Holy energy shift! The calendar month change was FAR from arbitrary for this lady! Whoa!! I’d say, ‘yes’, I most definitely got back to work today in a way I haven’t experienced for weeks. And already it’s crystal clear that I am going to need to constantly remind myself that everything is different this time. Slower is better…MUCH better. In fact, slower is now a requirement.
Don’t rush this, Alyson. You do not want to miss one part of this. You know the lesson to be learned. You know…the one you’ve had about a half dozen shots at learning in the past year? The one you keep resisting with what little old-Game energy you still have lingering within (speaking both to the power of that little bit of negative energy AND to the strength of the energy it is taking to continue to resist when you know better). You know the lesson that is still waiting to be learned.
The dreaded, ‘b-word’. Yep…BALANCE! It surpassed ‘injury’ & ‘rest’ (which, due to their inability to exist as mutually exclusive concepts in my old story, are henceforth considered synonymous) as your least favorite word in the old way you engaged with the world. Which, in the new Game is code for, ‘yep…you’ve been right along to believe that we had it wrong in the high-achieving world about this concept.’ Whatever we were taught…it was untrue. Working 80 hours a week, even if you adore your work, is not balanced! And balance is absolutely crucial.
You know that ‘least favorite’ from the old-game translates into something you’ve always known on a deeper level needed to be changed about yourself, but for some reason you feared changing it. You also know that ‘least favorite’ means it will be challenging to make this change, but only if you resist. It doesn’t need to be as difficult as you are making it. This will not be hard if you just let go of whatever it is you think you are controlling by being so out of balance.
What are you trying to prove? To whom are you trying to prove it? Where are you racing towards? You KNOW these answers. You KNOW them. There is nothing to prove to anyone and no reason what-so-ever to rush anywhere at anytime. Just BE!
This here in front of you…your life right now and all of the different scenarios possible? This here is another chance for you to learn this lesson. And the craziest part about your resistance is that you have the chance (again) to learn this lesson in, pretty much, a dream state, if you so choose. I didn’t originally intend for that to serve as a double entendre, but it certainly can. ‘Dream state’ – I could be referring to the literal, physical state of FL, which many associate with a very happy ending to one’s life – i.e. achieving one’s dream of retiring in FL. AND, I could be referring to the more metaphorical dream state of living- i.e. ‘living the dream!’. You couldn’t have created a more beautiful way to learn this lesson. What are you waiting for?!
And don’t forget this…due to your significant and prolonged resistance to learning this lesson, (the one your life has been overtly throwing at you for over 5 years now) your awareness of this present opportunity is at an all-time high. There is zero denying what lies in front of you. Your understanding of the new Game means that you know you will not achieve ultimate peace and be able to begin to fully live your ‘new story’ until you learn this lesson. No more blaming of bad habits from your old story. A habit ceases being a habit once you can catch yourself. And you are at a point where you are now able to catch yourself EVERY time you are choosing imbalance.
But…here is the most incredible, other side of that awareness coin. Also due to your olympic gold performance of resistance, you now have the chance to experience more beauty than you can yet imagine. This part of your journey – coming into REAL balance – has the chance of being THE most beautiful time of your life yet. Why? Because when you live consciously, you know that NOTHING is accidental. NOTHING is coincidental. EVERYTHING and EVERYONE is crossing your path for a reason. If you add to this level of consciousness, actual awareness of a specific lesson being learned – your exact situation at present – you will not believe what this will feel like as you actively participate in the process and feel yourself change.
You KNOW that the learning of this lesson, which, you must demonstrate with your life choices and the creation of new patterns, will allow the parts of that dream of yours that are still eluding you, to become “real”. Your task is simply to learn how to walk the walk of balance. You need to be living it and you cannot bull shit the Universe. This has to be the real deal.
Balance … slowing down … trusting that everything and everyone that is meant to be ‘there’ will be ‘there’ once you get ‘there’. Because remember…there is no THERE! You are only here! Be HERE completely. Take care of yourself and love yourself first so that you can be all that you are meant to be to others. In your situation right now, Alyson…you will not be able to make this dream come true…to be the inspiration you know you are able/meant to be to so many unless you are taking proper care of yourself.
All day, every day, for 30 days, choose love. You don’t struggle in doing this for others. Your struggle has been in doing this for YOURSELF! But you can only love others to the extent that you love yourself. Yes…you are loving yourself more than ever before and it is at a crazy high level, BUT…you know you are not quite yet doing this all the way to your core. You MUST love yourself completely and wholly first to be the best you can be for others.
With your knowledge of the new Game, this past amazing year of experience in playing the new Game at a very high level, AND your self-awareness…you are READY to finally learn this lesson. Learn it so you can get on with the insanely AMAZING life you have created for yourself but just keep teasing yourself with because of your lack of balance.
You just gotta let go. That is always going to be the choice that keeps you in balance. You are now 100% aware of this boat of opportunity. Should you choose to miss it, there will be another. But why wait any longer? Just let the fuck go!! YOU ARE READY!
