An awareness that’s activated my experience of Peace and Freedom is to move out of thinking that I’ve wasted any time.
No wasted time. No mistakes.
It’s so tempting to align with the ego and judge the use of our time and energy in the past. I find it’s best not to look back except to celebrate how far we’ve come! The other choice is to compare and despair. That’s not helpful.
I’ve made millions of mistakes in my life. I make mistakes every day. I used to judge my mistakes, and now I realize that they are one way I learn.
I am a learner. I LIKE learning. I used to HATE making mistakes. I used to BERATE myself for making mistakes until I began a personal practice of nonviolence and then my commitment to living a nonviolent life led me to realize that berating myself for ANYTHING was subjecting myself to punishing mental and emotional violence. That stopped me cold!
I prefer to harvest the wisdom from my mistakes and I don’t mind making them, most of the time.
Our inherent wisdom is something we can access. If we judge our errors (or someone else’s), it takes longer for the pain of it it to break down and become compost. Judgment makes it harder for the wisdom seeds to grow.
Are there any errors that you’ve made that you’re still judging?
Release the judgment so you can harvest the wisdom!
Your Higher Holy Spirit Self knows the way. Don’t leave it to the ego to decide these things – be yourself, your REAL Self and decide how you’d like to go forward.
This is what spiritual practice looks like sometimes. Taking out the trash in the form of self-judgment. Changing the channel. Focusing on BEING loving. Extending Love.
I am grateful that we can receive tremendous, life-transforming benefit from applying 1 or 2 simple spiritual tools each day.
Seriously. It’s crazy how much easier and more fulfilling life is with a spiritual practice that works. Even just a few minutes of clear intentional heart-centered choices each day will literally change your life. It sure has changed mine.

Latest ACIM PODCAST EPISODE: my topic is Cultivating Trust & Faith: Embracing Divine Guidance & Letting Go of Fear. Life offers both low and high vibrational choices; we’ll only be able to recognize the ones that are a vibrational match for us in the moment. In this episode, I share how to bring higher and better choices into our awareness so that we can actively choose a more loving and joyful life. When we have a strong practice of trust, it builds faith and releases worry and anxiety.
