Hello again Friends!
Today's episode of Profound Self Help was fun! My "flow buddy", Paul, and I had a great time sharing insights into a source of anxiety that has affected me all of my life. It's the anxiety or frustration of not having the opportunity to say or do something that is critical to me.
Everybody feels it. For example, lets say you've had an incident in a relationship that is unsettled, unreconciled. There's a need to get it off your chest. Something within is pushing harder and harder until finally a move is made to get resolution.
I experience that too, but where I get really anxious is when I have something to write. To whom? Nobody in particular. It's simply a craving to publish a message that is stuck inside me. Once written, a sense of relief and calm takes over, but over time that anxiety is back! It's fun but when I can't find the time to write, I get frustrated.
The interesting thing is that I usually know the topic but only a fraction of the content. The rest of the content appears as I write or speak with someone like Paul about it. It often feels like the anxiety that I'm feeling is a signal that a download is waiting.
I won't label or guess at the source. I'm not going to pretend like I know. What I do know is that I ALWAYS love the content. Always. I love being surprised by what I write or say! Where that comes from is not a problem, but a mystery. Mysteries don't need to be known and better to wonder about them rather than label them as though one truly has solved the mystery! Let it be what it is and be curious.
That curiosity will lead to more insights because "curiosity" is a state of questioning, of asking questions. On the flip side, to assume that I know the source and label it means that I am not questioning, therefore not creating a trigger for answers to come.
"When the student is ready, the master appears." The student is ready when the student becomes curious and asks questions. Question everything and be amazed at how much and how fast you learn.
And when asking, again, don't label anything. Just ask. Just wonder.
Live a meditative life where quiet solitude is frequent so you can absorb the answers. Turn off the TV, turn off the games, turn off the music and close your eyes.
While the topic today was that frustrating feeling of not being able to express ones most inner self, our conversation went off into seemingly many unrelated directions, but then a connection to the topic was realized. That's the beauty of getting into a flow state....you just don't know what's coming next BUT it's always good!
Enjoy!
Andrew
