One of the ways I know I’m more peaceful than I’ve ever been is this: I am not interested in retaliating.

The kinds of thoughts like “Well, I hope they get theirs” – no. I desire everybody to have realizations of truth. No punishment. Only loving correction.

This is such a shift from how I used to live.

Here’s what helped me see it correctly: Like attracts like. When I was in attack mode, I attracted attack. Now, even when people do attack me, I see that there’s nothing about it that’s personal. They’re just doing what they do.

I’m here to help, not to retaliate.

I had an experience a few years ago where people were calling me a liar. They were just making stuff up based on their projections and perceptions. And it was hurtful. Even though I could look at it from a high spiritual perspective, it was triggering.

And I worked with it. Of course I did. I do exactly what I teach. I don’t do one thing and say another. That’s not how I live.

But this thing hooked me. I was watching it carefully. And I reached a point – which is often how it happens for me – where I just put my foot down and said, “I’ve had enough. I cannot hold on to this belief one more second. I refuse to carry this basket of BS one more minute. I’m done with it.”

This is not happening TO me. There’s something in me generating this experience, triggering me so that I demand of myself a healing.

And when I did my spiritual practices – it unhooked. I was free

The people who were calling me a liar were soon willing to sit down and look at the facts. And they went, “Oh! I see now. You weren’t lying at all. I didn’t know you had this evidence.”

It wasn’t until I was no longer interested in being crucified as a victim that the whole thing resolved.

Everything is intended for good – not from them, but from my consciousness.

This is what we practice in my Masterful Living Program – releasing the desire to retaliate, to punish, to be vindicated. And finding the Peace that’s waiting when we do.

We can do this.
