Good Day Awakened Ones!
Often times we think we know ourselves so well yet it is those unconscious behaviors that trip us up. How can you choose if you are unaware of your unconscious drivers and triggers? How can you transform what you are unaware of?
Well we give ourselves clues all the time. Our author suggests that we follow the clues to find our attitudes. So, "Watch your behavior, especially how you routinely respond to situations"; "Listen in on your self-talk... Discover what you routinely tell yourself"; "Monitor your body...our bodies speak to us constantly"; "Monitor you emotions....know what jump starts your emotions"; "Observe what gets your time and attention".
Just checking out what is taking place within you unconsciously or automatically will reveal a great deal. Try to do so without judgement or criticism or negative self-talk....oh and leave out the guilt also. You want to be able to see what you normally don't see in yourself.
Well, make it a valuable day!
Rev. Sylvia
The clues revealed by asking the right questions and answering them honestly - pointed out quite a few areas with which I am satisfied, and some areas which require attitude adjustments. There’s work to be done!
ReplyDeleteI must heal my need to do things perfectly and the self-judgment which accompanies it when I fall short of the mark. This need has hampered and derailed my progress countless times. Rev. Sylvia offered an excellent balm a few Sundays ago, she said “love yourself to wholeness.” I have made thatis statement one of my daily affirmations.
