Engaging The Myth Within

What can you do with a bit of faith?

In this passage, we are reminded of the true nature of faith. Belief in the unknown. This forms the foundation of any first step we undertake to realize the brevity of our dreams. However, as with any human condition, faith can sometimes waiver, as fear can creep in to create disbelief in our power to realize a dream’s potential. What can we do?

Psychologically, the first step would be to identify the state. E-Motion, Energy in Motion, dictates that we must first identify the energy present. Is it fear, anger, or sadness. If the energy is standing in your way, it is most likely moving from a harmful wavelength. If your emotional state was positive, your psychological state would support your direction. When the primary emotion is identified, we must then find counteractive exercises to work within the emotional state to create its natural outcome.

Fear needs to be exercised through flight. Running away from a problem or running towards a solution. It’s the same behavior, different outcome. However, fear may sometimes manifest into anger, causing the fight response. Fighting against a problem or for the solution of the problem? Even Mother Teresa knew not to support an anti-war rally. If you want peace, support a peace rally peacefully. Fighting only perpetuates itself but can easily be manifested from an ideal of support versus the fight. Feeling sadness? Guilt may be present. What changes need to be made to see the light on the other side.

A little bit of faith is needed to work on any area of life. Even belief the size of a mustard seed can create the necessary volition to take that first step, as the journey of 1,000 miles will naturally emerge from its course. Got faith?

As always, blessings, my friends. May your journey bring joyful feelings as you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams.
