Why Control Doesn’t Work

The human race is usually so consumed with trying to gain control over our lives that what happens is that we are blocking flow. We end up controlling our lives in negative ways because we have closed off the Universal flow. We only hold within us a limited amount of knowledge, but when we open up to Universal knowledge, our lives become easier. This is because when we are working from our limitedControlling minds and trying to control our lives with these limited minds, we encounter many hardships because we don’t really know how to proceed. We then move through life having to constantly learn from our mistakes because without infinite knowledge, we will of course need to gain more knowledge in order to accomplish our goals.

When you trust, you open yourself up and you allow the Universe to lead you along the right path by letting control go. It’s not an easy thing for most of us to wrap our heads around, however, because we feel that letting go of that control will mean our lives might go spiraling out of control. The opposite is actually true however.

Here’s an example of controlling your life in negative ways. Do you know of someone in your life who has decided that happiness isn’t in the cards for them so they’ve just given up and resigned themselves to an unhappy life. Perhaps they are unhappy in their job but the thoughts of leaving it seems too scary so they just keep on enduring. Having that mindset cancels out all possibilities. How can there be possibilities when there is such an unwillingness to allow them to come into your life? They are being blocked off. You are only controlling your life in a negative way.

Or maybe you know someone who is bound and determined to accomplish something and they just keep struggling because it never seems to happen. I am by no means saying that you should not have goals and strive to achieve things that you want. Of course you should. But the biggest thing you need to do is trust. Give up the control. That person struggling to achieve something so hard may be striving so hard because she is trying to do it in one certain way and that’s the only way she sees. She is not open. She’s trying to pound a square peg into a round hole and the Universe is saying, “no wait, here’s a round one.” And she’s saying, “No thanks, I’m gonna make this one work, damn it!” You see, you must remain open. When you do, you will have gotten in the flow of life and things will come to you with ease.

When you learn to release the control so that you can allow in possibilities and transformation, you will find that new opportunities come your way and new ideas and people come into your life who can help you. All these wonderful things come to you because you’ve opened a door instead of shutting it and saying “oh well, this is my life.”

Remember, it might not work your way, but your way might not be the best way for you. Be open to other ways.

The Judgment Epidemic

How often do you judge people in your daily life? My guess is that if you really look closely, you would have to say “a lot.” Some of us don’t even realize how often weJudgment judge others or even ourselves. Almost every moment is consumed with it. We are so convinced that we are separate from everyone else and because of it, we adopt judgment as a means to make ourselves right. When someone does something differently from us, we tend to judge it as wrong because otherwise we think it makes us wrong. None of that is true however. We are not separate. We are all one. We are not wrong if someone else is right. There are many ways to accomplish one thing, and who is to say that your way is more right than someone else’s.

Judgment is one of the greatest problems in our world as far as I am concerned. And I am guilty of doing it too! It is not easy to avoid judging others and it is very difficult to not judge yourself. Our egos want us to judge because it keeps up the illusion of separateness, which is what the ego thrives on. The problem is that when you judge, you stifle growth. All we are here to do on this planet is to grow. This is an earth school. We are not here to be perfect. We are here to grow into the soul that we are. Why do we judge others and ourselves when we are not coming across as “perfect?” That only holds that person or yourself back from growing and being all that they can be.

The simplest judgment can have lasting effects on people. Don’t do it! When you find yourself judging others, tell yourself to be a bigger person and leave that person be. When you begin to judge others less, you will find that you begin to no longer fear others will judge you. And that sets you free as far as fear is concerned because when you no longer fear what others think, you will feel free to do what you want without the fear that is usually attached to it.

Release The Question “How?”

One thing that we all get caught up in is in the “how.” How are we going toGot It! accomplish that goal? How can we possibly change our situation, which feels so hopeless?

I would like to challenge you to release the “how.” When you are worried
about the “how,” changing your life will be difficult and overwhelming. Keep your focus on the “why.” Why do you want what you want?

By keeping your focus on the “why,” you tap into the positive energies and you will feel uplifted and excited. You don’t have to know how it will all play out. Just focus on why you want your goal and how you will feel when you achieve it. Then, be open and allow the Universe to bring to you what you need to transform your life.

It will happen when you let the “how” go and consciously be aware of new insights, “coincidences” and opportunities that present themselves to you. As you do that, you will know intuitively how to proceed and you won’t be crippled with fear. That is how you stay in the flow so that you can transform your life with ease and joy, and it will be so fun to see how the journey unfolds.

Will You Let Fear Define You?

Do you have an inner calling to do something out of your comfort zone? Do you tell yourself not to bother because its too scary to make the changes? Is fear getting in your way? Most of us will answer yes to that question because we all have fears that are holding us back from being who we really want to be.

Fearless Man But let me ask you, how does it feel to let that fear define who you are? In order to be fulfilled, we all have fears that we need to push through. Think about all of the great inspirational stories you hear about people transforming their lives. It always involves working through their fears, and that is what makes the story so great and so inspirational. Without the fear, it would be a dull and boring story.

Do you want your life to be a dull and boring story? Do you want to sit by watching your dreams pass you by because you don’t want to face your fears? I doubt it! You can transform your life simply by deciding that your fears don’t define you; they only hold you back from being you. Decide that your dreams will define you instead! Be willing to step out of your comfort zone and face your fears. That is when you will feel alive and that is when your life will be an exciting, inspirational journey.

Do you need a partner to help you work through your fears? You never have to do it on your own – call or email me today for a risk free life coaching session, so that you can start living the life you crave.
