It is just a feeling thing.

I know how you feel because I used to feel this way too. It has taken me 50 years to learn the basic truths I am about to share with you. You don’t have to be as stubborn as me.

Firstly, you are not alone in the way you are feeling, most people on this earth in some way feel they are trying their heart out and not getting the results they aspire too. This is the norm, not the exception, so you are definitely not alone.

Some people like to believe they are made up of all the thoughts running around in their head. That these thoughts make us who we are as a human being. Well, I would like to suggest, that this is a misunderstanding. We are more to the point, made up of the choices we have made, based on what we have been told and believed at that time to be the truth. So, our beliefs determine our life experience based on the choices we have made. The interesting thing is most people don't even know why they make the choices they do.

For instance, do you know people who get angry any time things don't go their way? I bet you do, I think everyone knows someone like that. I have been like that. Well, it's very simple, it is most likely they learned it from someone else, most likely their parents, a close friend, work acquaintance etc. I would say if you take a look through your mind window at the way you react to each experience, each thought pattern you have, it has been a learned experience, not one you came up with all by yourself. If your answer is “yes”, that is totally ok, you are like most people alive on this earth today.

So the question I what to pose is: If you are not happy where you are and want to be somewhere else, then, what do you think is holding you back? We all want expansion is our lives, it is our true nature. When we are not in growth, not moving forward, we are usually not happy. Why is this?

We are all here to live a life based on freedom, freedom, results in a life of constant expansion giving us our only true purpose which is joy. The reason you don’t feel this joy in every moment, is simply, you are making choices that lead to resistance. Resistance is the opposite of freedom. So the real question you should be asking is. How do I make the choices that lead to a life of no resistance to what I want?

The great news is, we all have in us, the only guidance system we will ever need, that shows us how to make the choices, that lead us to the path of least resistance. You just have to be shown how to use it. If you can practice this every day, in every circumstance you encounter, you can have anything you want in life. I believe it is not stuff, cars, houses, you know, all the stuff. Most people misunderstand and think when I have the stuff, then I will be happy. I am here to say, it doesn’t work that way. You have to find who you are first, happiness then follows and once you are happy then you will appreciate the stuff that will come.

So what do I ask? Ahh, now that is the right question. You simply have to ask yourself, how do I feel in each moment I experience? You may ask: What do you mean how do I feel? That is the right question again. Wow, you are getting good at this. LOL. Well as I suggested earlier, you have a guidance system, your feelings. Your feelings are your ONLY true guidance system and they will never let you down. You just have to learn to trust them. Simply ask yourself in each situation how do I feel about this? Your guidance system, your feelings gives you the answer, Do I feel good or I don’t feel good. You just have to make the choice to feel good or not. The good feelings will always raise your energy, the not so good feelings will lower your energy.

If you put just a little thought into this, you will know the only truth. When you are feeling resistance, low energy, sick, not wanting to get out of bed in the morning I bet you don’t feel happy. And when you don’t feel happy, you are not in alignment with who you really are, your core being or your source energy. You see a happy person, a person ready to take on life and enjoy every moment no matter what happens, a human being who is in alignment with who they are, can not fail. This is because failure can not exist in a truly happy person.

The challenge most people face, especially men but most women as well, they simply don’t know how to interpret their feelings, their guidance system, and therefore they remain in limbo land constantly moving in and out of happiness and constantly feeling stuck in the same old merry go round. Their own resistance is stopping them from moving from where they are, to where they want to be. Sound familiar? I was like this almost every day. Maybe you may feel the same way too.

So here is what I have learned? I have learned that when I recognise what I am thinking about in each experience I have, then, I simply ask how do I feel about the thoughts I am having. Do the thoughts feel supportive, and raise my energy level or do the thoughts feel unsupportive and therefore lower my energy level? In other words, do the feelings get me closer to nonresistant joy and happiness; where I what to be or do they keep me stuck to where I am at? Am I rowing my boat with resistance upstream or flying downstream with no resistance, I simply have to make the choice.

Most people's life experience after they became aware as a person at around the age of seven, has always been this way. Constantly up and down, never really finding true peace, feeling happiness or experiencing real joy. They have never learned to navigate their own ship to a life of living happily ever after. Most seem to think, more than likely because others have told them so, that a life like that is out of reach, non-existent. What do they know, they only feel this way because they are not the captain of their own ship either. You see their guidance system is not in use, they have forgotten in most cases it even exists.

I am here to suggest, because I see not other truth, that your feelings and your ability to have constant access to your guidance system is the only way you can ever find who you really are. You see, you are unique in the universe, one of a kind, a true treasure and powerful creator of your life experience. You just have to firstly learn to use your feelings to help navigate down the river on the journey to least resistance and where your true greatness is waiting for you. The choice is yours and no one else can make it for you.
