may be.
All that matters is how you receive it and how you then navigate. Its unexpected arrival doesn’t negate your ability to ultimately adapt.
Regardless of the circumstance, you can choose to partner with Life or view it as your adversary. This makes all the difference between life coming to you or life coming at you.
We’ve all had the experience of a sudden realization that stops us in our tracks. That’s because Truth (with a capital T) has the power to instantly pierce through constructs of the ego.
Your stories form the shelter in which you hide. They have built the armor you wear which you might mistake for protection.
It is only when Truth penetrates that you understand the previous constraints of that protection, aka self-deception.
Will you choose to patch up the armor or choose the breakthrough?
The mind is the key to everything. With its stories, it defines boundaries and sets up barriers. It decides what is possible and what is not. It is a tool, but without awareness it is a captor.
You may not be able to control your thoughts, but you can discern which ones work in your favor. Attend to those which enlarge your experience.
The topography of earth is nothing short of amazing. The beauty of mountains, the serenity of plains, and the wonder of waterfalls should serve as potent reminders.
That grandeur was created from events above and beneath the earth’s surface, the obvious and obscure, sometimes slow and sometimes sudden.
In your own life, this is echoed through forces seen and unseen, through flurries of activity and seemingly stagnant periods.
You, too, are constantly being shaped. Like the earth, the totality of those changes result in your own magnificence.
