If you’re plagued by what negatively oriented people think, and believe that you become like them since “they’re everywhere,” may i ask you a question?
Thank you. I will.
You are surrounded by furniture, are you going to become a chair?
I didn’t think so.
Now for some more context to this which may bring you relief and a feeling of ease and confidence. And if it doesn’t, that’s fine, too. As always take what you prefer and leave the rest.
Here’s what I often see happen when someone begins consciously choosing their beliefs.
"Taylor, I love my life and follow my highest excitement and attract all I CPR: Choose - Prefer- Resonate with, but…"
I hear this type of thing quite a bit after I have worked with a client and they understand the formula and begin implementing it. Their reality starts reflecting how well it works. BEST EVER!
And then comes the "but." It usually sounds something like this (I’m paraphrasing from conversations over the past 25 years):
“Taylor, I’m doing everything you’ve taught me as best as I can in every moment and it’s going so well! I love my life so much! I never imagined I could live a life like this — doing what I love, attracting all I CPR: Choose – Prefer – Resonate with!”
And then they say:
“But…”
Whenever someone says “but,” I know a (false) belief* is about to appear.
(A *false belief is defined as segregative - generates a feeling of “not good.” A belief that’s true for you is integrative - feels good)
Not a truth.
A (false) belief.
I inevitably laugh when they come to the “but,” because I wonder, “But? How can there be a but after all that?”
I say so and we both laugh. Laughter is a very high vibration, right along with unconditional love. I highly recommend it.
Inevitably, the “but” translates into what “other people” think - aka the peanut gallery.
Once the peanut gallery concern is introduced, the conversation continues with something like this:
“I'm so happy and getting all I CPR: Choose - Prefer - Resonate with with ease, but other people ask me where I am going, what I am doing - and what I have planned for "the future." Then I unsuccessfully attempt to explain how I follow the formula and everything comes to me exactly when I CPR: Choose - Prefer - Resonate with it, not before and not after, and I am continually attracting my dream life. I say that there is no future, only now.
But they can’t hear me. They always go back to my future and my “plans.” I explain that I’ll know when I know, and suggest that they look at how happy and abundant I am. But they just don’t get it.”
Every session, every client, and every situation is different. After all, change is the fifth universal law - everything changes, except the first four laws. However, zooming out to a generality of “my coaching clients;" when this comes up, I remind my client that yes, I teach them about the five steps of conscious creation. Yes, I remind them what they knew at birth and then forgot (as we all agreed to do to be here now in 3D Earth school). Yes, I coached them about how conscious creation is how all reality is created, and they have the power to choose and create consciously what they CPR: Choose - Prefer - Resonate with. And/but, they are the one doing it. They need to take the action to see their belief reflected in reality.
After all, reality is just a mirror reflecting our beliefs back to us. I remind them that they changed their life. It is is they who are responsible for taking the action. And they do so with precision, grace, joy, love, light, laughter, ease, respect, appreciation and highest excitement.
After my client absorbs that essential understanding of the power they have and are demonstrating by their action, they tell me that if feels great when I say that it’s none of their business what other people think and it’s not their job to change or convince them; nor could they anyhow. They say they feel immense relief hearing these words, which I explain means that it’s in alignment with their higher mind, who abides on the mountain and sees the broader view.
Soon after they say something like, “But Taylor, I’m surrounded by people who think this way. So I then begin to think - and be - like them!”
You know what I say about that? You do because you read it above.
"So what!" (Great 2 word mantra) "You are surrounded by furniture, are you going to become a chair?”
Next comes some form of “But it’s difficult to be yourself.”
“It’s difficult to be yourself” is just a belief. It’s not difficult to be yourself. That is not inherently true. You have simply bought into a belief system you’re not enjoying. It’s not a “fact.” There are only five “facts” (the 5 Universal Laws); everything else is an opinion, a belief, a perspective. There's no such thing as an inherently difficult circumstance. Nothing has built in meaning. You assign it meaning with the definition you have ascribed to it.
When people say, “Everyone knows that,” about something you do not personally “know” and/or CPR: Choose - Prefer - Resonate with, you may say (to yourself, or aloud), “I don’t know that. That's not my truth. Might be true for you and that’s valid, not true for me.”
You get to choose what is true for you. Choose wisely, since your beliefs create your reality.
So the next time you hear yourself say “but,” pause for a moment.
Ask yourself:
Is that actually true for me?
Or is it simply a belief I learned somewhere along the way?
Then CPR: Choose – Prefer – Resonate with what is true for you.
And to introduce lightness (enlightenment is simply lightening up), ask yourself if you have ever morphed into a chair because you're surrounded by furniture.
