This is a call to action. I'm not calling you to action, I'm reminding you that you, yourself, must constantly call yourself to action - the little actions that, because you get them right, mean a lot.

 

 

 

 

This Week's Reflection

 

It's not the thought that counts. If you know me at all, you'll know that that's actually obvious. Actions speak louder than pretty much anything else. We have to act, we have to act to remind ourselves to act and, then, we have to allow ourselves act effortlessly.

 

What a difference from the normal existence where reaction is... the norm!

 

When we act - as in take right action by doing the right thing (which, sometimes, might be not taking action, an action in itself!) - we engage with the flow of energetic reality in the moment. This is, to put it ever so bluntly, simply not possible until you're in flow (hence the call to action above).

 

If you are not in flow, your energy is contorted inward, you are "engaged" with the Conceptual Self.

Your objective, therefore, must be to do what it takes to experience flow - as in actually physically feel it - because, until you do, you don't know what I'm talking about. Yes, you may understand the science, the concepts and think that you "get it" - but until you feel it... you haven't.

 

Once you even catch a glimpse of it, you're in a different league. But, like in any sport, where you're promoted to a higher league, you then have to do what it takes every day to make sure you're not demoted again! It's an analogy that only half works because, in fact, once you experience flow, you can't unexperience it.

 

That said, you need to build on that experience so that the experience becomes consistent and ends up being a close-to-constant in your life.

 

Then, you're living.
