01/22/10  - Don’t Give Up  - Calaise 

     Help yourself get back up one more time.  That’s what you tell yourself when you are down.  What if you don’t feel like getting back up again?  That’s a tough one but only for your ego.  You have the will power to start again.  You just need to tap into it.  It can be done.  You are feeling the low times and perceiving it as hard to impossible to get any gumption up to go on.  Maybe it’s time to ask for help.

     “Help?” you say.  Yes, I’m referring to reaching outside yourself to find a way to lift yourself up.  Sometimes you take all the responsibility and weight on your shoulders thinking that you are the only one that need to solve this dilemma.  Well, it’s time to open up and receive from the Universe the help and assistance that is already yours, you just don’t know it yet.  “What help?” you ask.  Does it matter?  Let the Universe provide.  “yeah, yeah, yeah” you say.  “I tried that and look where it got me!”

     You think you know what is yet to come because you are using previous references to depict what will unfold.  What if this time it was different?  What if the very thing that is coming to your rescue cannot be defined or determined until the last minute, right before it’s delivered into your lap?  Could you handle a last minute miracle?  Stop deciding that you know what is yet to come in your life.  You can still plan, have goals, dreams and desires.  I’m talking about you sabotaging your next steps by second guessing what is needed to pull you out of this slump you are in.

     When you sit quietly and let the Universe guide and direct you then your life will be smoother.  You can “think” all you want but when you set that aside your intuitive responses are right there ready and willing to aid you.  Don’t forget this valuable tool that is always in place.  It’s like a tool you placed on the shelf in your garage and forgot about it because you didn’t think you would need it for a while.  The intuition is a tool that should be taken off the shelf daily.  It is available at a moments notice.  All you have to do is take that moment out and focus.  Let your mind relax and let in the wisdom that is primed and ready to go.

     You can tap into the thoughts of the ages; the wisdom of others that have gone before you.  You have much that is at your finger tips instantly.  Finding the time is the catch.  You are probably saying that you have so much to do.  Taking the time out to get in touch with your intuition will only bring you more time.  You will find hints and tips on how to do what you do currently even more efficiently and thus having much more time.  It’s not a difficult process either.  Just pausing for a moment, taking a breath, and then listening to what pops into your head is all that there is to it.  Really quite simple.

     The key is to start using this technique more often.  Whenever you feel stumped or frustrated, Stop, pause, breathe, and listen to what is next to say or do.  So if it’s that simple, why are you not using it more often?  You forget that it’s available.  You depend on and use tools right in front of you such as a computer, cell phone or the various other technologies available today.  Maybe start will writing a note and placing it where you can see it to remind you of the need to tune in more often.  Starting your day with asking “Universe what will you have me do today?”

     Don’t be surprised if the thought that pops in your head says “just sit there and do nothing.”  It doesn’t make sense to you at the time.  If you were to be able to look forward in time and see how that “sitting and doing nothing” helps you then you would heed the warning and do nothing.  It’s too simple and easy to just move forward and do what is right in front of you; to keep acting on thoughts that you have and keeping the momentum going.  That is great if you are on track.  What if it’s taking you down a path you don’t want to be on?  Or what if you climb the ladder and find out it’s leaning against the wrong wall and you need to climb down, move the ladder and try again? 

     Listening to that still small voice that is just a moment away from you could save you the effort and energy needed in keeping on track and focused on a goal that is for your highest and best.  Give it a chance to emerge and show you what is best for the moment.  You will have the results to learn from and confirm later on that you were indeed right; let that be the reflection to prove to you how valuable it is to be guided in such a way more often.   

     Trusting that still small voice might be the biggest challenge you have.  You have the thought that pops into your head but how do you know it’s right?  Stop questioning it and start acting upon some of these gut feelings.  If you really aren’t sure then sit quietly and keeping asking questions about these impressions until you feel clear throughout your body.  When you are sure there will be a peacefulness that floods through your body that will dispel all doubts.  You will know it emphatically.

     Sometimes you won’t have the time to sit that quietly and be sure of the information you just received.  Take a moment and reflect on a time that you acted upon a hunch and you were right.  Try to recall that moment and what it felt like.  This will be your reference point to use when deciding if it feels accurate or not.  There is a distinct sensation.  Every time you get confirmation of an intuitive thought you can track it back to when you initially had the thought and the surrounding feelings and sensations.  Make a mental note of this so you can check new intuitive impressions as they come in.

     Trusting may go against everything you’ve learned in life.  There are all these scientific formulas and procedures to take in order to confirm something.  With the intuition I will have to say all that will not be needed to verify your findings.  Your senses are some very powerful stuff.  Find time to sit with this.  I know for some of you it goes against your type A personalities of checking things and being sure.  There will come a day when you will have to set some of those characteristics aside and let your intuition have a front seat.  It might feel odd at first but as you use your intuition and see the accuracy, you will feel more confident and not need those old techniques and approaches.

     Picking yourself up each time you make a decision that doesn’t work out the way you want is a tough thing sometimes.  It isn’t always easy to set those thoughts of disappointment and failure off to the side.  It’s okay to feel the feelings of let down or discouragement and then go on.  Know that there is another way or another attempt to solving the problem or experiencing a situation.  Don’t let it get you down.  If it does get you down then try again even if you don’t have the energy or gumption to go forth.

     Get a friend to help.  Let yourself have some feedback from a friend.  I’m not saying they are right or you are right either.  It’s just nice having a fresh perspective of what is going on with you.  Maybe they will agree that you made the right approach and it should have worked out but didn’t.  It’s having that little extra umph to help out in starting again.  Just having a friend to commiserate with helps lessen the blow of what happened that didn’t seem to go right.  It’s like having a feeling of a black cloud over you and then your friend comes by and shed a little sunshine.  All of a sudden things don’t look so glum.

     Maybe writing down how you feel will help dissipate the not so good feelings.  Helping to dissolve the energy that isn’t working for you will help lighten your load.  You can just feel the charge going out of things as you jot down the scenario on paper.  Maybe you call a friend and chat about what you found out through your writings.  It doesn’t matter how you approach it.  Just keep approaching it.  When you sit discouraged and not wanting to move forward then things can look pretty dismal. 

     I would suggest an affirmation of “Just start again.”  It’s a short and simple phrase to nudge you into getting back up and starting again or starting anew.  It doesn’t have to be a huge revamping of things in order to get going again.  Just a little kick start and off you are running back in the flow of life.  Remember that you need to override any thoughts that might be slowing you down.  That’s why nudging yourself to start again will catapult you past the normal road blocks in your mind.

     If none of this techniques work then I would suggest just lying down and contemplating on what is going on.  Some of you might call this procrastination.  I call it mulling over what just happened.  It helps to sort out the thoughts and give them a chance to be heard.  The thoughts want to be acknowledged.  When you let them know you see them then they may go on.  It’s like a conveyor belt carrying the words right by you.  Just don’t hang onto the words on the conveyor belt or they will carry you with them and throw you off balance.  Keep it simple and just remember to breathe.  Go forth with a fresh start.  Yea!
