From Default To Design

When you take on having fun full-time, there comes a point when you realize life is a game, a process that looks like going from creating your world from default programming to definite design. Now that might not sound like much, but let me share with you some insight that has truly changed my everyday living experience.

I was talking with my good friend Chris Harris, who happens to be a genius at conscious living and is too, in this discovery process of claiming full responsibility for life. A newer friend in my world, we often discuss our passions for living and dreams of true love. But on this day, we discussed the power of owning what you complain about (or what we're calling, your unconscious commitments.)

This looks like whatever your current results in life are there because, on some level, usually unconscious, you're requiring them, you're committed to them. And until you own them in a warm embrace of love and curiosity, you'll keep living your biggest fears.

Take for example you find yourself complaining about how little money you're making or you have to work at a job you don't like, just to make ends meet. Well, life becomes a blast when you examine your unconscious commitments (or complaints) as what you're currently committed to. And by taking full ownership for your life, the way it is today, you'll free up your energy to put towards what you really want, instead.

Yes, it's easy to defend and say, "no, I really do want money to be easy," or "I really want a relationship with the person of my dreams," but unless you're actually having those experiences, on some level you're not holding space for your dreams to come true. And it's even easier (because of our upbringing) to point your finger outside and say, "look at the economy," or "they just don't want to be with me."

But ultimately, those of us that have grown weary of finger pointing are starting to wake up and realize, we're the common dominator in every situation we experience. That wherever you go, there you are. At some point, you realize there is no where to go and nothing to do (unless of course you feel inspired), but everything you are seeking in life, is right here in this moment.

Until you embrace the fears and limiting beliefs that are taking up the space for you to actually enjoy the money and love you, you'll continue to run around, waiting for your "luck" to kick in. Of course, you could use this information as another reason to beat yourself up and prove you, "haven't figured it out yet," but a simple self-hug of warm tenderness is all thats required for you to have the internal shift, for life to, once again, match you. To mirror back to you, where you're currently holding yourself as an equal to all that you want.

Today, be gentle with yourself, what are your results? Based on that information, what are you current unconscious commitments? Based on that, what limiting beliefs or fear that may want your love and tenderness? Thank the parts of you that are scared, they're just waiting for you to acknowledge them. Besides, it's not like there's shortage of money or love on the planet, just a story that needs to be updated.

Begin with loving yourself for all that you're currently experiencing.
