WHY DO WE RESIST WHAT IS BEST FOR US?

QUESTION OF THE DAY

As I grow closer and closer to my Highest self, I’ve realized things about myself that I hadn’t recognized until now. Things that were blocking my blessings, knowingly and unknowingly. Things that may be blocking yours too, knowingly and unknowingly.

Your mind is the seat of your soul and your heart the seat for your essence. Many beings, including myself, have often blocked or resisted change when it comes to matters of the heart and mind. Ego also lives in that mind along with Fear, Shame and Unforgiveness. These comrades often go head to head with Healing, Unconditional Love, Compassion and Forgiveness. Your heart and mind soon become a battlefield that you’re constantly trying to tame.

Well, that’s what I used to do.

I was toying with both sides for a while. I would be forgiving, loved unconditionally, compassionate and all about healing. I thought I was doing the very best and yet, some things weren’t clicking. My abundance was flowing but it wasn’t flowing in the manner I knew that it could. My inner self was balanced but I wasn’t in total peace in the manner I knew that it could. I was happy but not as happy as I knew that I could. So what was the hold up?

I was only thinking in the scope of where I am now and not where I wanted to be.

I was believing in a limited scope when there is no limit in an infinite universe.

I was making plans MY way and if it didn’t look the way I wanted it to look, I resisted it.

If it wasn’t what I’ve been visualizing, I rejected it.

Sometimes we BELIEVE that we know it all. That we see all that there is to come and quite frankly, we don’t. If we did, life wouldn’t be as thrilling as it is every day. Our stories would be dull and most of us, would try to change things before they happened just to end up having that same thing happen because it was destined to happen.

Life is going to happen. Trials and tribulations are going to happen. Love is going to happen. Being hurt is going to happen. Being happy is going to happen. All these things plus more are destined to happen and there’s nothing you can do to change that.

We can do 2 things with this information given.

One, resist it. Resist it like so many of us have been brain washed into doing. Or be that unicorn and embrace it. Go with the flow until you can learn to control the flow. To be the flow while still being you. That’s when total manifestation and connection occurs. That’s when understanding and your godlike essence shines through. That’s when your dreams come true. But it all starts when we stop resisting.

I believe that not everything you hear is truth and it’s very important to have strong discernment. Using your intuition as a tool will guide you to navigate through life effortlessly. Following that feeling that touches your soul will lead you into knowledge you couldn’t fathom to ever obtain. Being connected and constantly directed by your Highest self until you become that, is the goal I believe we all should obtain.

Not one of us the same. Similar but never the same. We have been taught to be what we’re told to be instead of sailing across our hearts sea and searching for the reason we came here. We are taught to take time away from Self so that we never fulfill our purpose. I don’t know about you but I was tired of being a sheep. I was tired of not thinking as I did before as a child. I wanted my true essence back as I did when I was a child and I connected with that part of me. I resisted at first. It’s true. However, I embraced it and dived in head first. It was the best decision I made that day. I began to listen and state affirmations daily. Some days I wouldn’t do it. It’s true. However, I embraced this new habit and it’s worked wonders for me. There’s are so many new habits that my heart is yearning for me to acquire. In order to do that, I would have to let go of the habits that no longer serve me. Habits that keep me in the same place in life. Different faces and locations yet the same place.

Are you tired of being in the same place?

If you are, you must know that you can’t get different results doing the same things.

You must do new things to get new results. New blessings. New abundance. New place. New level.

Whatever’s been pulling at your heart and mind, go deeper. Study that feeling. Understand it. Research. Let go of everything you thought you knew for the moment and open your heart and mind to something new. Research. Ask/Pray for guidance and protection. Keep what your soul tells you to keep, keep researching what your soul keeps telling you to research and throw away the rest.

It’s that easy.

When you find your new groove, create a plan that works for you. Remove those old patterns one by one and embrace the change that’s occurring. Be GRATEFUL. Thankful for your past that shaped you for who you are right now and soon to become. It’s a blessing within every lesson if you’re open and aware. Slowly but surely, you’ll become who you’ve always said. It’ll take work.

So why do we resist what’s best for us?

I believe I resisted because I truly did not believe in anything other than what I’ve always conceived in my mind. I became comfortable being average. Then, when things that wanted to shift my reality came into place, I resisted instead of embracing it. I would pray for these things but they came in different forms so I resisted it. I learned so many life lessons from thinking in this manner. I finally received all that I needed once I STOPPED resisting the changes I needed in order to be who I said I wanted to become.

We must embrace the changes that are meant for us to soar, no matter what.

What do you think?

Let me know why you resist the changes that will better your life. What have you learned from resistance? What have you gained from embracing?

Until next time,

Hotep.
