This Week's Reflection

I mention boundaries in this week's Video and how we need to protect ourselves so that, with a clear and present mind, we do not allow other's toxicity poison us, how we need to not allow energy vampires extract our energy for their own ends.

Let's deal with other's "own ends" first for, to understand the energy dynamics involved, is to understand the importance of protecting ourselves.

Others want our attention. They may masqeurade that want as seeking our advice (which they don't want and will, generally speaking, ignore), their giving us their attention (their only thinking about themselves) or even kindness - now that last one is both devious and manipulative.

Others want our energy and attention to fill their own perceived gaps and inadequacies - it's all about them.

This may seem cruel. It may seem uncaring, unforgiving and intolerant. But we live in a world where 96% of people are robotically controlled by their lost minds. They don't know what they're doing but that doesn't make what they're doing remotely appropriate or acceptable.

You might say that we're at the mercy of ALI - Artificial Lack-of Intelligence!

That's why we need to be clear about our boundaries - how we manage "letting people in", how we look after the most important person in our lives... ourselves.

Being clear with others doesn't mean that we need to be confrontational or aggressive - we don't even need to be assertive - we just need to be clear!

Nor does clarity require that you boldly go where you haven't gone before! Neither bravery nor courage is required. Just a clear and present mind will, as in every aspect of your life, do the trick.
