What is the flow and why is it so important in our lives? I believe we all have a choice – a deep and personal choice that we all need to make every morning as soon as we come back to waking consciousness. And that is how do I want to live my life today?
Unfortunately for most of us, our first thoughts upon waking are more about what than how or why. What do I need to do today? What did I do wrong yesterday? We have become overly focused on doing at the expense of being.
But how I live my life is infinitely more important and interesting. For it is not what you do that brings you success and happiness but rather how you do it. Who you are. For it is ultimately your inner state of consciousness that determines your reality, not simply what you do. Two people can do exactly the same set of actions with completely different outcomes precisely because their mindsets are different.
So, when you first arise, determine what feelings, what states of inner psychic being you are going to experience regardless of what actually happens today. I am going to Be: joyous, delighted, amazed, polite, kind, humorous, jovial, contented, enthusiastic… You create your own list.
Instead of the proverbial To Do List, compose an extraordinary To Be List. For as you practise being these qualities, they will become more a part of your focus and thus your life. You will experience these states of being more and more. They will become a habit and your default setting.
To live in the zone of flow is to become the master of your energy field. You determine who you want to be and become rather than being dictated to by what happens to you in your daily life. You move from reaction to creation just by moving the letter ‘c’. Move your consciousness.
Flow is our natural birthright. It is our own deep inner uniqueness and authenticity. It is who we are at our core. If we give full and faithful expression to this person, the wave will be there. It will pick you up and carry you along on its path, on its power.
You will merely ride the wave happily, merrily and effortlessly. You build a successful partnership with your life. You become congruent and authentic. You become magnetic and charismatic. You naturally attract good fortune and blessing into your life.
The flow is your path. It is the law of your being. It is your innermost truth of who you are as a spiritual being. Once you know this truth, no one can take it away from you and you no longer compare yourself with others or take your cues from the outer world.
You focus on your truth and the false narrative of this contrived and fictitious world falls away. You view it and enjoy it as the soap opera it is. You move from victimhood to victory. You become secure within yourself. Unshakable and unshackled! This is true personal freedom. The liberty to live your life your way, free from oppression, free from constraint, free from extraneous influence.
Free to be – you! Practise being you! Its fun. Practise TaoTuning. Enjoy the golden glow.
