What if you were to stop trying to prove yourself?

Want to experience true freedom?

From The Wide Awakening Weekly

“What would guide your actions if you were no longer trying to prove your worth, or to adhere to the definitions of who you are supposed to be? Only you can determine that, but I do know that you would finally be truly free.”

Hi There –

I was in beautiful Ireland last week with a group of amazing leaders, and was struck by the thirst, the heart and the open minds of the women and men I met. My heart is so full. I realized in our conversations that the only true jail we live in is the one in our mind. It’s the jail of the shoulds, have to’s, and need to’s, based on thousands of years of human history where we have collected the story for what it is to be a man or what it is to be a woman, or even what it is to be human.

Beyond the confines of the man-made paradigms lies the truth of who we are. We are Free. We are Expansive. We are Creative. We are Children of Life, living as adult 3-year-olds in wonderment at the privilege it is to be alive.

So, if you decided right now to hold all definitions of who you are very loosely, and to stop judging yourself against another’s definition (the billions of people who went before you), how much extra time would that create?

Hey, just bending time a little for you, adding hours to your day… just for something to do, since I had some extra time on my hands!

If this resonates for you, maybe it will for your friends, too…

‘Or betters’ present frequently when we simply remember ourselves as the embodied intention of everything we’ve ever lived in any life. They manifest when we remember our free will to choose, realizing our trajectory is the result of every past life, every desire, and every prayer you have ever prayed.

‘Or betters’ happen when you live like control is overrated. Understanding the resources of the omnipotent and omniscient Creation will deliver for you so far beyond anything your lovely (please don’t hate me) pea brain can intend is key. Your brain only accesses your history, the programs you learnt in school and paradigms you’ve created through the years, and who wants to ‘rinse and repeat’ that again?

Your greater Wisdom is constantly dancing with the trajectory you are on. You’re a living intention, without ever needing to use your brain to intend. Infinite Wisdom is in a dance with you, responding to your every thought and, perhaps ever more, to your actions. It’s responding to your life’s purpose. The thing is, you can’t mentally intend your way to an awesome life.

My two favorite words…

My two favorite words…

When our actions resonate with our purpose and we’re aligned with the Universe’s potential for us, it’s such an expansive feeling.

The feeling of expansiveness validates you are in flow.

The alignment with greater wisdom is translated through our body as feelings of ‘woo hoo’, ‘yes!’, goosebumps, or fun! It’s confirmation that we’re acting and thinking in line with our ‘highest and best’ life, using our skills and personality, creating in the most aligned way.

Being Happy 101

Being Happy 101

Being Happy 101 – With the next Flight School (our nine-month program) about to start, I’m aware of some pretty powerful insights about my own life, ten of them in fact!

One: Reacting to circumstances definitely leads to drama. Drama always takes me out of my knowing, distracting me from my connection with Innate Wisdom.

Two: My happiness absolutely cannot come from circumstances changing. My happiness must be accessible, regardless of circumstances. It cannot be dependent on how the world is, how the people in my life behave, or an expectation that everything should be perfect. Everything is becoming which, by definition, means it isn’t perfect.

Three: It’s not my job to carry the weight of the world. My job is to show up in love and compassion. It’s not my job to make other people happy but rather to learn to be grounded in my heart. It’s not my job to protect my heart but to emanate from the heart.
