The Wisdom…
When you’ve moved beyond your hidden subconscious blocks, you evolve beyond surviving and into thriving. Like a pilot flame softly glowing deep within you, presence ignites your spark, illuminating your inherent desire to move past your barriers (inner and outer) and upward into the you that flourishes beyond your brain, body, and worldly achievements.
The Science…
Presence is more than a buzzword; it's the key to unlocking your true self. In a world that constantly pulls us outward, it’s vital to turn inward and find our center.
Conventional views suggest that being present helps us achieve happiness and tackle challenges, but these often miss the deeper truth. True presence isn't about chasing external success; it's about discovering the profound potential within.
“Embrace what lies within,” said Ralph Waldo Emerson, reminding us that our inner world holds extraordinary power. Consciousness allows us to observe, reflect, and profoundly influence our state of mind and being. It’s the flame that ignites transformation, guiding us from mere existence to a life of fulfillment and joy.
The Strategy…
The upward pull is not merely about achieving success or greater accomplishments; it is about the inherent desire to transcend the small self and enter an evolving awareness of an invisible connection to all that exists, alongside the limitless potential for the expansion of the soul.
Author and thought leader Andrew Cohen emphasizes the importance of "disembedding ourselves from a deep preconscious orientation toward stasis that has been created through thousands of years of history." Cohen further elaborates, "In our emerging recognition of the evolutionary context that has given rise to our presence here on Earth, we become more at home in perpetual movement than in comfort and stasis."
Practice presence by observing your thoughts, feelings, and actions with as much clarity and detail as possible. The more often you practice self-observation, the quicker presence will become your dominant state of being.
Brilliant Kimble! I love change, always have. You're helping me realize that 'perpetual movement' is actually how we are hard-wired. The desire for stasis is conditioned behavior. Wow. Thank you!.
