My Frame of Mind Needs A Change of Mind

TODAY I AM TEACHING WHAT I AM STILL LEARNING.

Awareness of my frame of mind and how it drives my doing.

Yesterday afternoon my frame of mind was getting the best of me, so I used The Pause 4 Decisions Practice to get into my right mind. As I was willing to experience a shift, I saw how in taking orders from my cubicle mind to, “Get it done” I had lost my Peace. My body was tense, I was probably holding my breath, my cubicle mindset was shoving me around with its boxed beliefs about what I must do, and the result was feeling like I just stepped out of the ring. As I opened to receiving Help, I became aware of a Peaceful Presence within; I simply needed to shift my focus away from warped thinking to this Peace. Peace is now my starting point for all doing. I will forget throughout the day, need to re-Pause, connect with Peace, and begin again. Pause is a Practice!

I am inviting you to practice Peace as well.
Together we can perform our daily operations with Peace.
I have already begun today and am glad I did. It may not be easy.
Pause says:

“Relax into it. Give thanks that you are not required to
operate in this world by your own strength.
It is not that you do not have strength, for you do,
thus to rely on something you call “strength” that you have
mustered up all by your lonesome, is not your real strength.
Strong are those who allow themselves to receive the help of Inner Wisdom.”

Inspired doing is to act with enthusiasm and fortitude that comes from LOVE; all other doing is self-fabrication. It’s true. Even doing the dishes in your own strength is to believe that the self you made up is more powerful and valuable than the Self you have been given.
