Have you ever noticed that the thing that gets you moving into action is your pain and suffering? Or maybe one of the great motivators in your life is outrage and taking offense. Does anger become your motivator? All these things used to be my motivation. Fear was a big motivator for me. AND it was often the thing that I got stuck in and couldn’t move. Crazy!

When we’re motivated by upset, chances are we’re not going to take right action. Right? I mean let’s face it, if you’ve into the place where you’re thinking:

“I’ve had it! I’m not going to take this anymore! This is outrageous! This is unfair! This is ridiculous! I’m offended!”

What kind of action are you going to take from that emotional turmoil? Chances are you’ll say and do things that aren’t actually helpful to you. Like attracts like, so what will you attract if you’re in that mindset?

What I’ve learned is that the small selfish self loves to judge and take offense and to think that it knows what is good and bad, but it does not know.

Do you put your faith in your opinions about your relationships and the people in your life? How can you ever feel secure when you change your mind frequently? Yikes!

When I am in faith that ALL things work together for my good, then when these thoughts arise, as they often do, I can say “I’m not interested in shining my light into THAT thought. I’m choosing a loving thought right now!” This simple process helps me to purify my mind and then to make choices from my right mind, the mind that is focused in unity, Love and compassion. Phew!

This is a time of purification. My classes, Finding Freedom & Masterful Living Course and everything I offer is to point to the value of choosing purification instead of opinions and judgments. We absolutely can actively purify our minds of all the the beliefs that cause suffering. W

We can shift from being motivated by upset to being inspired to take loving action in the world! Simple shifts in mental habits make a huge difference in our lives.

Faith is built one choice at a time and then BAM! You have a deep faith! It’s worth it!

Without faith, pain is the motivator and we’ve all had enough of that! Old paradigm is falling away NOW!
