Just relax

Today I was just very tired so I didn’t feel like doing anything. My body just told me and tells me it had been enough and it is still enough.

So while writing now I’m still following discipline, like I want to write a post every day, but the only thing i feel is being tired and i can hardly think.

So maybe sometimes we should just listen to our body, just be satisfied that it has been enough, that we cannot be in action all the time we want to.

And I guess the last is still inspiration

Playing the victim

Today I was very annoyed as a special friend of mine told me that I am still playing the victim. I thought I had overcome that with all my goals and ideas and actions over the last half year, but it seems this type of thing, this pattern of mine is buried very, very deep in my thought patterns.

I was very happy he was my mirror in this as he showed me a very bad behavior pattern I seem to have. I can’t recall right now what exactly happened, what I said and what he mirrored back to me, but I was sure he was right and I am sure I want to change that, change it into some positive pattern.

Recently I am starting to realize that it is our belief system that defines us and the event today showed me something like that we are continuously doing or saying or thinking things that confirm our beliefs. But what if the belief is wrong? And I know many of my beliefs are wrong, so that’s also why many things in my life are not as I want them to be.

So yes, I will put some more information and maybe some exercises or tools or something about belief in this site as I am starting to believe that success or anything else starts with the beliefs that you have.

So what are your beliefs and are they supporting success or not?

An exercise I have in mind now is writing ten beliefs down now, state for each if it is supportive for success or not. Rewrite each belief that is non-supportive so it becomes supportive and read them aloud once a day. I did this some time ago and it was really working and as far as i remember I also mentioned this earlier already, but that doesn’t matter.

My fault

This morning I realized that one of my beliefs is that all the things I consider wrong in my life are my fault. And I realized that that belief may be wrong. That it might be possible, or is even likely that not everything that went wrong in my life is my fault.

A very weird experience, as I almost continuously feel an enormous pile of guilt based on that belief.

So what if I’m wrong.

What if you are wrong about a belief you may have, a belief that creates very bad feelings, a belief that leads nowhere, a belief that blocks the road, a belief that blocks everything good in your life and the life of others.

Today was not my day, or was it?

Most of my day today was stress, i just felt stress. The weird thing was, that finally I managed to start some work that I postponed for quite a while. So at least i started something I had postponed. Positive one would think.

However, at the end of the day I only felt negativity. And i realized that that was also what I ‘radiated’. I also realized that somehow indeed it all starts with ‘me’. That I couldn’t give or get what I wanted because of my state of being.

Then I got a text from someone who I believe can do things on a distance. So I ventured my frustration, but also asked him if he could send me some positive energy. He was willing to and he did. And it brought me in a more positive state of being, including tiredness from all that tension that I had felt.

So yes, ask and though shall be given.

My emotions are blocking me

It seems i am a very emotional person and it also seems it affects me a lot as my emotions are often blocking me. When things are not going as I want I feel that blocking emotion as tension in the upper part of my legs. And the feeling is so strong that it often blocks me to do anything.

Weird, how thoughts and body and mind work together, in a way are one and in a way are separate. My thoughts are telling me about the feeling and that there is something wrong. My body represents the feeling by the tense muscles in my legs. And while writing this, my mind seems to actually only notice the bodily tension and consider it negative. So in this case the feeling is physical, tense muscles.

Never realized that emotional type feelings could be only in the mind, but also represented by the body. Am asking myself now if there is any difference in those two.

Maybe good to write this article, as I never realized how it worked, how I can get moving again if I feel like this. And again, while writing I realize I am moving, because I am writing this article. So the feeling related to en represented by the tension in my legs has to do with something else I feel like I need to do or should be doing.

So while thinking further, the feeling is telling me I’m avoiding something. And I know a bit what it is, but not really. Again, while writing this I think it is related to things I don’t know how to solve, things i don’t want to solve, but feel I should solve.

And again, ‘should’ is a very bad word to me as it implies I’m doing something wrong, it creates guilt.

And not sure now how to end this post, how to make something inspiring out of this, or how to make an advice type thing of this.

Maybe just the last: be careful with the word ‘should’, towards yourself as well as towards others as I think guilt is a very bad feeling or emotion.

And maybe just be gentle and careful, with yourself and also with others.
