Get Rid of Frustration Once and for All?
I just pulled the energetic attachments from two guys, and I had an insight while I was doing the work.
You see, to do any work on you, I have to merge my body with yours, and only feel your emotions and feelings, none of mine.
Both guys are frustrated. Why? This is their attitude: given how smart they are, their results should be over the top. but they aren’t.
When you think of your dominant belief, you probably think that your dominant belief is something bad about you, something lacking about you. But…
The most damaging, the most frustrating dominant belief is to believe that you are smart.
I graduated from a high school where you needed to have a 3.8 grade average to even stay in the school. And if you came from another school and there you had a 4.0 grade average, you would only get a passing grade in this school.
And this is exactly what happened to me. After the first year I dropped to the bottom of my new class and was asked to leave. By some shenanigans I was allowed to stay.
- I realized that I wasn’t as smart as I thought I was.
- I also realized that thinking I was smart gave me the habit to get by by the seat of my pants. with just smarts alone.
So I buckled up and spent 4-5-6 hours a day studying. My results got me to the most competitive school (architecture school where there was an over-application, 20 applicants for each spot).
I got lucky: I learned that smarts is not sufficient. but my “nature” was still fighting to prove that I was smart.
Many of you are like me, except one thing. Most of you have never learned to put in the work.
There is another cost of thinking yourself smart: you won’t look before you leap, you look in your mind.
Your mind has two disadvantages:
- it is absolutely and completely unaware of what’s going on
- it stores a lot of information, most of it is inaccurate
You can see that going to the mind for answers, the thing you do when you think you are smart, is going to give you frustrating results.
Reality is an ever changing, dynamic chaos. And unless you look at in reality, suspending the mind, your response will be inaccurate. You may scrape by, but you’ll never be a winner.
So, what is there to do if you fancy yourself smart, but your results are sub par?
You need to have your dominant belief pulled. and start acting consistent with it gone. you are just a person who will make decisions from what you see and not from your “smarts”.
Is it hard? It is very hard, I promise. I still stop to look only some of the time, not always.
You see, life isn’t like school where you are measured, publicly, regularly, and ruthlessly, daily. In life you can coast, and only you know that your results are not there. Others won’t know.
But the life, living like this, coasting, drifting, is not joyful. It is not rewarding. It requires a lot of pretense to be thought of well.
And your heart hurts, your liver is toxic, and your soul is giving you grief. No matter what is your soul correction, the soul wants you to interact with reality on the basis of looking.
Bummer, eh?
If you are one of the unfurtunates with this debilitating belief, I can pull your attachment-like belief… and then you do the work of living without that belief. It will be hard, but you can do it.
