The Heaviest…

Denial

There is something heavy upon the soul who seeks self-improvement, love, happiness, freedom to be him/herself. There is such a thing as judging yourself based on your past, based on who you were, based on the burdens you may carry.

This is not self-love, but self-denial. Denying who you are. Ignoring who you are to remain attached to who you were. This denial is the heaviest burden, because it is deceitful. You are a moment in evolution, this moment.

Just observe

Life is moment after moment after moment. You are but one moment, which means the only burden guiding human beings to failure is the attachment to the past. You were is gone. You are is now. You will be is about who you are now.

There is no burden like this one, the one your mind creates and brings upon you making it real. Just observe who you were, smile at the experience whatever it was, and detach yourself from it. How??

Detach yourself from it by loving who you are now, which means forgiving and letting go who you were. Because the only freedom you can get lies in the you who is now. The person you are now cannot remain tainted with the person who you were/with all the screaming remnants from the past.

Initiating change

Find the Strength

Overthinking is what creates confusion and fear. Change must be an act. Don’t think about how hard, or how strange, or how challenging it will be. But find the strength in your heart, not in your mind.

I know from personal experience that one must initiate change without analyzing to death every scenario that could or could not happen. The intellectual mind has no chance of self-fulfillment.

This overthinking cripples you, it makes you find excuses, it strengthens your ego to create biased “logic” to keep you chained to old habits. You really go nowhere like this.

Act on It

Love and happiness is in you, but is known through a mental expansion, an open-mindedness, new perspectives and experiences. You only find these when you welcome and initiate change in your life.

Needless to say, nobody knows for certain what the future holds, because it is a creation based on choices you must make now. New, bold, challenging choices that lead to great change. More than dreaming it, acting on it.

Energy & Choices

A thing needed

In life, in all aspect, nothing is needed more than patience. Most of the time, that is what is required to move on. To start anew, things need to evolve at their own pace; and all questions will be answered at the right moment.

We are capable of doing anything, but the mind must be disciplined through patience first. That is rising above your own psychological and emotional misery, which is attachment to pleasure and to pain from your past, and attachment to your desires and frustrations about what may or may not come.

A thing we choose

The path is whatever you choose, wherever your actions take you, and it involves the state of your mind first. What creates your life is your actions, but the source of that life is the energy you create. Positive energy will create positive actions. Negative energy will create negative actions.

That is how one creates one’s life. A good life, a life we want. A not so good life, a life we learn to despise. It all starts in Creation. Creation begins in the mind. The mind is its own content. The content is based on your positivity or negativity. That is why choice is each moment, and it begins in the mind.

The One Bad Habit

So much of it

And why is it…? ? Over and over again. So much thinking, pondering, trying to resolve, demanding ourselves to know why it isn’t working. Most of our lives is spent like this. Most of the time we are not even aware of this damaging habit.

Damaging habit because it stresses us, it might make us create false scenarios in our heads. Then negative feelings, depression, doubt, self-victimization. These make our lives seem like a burden, like something that cannot be changed. I’ve been there. You’ve been there.

But it’s about listening

It is not really nature to fall for this trick, this programming of the mind, instead of listening to intuition, to the buried voices of nourishment, hope and positivity that we all have deep inside.

It’s easy to listen to intuition when everything goes as expected in your life though. It’s not that easy when events deviate from what we want, right?? So, this is the challenge we all face. Look at it as a marathon, not a race.

And it is always there

Don’t rush yourself. Take your time. Forgive yourself. We all make mistakes. The key is to go back and remind ourselves to become aware, to stay aware. Each time, like this, we strengthen this muscle of the mind, like we can strengthen a muscle in the body by repetition.

And so, that is how intuition is strengthened, by slowly and patiently getting rid of the clutter in your mind, by weakening the programming/the habit of the mind of overthinking. The power is always there, just buried deep under intellectual layers that make us question our own capacities to feel accomplished and happy.

Help yourself

A new mind

Nobody in life gets exactly what they wanted, but if you remain open-minded and let your heart bloom, regardless of the events around you, then you’ll become aware of opportunities you hadn’t seen before. This is guiding you and your life.

A poor mindset, I know by personal experience, is changed by knowledge. The right knowledge that you need. Seek that knowledge. Learn new ways. Expand your mind. Widen your vision. Dare let go of your past and expand your horizon.

The right knowledge

That’s all it takes. You take the good and the bad, then make the best version of yourself. You don’t wait for the right opportunities to fall on your lap, or for the perfect situation to arrive in your life. You either change yourself, through patience and commitment, or you let the events around you change you.

And it’s all done through imagination. You imagine clearly a better life for yourself, even if it seems impossible. Then you seek the right knowledge, whatever that is. The right knowledge will help you understand how to work towards something better.

This will help you let go of your prejudice and negative mindset, which will make you more sensitive to yourself, to the world around you, to love and to happiness. Because life is just a creation of your mind, and just a projection of the way you feel about yourself, so you will experience whatever you allow yours to create for yourself.

The Birth of God

Photo by Daniel Reche on Pexels.com

What the average man seeks

God is born from the thought of the average man. Man, deep inside is afraid of what he doesn’t understand about his own origins, outer space beyond the stars, the unknown in his own world.

Man’s intellectual mind overthinks, seeks answers to irrelevant questions. He doesn’t seek to become a better human being, but he looks for something fantastical, above his own ignorance.

Born from his fear

Because he doesn’t know himself. So, because he doesn’t know himself, he imagines, creates, gives a personality and a mind to this god/and or gods.

He seeks someone that can give him the light that he desperately needs because he feels without it inside. So, God is, in all man’s rantings and schemes, a direct product of man’s fear.

Great ideas

Ideas

Ideas are all around us. What is that mean…?? Well, ideas are thoughts that build, that create, that inspire, that help you connect to yourself and to the world at some level. You can choose to use that idea however you like. But the greatest ideas bring inspiration to create and unite.

A new recipe. A plot twist. Some creative thought to connect more with your loved ones. Some revelation to ease and relax your anxious mind. So, coming to it, they’re all around us because you can get ideas from your own life–from walking outside, from watching a movie, from reading a book, from a conversation with a family member, etc.

Manifesting ideas

As an author, I understand ideas. After all, no human being could function without ideas (thoughts). But, to create great ideas (inspiring ideas), I must nourish them. I nourish them by having good discipline. By thinking positively. By remaining hopeful.

By acting good towards myself, which means by having habits of health daily. And, as I mentioned, by listening, observing, interacting with all that’s around me. I can’t expect to just sit down and become flooded by good and inspiring ideas.

I must go and create them myself, not wait for some miracle or magic event from the heavens. As an author, for example, I know that Writer’s Block only comes to the ones who sit down and just expect great ideas to appear magically. But, to the ones who take everything they experience around them and use it for inspiration, Writer’s Block is a primitive and nonexistent belief. So, create ideas at all times, observe and learn.

Self-discipline to happiness.

We are born to discover life, to discover happiness in life. It is in ourselves, but our minds need something to do, something to bring discipline to our lives; thus we can be focused and discover that happiness within ourselves. If we have no discipline in our lives, or if we have no self-discipline, then our minds get restless, frustrated in life; and then we start building self-pity, anger, anxiety.

So, the mind is just like a child. If a child is not given structure and discipline by his parents, then the child becomes spoiled, obnoxious, impulsive and obstinate; and even worse, he starts becoming a bully and annoying others. The mind then must have the structure needed to be more self-aware, which is to look inwardly.

If the mind seeks love and happiness in others, in money, in relationships, in society, then the same mind loses self-awareness, because it starts focusing outwardly and not inwardly. So, to stay and focus inwardly is extremely important to have goals. Having goals requires self-discipline, because you must focus daily on strengthening that goal or goals.

You must be patient and work little by little, learn everything you can while paying attention to the smallest details. This structures the mind. This strengthens the mind. This helps you become more self-aware. Self-awareness is looking within to finally discover that happiness.

It’s just a “small lie”…

Lies, deception, cheating, hiding the truth. Even if you call it “a small lie.” All this, besides being immoral and hurting others, builds a subconscious program. In time, it feels normal to lie, even a little. The mind takes your behavior and, without your consent, builds a place for it. This is a real, physiological place in your brain. And now is there. And without you being aware it transforms you.

It becomes a “normal behavior” for you. And once it becomes a normal for you, it slowly cements like an addiction. Of course, for you is not an addiction. For you is harmless, and your normal, and something which has no importance. This makes you lose self-awareness. This blinds you to your own corruption. This is the illusion you build for yourself.

Others can see this corrupted behavior in you, but because it has transformed into your own mental programming you do not see it as corruption. This is why is so important to become aware even of the smallest patterns of thoughts in your mind. Don’t just do things without thinking. Study your own mental programs carefully.

The best mind

So, what is mindset…?? What is mind?? Isn’t it everything?? I mean, we think, say, feel, do whatever our minds are. To do anything in this life, first we must create a thought; and in time that thought becomes many thoughts, and so this mental stream becomes our habitual mind. The content of our minds. So, when you feel worship to God is because your mind is full of beliefs and religious things, even if you don’t assist to a religion. And when you become angry and paranoid is because your mind is full of thoughts which you despise. And when you feel arrogant and superior to others is because your mind is full of images of yourself that you have created egoistically. The same with progress in your life. Your mind dictates your progress or lack of it.

The only obstacle is self-imposed. The only obstacles are your beliefs, your attachment to your arrogance and to the ways things should be, the self-pity and jealousy you carry. You are the content of your mind, not more than this. You are not what you feel or you say you are. So, what is your mind’s content..?? Is it beliefs, culture and traditions, self-pity, doubt, arrogance, and endless nonsense about the supernatural?? Become aware of it, because whatever happens in your life, and whatever you experience, is what you attract due to your mind’s content. You become your mind’s content. This is for any of us, because any of us have the responsibility to remain aware of our minds at all times.

And now I want to present you with the latest video promo I made about the main character of this YA fantasy/mystery story I am writing. The BENJAMIN JONES series.

“BENJAMIN JONES. The Call of The Shaman,” #1 in the series, is already out and in Amazon. You can visit my website for more info: https://asarodriguez.com

So this is a little about Ben. As the main character of epic adventures, I thought he deserved a little introduction, since his story will make for several books to come.

And I have just gotten word that “BENJAMIN JONES. The Call of The Shaman,” is approved by Audible in its audiobook form, to be on sale in Audible, Amazon and iTunes in a few days. So maybe my narration of Ben’s story can reach the ears of people too.

His story commences here:

US: https://amazon.com/dp/B08MBFXSR9

UK: https://amazon.co.uk/dp/B08MBFXSR9

And this is the video titled: “WHO IS BENJAMIN JONES..??”…
