This Week's Reflection

 

You're of no use to anyone if you're not present. A simple statement of fact. This predicament - one that normal people are in all of the time without realising it - starts with you... both ways.

 

If you're not present, that's on you. It's a choice you made, albeit (normally) an automatic one which is, of course, a choice in itself. And the second way? Well, if you're not present, you're no use to you. You're getting in your own way, blinding yourself to the reality before your very eyes, disabling yourself from taking any real action.

 

And it's an awfully slippery slope from there. You're as dangerous as the proverbial loose cannon, as destructive as a steamroller. You might as well just chuck hand grenades into the room which is what we do when we lob reactive remarkes into an already reactive situation. Yes, you'vbe guessed it - when we're on Autopilot, along with everyone else, we're involved in a crapfest of reaction. If you don't like my choice of words, I could have chosen worse!!

 

On the other hand (there's always another hand!), you're a force for change when you are present. Presence changes everything. For a start, when you're present, you act - a world away from reaction. And your actions have a ripple effect: they ripple out into the world enabling you create and co-create opportunity and the synchronicity that leads you forward; they ripple out to others and, although they probably won't be able to put their finger on it, they'll feel the impact of your presence and feel the positive consequences of your actions. Your actions will have broken the chaing reactions.

 

And a whole new reality presents itself.
