Out of work

Many of us will experience this.

Numbness is often a reaction, a sort of disbelief.

Self-pity can set in.

So called friends disappear, people do not really want to hear your story.

It is your reality so keeping your self-respect is critical.

You are unlikely to impress a potential employer if you are down and defeated.

Did your sense of humour desert you as well then go and get it back!

Life is not a job, job is part of life.

Life is not money, money is part of modern life.

Get in touch with your real values, those things you could not do while you were working, time to smell the flowers again.

Use your time wisely, spend time finding a solution to your situation, do something every day to advance this.

Give time to yourself consider what do I really want to do with my life?

What is truly important to me?

Find what is truly important to you then figure out how to make money from this activity. Not the other way around.

Good luck!

Partner care

Those of us with partners experience disharmony from time to time.

Some explode, some sulk, some cry, some even run away.

Whatever the issue there is something wrong.

Usually talk will not help at such a time of tension.

However to be there is usually helpful if not easy.

Notice how when one partner has a problem often the other is in a calmer state.
Indeed can observe the anger or violence.

Be smart let your partner's emotion pass.

Then find the correct time to talk about the cause if this is clear to you.

Spend some thought to ask yourself what is really being said here?

What is not being said?

How can we remove ego and find something helpful?

Am I missing something?

Are we able to join each other in reality?

Am I making enough effort?

Well are you?

Physical pain

Life brings pain.

There is no one who goes through life who does not experience pain.

There are of course many types of pain.

Physical pain.

Emotional pain.

Psychological pain.

The last two we will leave for another day.

Just talking about physical pain, of which we can experience many shades, from toothache, to child birth, to broken limbs.

Nature brings us physical pain to activate our systems and to let us know what is going on.

Whatever the physical pain learn this pain, go into every part of it. explore it in detail.

Why?

Because should you have the misfortune to have pain without the possibility of painkillers or morphine then learning your pain is one way to come through it.

Go into every detail, really learn it and if you can do this then something happens.

The pain feels to get less.





Pain is part of life be prepared!

First thought

What is the first thought that comes into your head each day?

Capture this thought, do not change it, judge it, or distort it.

This thought is clean, clear and useful.

Learn to capture that first thought each day.

In fact go one step further and go to sleep looking at anything that worries you.

Ask that you wake with some help or ideas.

That first thought might not look connected however if you examine it often you will see something, even if it does not seem possible.

Try it, act upon it.

Capture that first thought!

Hypnotism

Today there are plenty of people who practice hypnotism.

Warning!

Hypnotism is the manipulation of another human being.

It is the subjugation of their will to that of the hypnotist.

It also suppresses your personal will power, which can lead in the future to disorders such as sleep disorder, depression, feelings that you are not the same person.

It creates negative karma for the hypnotist.

Leave hypnotism alone.

10% revisited

When we talked about keeping 10% energy in reserve to deal with life problems this is what we meant.

If you let your emotions run away with you when confronted by problems then you will be venting energy thereby making good decisions more difficult and losing lots of energy.

If on the other hand you learn to keep your balance, to be in equanimity then you will have a better chance of dealing with the difficulty.

Said another way try to be the observer of yourself.

Observe yourself in the situation without becoming emotionally involved.

You lose little energy and can then draw down that ten percent we were talking about.

It is not kept inside you it is a reserve that we draw down from the Universe.

This resource is limitless once we know how to access it.

To draw it down relax and let your mind still from thinking.

Imagine pulling energy into your body and that it courses through you.

Easy to say and very difficult to do.

However this is certainly a life goal worth pursuing.

And yes, it is possible!

Alone

We are all alone and we are never alone.

Depending on our level of consciousness depends our feeling of aloneness.

The more evolved the more comfortable we are.

Why?

Because the release of fear in us marks our progress towards the light, towards nature if you will.

As we move towards the light so we understand our part and role in nature and thus identify with nature as our home, our all, love.

Fear propels us in the opposite direction, toward paranoia, isolation, depression, breakdown.

So keep working to understand and grow.

There is no finishing line just a spiral of understanding or misunderstanding, up or down.

Go for the light!

Smile this is your reality, now, today, use it wisely!

Anger

Does not just come and go.

Anger is stored inside us.

At a deep level it is our fears.

Uncoil it, let it go.

Find the things that make you angry, that push your buttons.

Look at them and see how they drive you.

Find the source of your angers.

Time to live in peace, anger does nothing for any of us.

Get the anger out.

Can love last?

Only with work and effort.

Like anything else in life our chances of success are directly proportional to the effort we put in.

Put effort into your relationships.

Be aware.

Be sensitive.

Surprise each other with little gestures.

Find new ways to tell each other you care.

Give each other attention so that you both can grow.

Repetition without growth leads to stagnation.

So try to find areas of mutual interest, these change over time so check that you both still care.

Bring love to all that you do with and for each other.

Ten percent reserve

If you buy a house then it is prudent to keep some money in reserve for contigencies.

If you need to buy contents for the house then it is also prudent to keep some money for contingencies.

In business and many other activities we also reserve contingencies.

So what reserves do you keep for life contingencies?

Ten percent?

Most of us keep nothing in reserve so that when life's problems hit we find ourselves angry, hurt or exploding.

Imagine that you have a reserve energy contingency so that when things go wrong next time you can relax and just draw down on that mental reserve.

It's just a way of looking at things however it just might take the frustration out of the next life problem that comes your way.

Just a thought!
