We have been taught

Posted in Thought for the Week.

We have been taught that everything we do in life is about achievement, about reaching goals and once achieved; start a new one.  For, if we are not striving, we are going backward.  This cycle never allows us to enjoy our life for we are constantly incomplete. However, if we are willing to feel and unwind this need to constantly strive, we set ourselves free from this limiting view, all possibilities are now ours.   Enjoy your new freedom.  ~Alain & Jody Herriott

We are taught from an early age to achieve

Posted in Thought for the Week.

We are taught from an early age to achieve, to push, to beat others.  This is probably the #1 thing in our way in order to know ourselves.  All the striving takes us out of the moment and places us firmly in the mind, separated from our essential self. People believe that striving is necessary in order to achieve our goals.  This simply isn’t true. Instead we find harmony is born, which makes everything possible.  It is easy enough to create balance in our lives; all we need to do is be willing to feel the sensations within us. T  his will change our focus from pushing to opening and the rest simply unfolds.  ~Alain & Jody Herriott
