Everything is constantly moving. Even inanimate objects aren’t really motionless. They are just vibrating so rapidly they appear to be solid. That’s why it’s important to constantly reassess. Nothing stays constant. And fearing change won’t do you any good. It only holds you back from “what’s possible.” It keeps you rigid and promotes inflexibility and ultimately death.
Think about this…If you brood about change and hope everything stays the same (your life, relationships, children, practice and finances), how can you transform to a higher state of existence?
The answer is…You can’t!
Compare change to canoeing. You can’t just paddle into life’s river, throw out an anchor and expect to stay in the same place. The waves of change will move you – or worse, capsize the boat and transform it and you if you don’t pay attention.
You have to watch the waves, adjust your paddling, watch out for rocks, keep the canoe balanced and go where the current takes you. Don’t fight the current. All of us, in some way innately seek change. We read novels, go to movies and engage in sports that put us under the pump – it’s an inborn driver in human beings – it’s our way of evolving.
The cosmic joke on this is that there are no specific techniques or rituals that are required to invoke the power of transformation. There is no magic bullet. They are simply perspectives. There is nothing to DO it is a way of seeing what is.
In a real sense, they are intentions that attract experience that expands consciousness. They do not provide quick fixes and often there aren’t instant realizations. Often we are going through transformation when we least realise it. They are amplifiers of personal will and intention that clarify how one lives. Their transformative power is contained exclusively in the intent of their application. So when we intend to have the highest values honoured in a given circumstance we reflect that out the re and guess what happens – we start to notice it.
Identify the transformative opportunities going on in your life. Are you stressed out just thinking about them? Do you believe things are out of your control?
Really, being in control is a fallacy. The only thing you have control over is how you act towards transformative change. Change is the only constant. Once you grasp this fact, life becomes easier.
Let’s look at a way that you can identify, accept and work with change by embracing it.
1. Write them in a journal or notebook:
For Example: “It appears that a significant source of my daily plan may be at risk of drying up as my favourite family member who looks after my kids is moving interstate.”
2. Accept the change:
“This change is something over which I have no control and I will surrender to this situation, be grateful for it and see the opportunities that it brings and trust it will lead to even more trusted connections in the future.”
3. Determine over what you do have control:
“I can control my reaction to this change. I will put even more attention on connecting with more people in my sphere of influence and be grateful for that”.
4. Do this exercise for every transformation that you’re experiencing.
Don’t look at transformation as good or bad. Think of it as an opportunity to honour your life because everything happens for a reason. You may not see the reason it happened now, but you will when the time is right.
So, go about your day noticing all of those areas of your life, which are beckoning you to let go of the anchors bar and enter the unknown river of uncertainty. Surrender to the process that transforms your old self into your new self, your old life into your new life and embrace the change.
