Every moment, whatever we do or not, we are responding to a call within to love ourselves more or differently. Asking ourselves questions aloud and writing them down is a way to step back and gain perspective. Allowing ourselves to respond intuitively to our own questions is an eye-opening exercise. Jot down these five questions and respond ...
1. Why are we really drawn to move to or live in a specific area?
This invites us to reflect on our underlying motivation or changing priorities: (i.e., imposed career move, lifestyle choice, family benefits, reputation, climate, perceived energy or opportunities, logical or strategic stepping stone, intuitive decision. Does it reflect balance on physical, emotional, spiritual and other levels?)
2. What are we meant to do to generate income at this stage of our lives?
We may really enjoy certain endeavours, find these fun and rewarding. And yet, if how we love to spend our time does not yet pay the bills, we may feel an underlying guilt or anger arising. We are taught to follow our passions and money comes naturally. And yet, until we trust fully, and impatience subsides, the timing of that flow may require us to do things we do not like as much to pay for those we do.
3. Why have we chosen a particular/ current partner?
Our partners enter our lives as conscious and/or unconscious choices. This may be based on impulsive physical attraction, lust, someone set it up or arranged the marriage, or it could also be deeper, like a Soul agreement or energetic entanglement. Whatever the case, when ready and open, we are invited to unravel the reasons and lessons ourselves.
4. Which is the best course of action ?
If we feel caught 'between a rock and a hard place', or feel like we sit on the fence, about something, then it is helpful to remove ourselves from the personal and see the bigger picture. It pays to ask ourselves who's idea of 'best course' we are referring to here. Everyone is not at the same point of understanding or awareness of who they are. Everyone is not even wanting the same thing. Everyone does not give themselves the same message. Depending on our priorities and how well we know ourselves, different desires emerge. Choose from the head or the heart...
5. What opportunities should we pursue or avoid?
This depends on our soul level of development, whether we live based on the personal or whether we resonate more with universal laws. Some souls reach a stage where relaxing and trusting feels completely natural. To reach this stage of fearlessness implies we only focus on what evokes joy. Pushing ourselves to overcome obstacles may have been important in the past. In this moment, it feels right to trust what presents rather than seeking out specific opportunities. If something is meant to happen, it will. To release any feelings of constriction, flow with any opportunities that come our way. This will be obvious, when we are open, relaxed rested and trusting. As we trust we are in an expanded state, we know what feels right and thus, where to go.
