Reading in another thread I saw Sclorch use the expression, "where there is will there is a way" and became full of inspiration to share on the power considerations and applicable tools of this topic.
This has got to be the most valuable thing my mom ever taught me. She said it all of the time and without fail, used that diddy to work her way out of any jam or into something when all hope appeared to be lost to me.
There is no special magic to it, where one can command the seas to part, nothing like that at all.
It's more about infinite probabilities and possibilities all being laid out ahead of time and being open to the buffet.
The way has always been there it's we who blind our own selves to it, via fear, doubt, laziness, lack of confidence, conditioned beliefs in what "the" limitations of self and life are. These mental states are all illusions and self delusions. If you can make them disappear, the way opens itself to you.
How to make them disappear? Get over your "small self" and into your bigger self. It's about generating the spirit of "I can do".
People look at stubbornness only in a negative light, as in it being a quality where you refuse to give way. You can also be stubborn about refusing not to give in to self defeat.
I look back on situations in my adult life, where the groups decided, all hope was lost and to accept defeat. In times where I would remember moms advise, I would brighten and come forth to say, no no no there must be a way and we will find it, now what is the goal again? and in that light of spirit, it would appear. Ideas would come not thought of before and the day was saved.
My husband and I tweaked our own version of it. We call it, the no other option but to succeed. It's a very stubborn thing and we use the power of stubbornness to make it work. When we get an idea to accomplish something, we move into the no other option mode. We simply refuse to allow ourselves to accept any idea other then success with the goal, there is no other option for us but success and infinite options to it.
In this, you refuse to entertain fear doubt, lazyness, confidence lack and self defeat from the get go. In this you stay brightened and paths become illumined for you.
Where some may faulter in this is believing there is only one way to skin a cat. Having the idea that there are infinite ways to skin a cat is the key for maintaining flexibility required to see any path that will get you there. If in your mind, you think there is only ONE way, you will not be able to recognize the others as you are mentally shut off to recognizing their existence.
Here is another area where people faulter. Say they decide they want a house in the hills. It is a dream wished to be made manifest. The first home in the hills they see they want to buy and make there offer. Wifey says, "Oh Honey, this is to good to be true". Hubby says, "Yes it is, I can't believe we are finally going to live in our dream home in the hills" and they smile and hug while the cloud of self doom drops in.
to good to be true, then it must not be
can't believe it, then it must not be and it won't.
Realtor calls and says the deal fell through, the owner changed his mind about selling.
They fall into despair and panic and start entertaining ideas of it not being meant to be and they just don't deserve it. They had become attached to THAT house and had to have that house and made it the only way and maeans to realise the dream of living in the hills, no other house would do (negative stuborness that does not serve the goal). If they can't have that then, they must be in wrong for wanting and they will punish themselves for being wrong. Clouded in all of the mucky thoughts they give up and find a home in the valley and accept their fate.
They forgot that the original dream was to have a home in the hills before they ever saw that house. That house was not the only way to realize the dream. 3 others are for sale, one even better then the first they saw, but they will never know that now.
The point of this is to not get so caught up in the means for how you achieve the goal or the means themselves become limitations to overcome not to mention how self defeating thoughts begin to darken the ways and close you off like road blocks and attachment to a tangible object got in the way.
The original goal was much broader and grander, a way of life in the hills, it was never about a specific house , but it became that and narrowed the scope into a dead end.
There is never only one way or one resultant product that can bring you the experiential essense of change you are after. Always keep that in mind from the get go.
Whatever the goal is, there is a general essense behind it and that is the prize, how it comes and how it is supported is not the issue of focus. They are just paths and means to the essense you wish to experience and they are infinite.
I wrote this as an inspirational piece with applications to be considered and used. There is no science or magic here, just the power of the human will and spirit to be worked with. Where there is a will and the spirit to see it through, there is always a way, many ways in or out.
When in a jam also consider this one because it applies every time. We are our own worst enemies. There is No force out to get you, to keep you down, and repressed, other then the enemy in yourself. There is never really anything you are fighting and having to overcome "out there" it is all what is going on in your own head and heart, look for the enemy there and overcome him within.
It's easy to do, your spirit is real and more powerful then you will ever realize and he, the enemy is an illusion, a phantom, powered into existence by your own beliefs of self doubt and unworthiness and the power you give to those beliefs. You make him real with your own power. You have the free will to take that power away from him to. That's all it takes to over come him, cut him off from being powered up by not energizing beliefs of self doubt and lack of self worth.
When you realize in a jam that the enemy is yourself, you can almost laugh and in that ease you can begin to dismantle him as you realize, you have all the power and control via your beleifs and in that, there is nothing to fear. When you dissolve him, the roads open up and you are free and clear to move into the desired essense of new life experience.
To realize, that what you fear out there to be more powerful then your own self, is actually your own power is pretty funny. Who is in control of you? You of course. So what is there to fear if you are in directive command over your life? Directive commands are nothing more the beliefs and beliefs are easily changeable. If ones not working for you, change it to one that will.
Look to an area where you wish to experience more success and ask, what beliefs do those experiencing success in this area have that I do not? How are mine different? Change them.
Learn to use beliefs as creative tools to craft results. You have been doing it all your life and just haven't made the connection between what tool creates what forms. Beliefs are like molds that give shape to reality. To change the shape of your reality you have to change your beliefs.
