Beyond stress, striving and struggling…
As you stress, strive and struggle remember that who you think you are is only one aspect of who you are. What you think you must become - and all it’s holds… goals, dreams and ambitions are just one branch of life - the branch of the mind. The other aspect is not really about gathering, gaining, growing or even knowing - it is about another more subtle type of discovery. It is the the desire to find one self. It is a call to re-member. The challenge here is that you are looking for what is looking. You are looking to become that which you are. The more mindful you become of this play of life and light the the less weighed down by mind you will be. The more you will be awake and available to yourself. The dream chasing and the dreambuilding will continue, that is the nature of shape and form. But life, and thus your very essence, is the space as much as the substance, the unmanifest as well as the material.
On a ‘practical’ level as a ‘life coach and motivational speaker’ I meet people all the time who are pursuing goals on the one hand but seek the peace of mind that is self-realisation on the other. Both hands are of one body. Being aware of this and shifting attention out beyond the mind will soften the mental ties. This peaceful awareness is fulfilment.
