how to drop distractions
Hi love,
Here's another great question from the FXYWLF community...
By the way, If you have a burning question that you want clarity on, hit reply and let me know and I will keep this going as long as the questions keep coming.
>> How to stay focused and determined? How to let go of distractions? <<
A massive part of living an aligned and soulful life revolves around paying attention to it, participating, co-creating with it — and doing your best to not disassociate yourself, get distracted, derailed, and aimlessly drift through it.
Being distracted, disassociated and drifting is the whole anti-thesis of what we soulful beings are supposed to be soulfully doing.
I mean just read this excerpt below to have an idea of what I mean and what we're dealing with here...
{ From the book 'Outwitting the Devil' by Napoleon Hill. }
Soulfully living actually involves (learning how to) paying attention to the world around you, to all of the pieces of information that you need to know, to hear, and to become fully aware that this all is for your own benefit, good and well-being!
Life (what you experience directly first hand in your life) loves to give you more of you, it loves to rhyme and reflect you.
And it expresses back the energy you express to the world - whether you are doing it soulfully, aware, or not (I used to be an atheist and also totally in my ego) .
Life gives you anything that you are.
It doesn’t matter who you are.
It’s like all about HOW you live your life; and how you live it, is what shows up.
Do you experience things more along the side of the continuum where even though whatever happens to you happens, but:
A) you generally experience very good things and typically things you want to experience, are available for, and have in your life, tons of synchs, miracles, and general signs of progress (aka. manifesting on purpose);
or,
B) you generally experience the other side of the continuum where you get a jumbled chaotic mess of experiences that generally revolve around unpleasant patterns and cycles with micro amounts of good things and mini miracles - however not really much progress is happening.
First, I want you to know that progress isn’t meant to sound like a race, no one is racing you but you - progress is like just comparing where you are with where you want to be.
It’s like…
What would be one step up from where you are right now — without energetically having to strive and reach very hard? What would that be?
What's stopping you or standing in your way?
What if that didn't exist for you anymore?
When you close the gap on those, you realize generally this can be tapped into right now. When you see that what stands between you and your energetic desires is just knowing that you could have access to the right alignment and energies right now.
Energy creates worlds, energy is everything, energy is energy is energy.
So when you see very clearly that one thing you want, the only thing standing in your way is you and how available you are, for either determination or drifting in your pursuit of it (by pursuit I mean attraction and becoming a magnet for it).
What pains you most, doing the work over time or doing nothing over time?
What I know for sure is that being attentive, attuned and aligned to my personal flow and reality, I experience more play than work, more relaxation than stress, and pretty much always taking the right step and doing the right thing at the right moment.
I'm someone who get's to take naps whenever needed, wake up at 9am, work less than a few hours a day and get's to do pretty much whatever I want.
However the reason why is because I focus on what the day brings, and guide / follow the energy each time by being as present as possible.
I know whatever I’m doing is whatever I’m meant to be doing, and the way things go for me is that everything happens at the perfect moment so I never ever lose any sleep over it.
I never have to think hard about anything. I let things flow to me by staying grounded, open and completely ready to move however I have to (and feel guided and inspired to).
Ideas that must be done come well before they need to be executed, so each step feels like it's divinely calculated and orchestrated by a much larger vision that goes far far beyond what I can personally see - to honor and do the massive heart filled life mission that I am here to do.
And when the moment comes for me to do something, the energy to do it also comes with it as a force of inspiration but also from a place of joy, motivation, and intense enthusiasm to do it (e.g. it is fun to me).
From doing things in this way for so long, I see that moments flow together in this amazing sort of ethereal weave or tapestry and the patterns reflect either a mess or beauty.
When you do the right thing in the flow at whatever seems to have been the right moment (because you were inspired, could do it, and did) you literally begin to laugh in hindsight at how perfectly everything started coming together for you to do it, and even supporting you as you went along.
Everything you wanted.
That’s what you really want to achieve.
Versus the other way which IIRC involved stress, worry, anxiety, overworking myself, ignoring my self, ignoring my health, ignoring what the world was showing me (I didn’t know), delays, disappointment and aimlessly drifting wherever the rivers of life was taking me (ie. where I was leading myself subconsciously).
This is what most humans are living day in and day out.
I.e. Everything you most likely don't want.
What if you just decided you weren’t available for drifting and distractions anymore?
What if you cut out any sense of stress, offered it up and developed a sense of peace within because all things line up perfectly, how would your days flow?
What if you decided to focus on one thing at a time and follow your soul every step of the way?
What if you asked what your soul needed each morning?
What if you said no to everything you no longer are available for and started becoming available for something else?
What if you played with life and let life play with you back?
If drifting and being distracted didn't exist for you how would you be and flow?
