Episode description
Every day is a chance to start over. Yesterday I pushed myself extremely hard to get through the end of a project and spent all night looking at the screen. That blue light in high intensity had me Wideawake at night to the point where I couldn’t pass out. Then when I finally did, I woke up conflicted with thoughts of comparison in the middle of the night. Thinking about other people who seemingly have more than me.
And it took a long time of quieting these thoughts until I could settle the panic in my heart.
Was it a trick of the blue light from the screen? Or was that fear lurking in the shadows of my heart waiting for me to be half asleep until I found a boldness to try to possess my consciousness? Perhaps both.
But the trick that worked wonders for me that night, was to remove myself from the perspective that there was a competition in the first place and instead to look at it all as if there were a common mission.
You see, in this mission my power my individual power was essential to turning the tides and completing the mission. This mental shift will serve you whenever you get in a funk of comparison or envy.
Stop looking at the world as a competition where there is a winner and a loser and a timeline for completion. These thoughts will constrict the flow of your potential, like a hairball in a pipe that blocks the flow, thinking about who’s better or how come you’re so far behind will prevent you from playing your part in the greater battle.
Because there is A war happening, you are needed for this battle. You are being called forward to unblock your light and let it shine in full glory on the battlefield.
In the most important part of this, is that your life is just as brilliant as your friend who you were comparing yourself to earlier.
Stop the envy and instead think about how you can help.
Your friend who is out there on the battlefield needs you. They have plowed ahead and are surrounded, just waiting for you to stop with the hesitation and realize that you have the same power.
Get in there and release your light on the battlefield.
