The difference between denial
and awareness is, denial is when
something is happening and we
pretend that it is not, while
awareness enable us to understand
that whatever is happening is
simply giving us an opportunity
to grow.
The truth is, every experience
is simply allowing us the gift of
recreating yourself a new. People
in denial feel as if they can't
do anything about what is
happening in their lives while
people with awareness understand
that they have the power to
change their circumstances and
generate whatever outcome they
desire. In other words, denial
yield to powerlessness while
awareness lead to powerfulness!
Another things about denial is
that people who engage in it live
under the assumption that things
are happening to them. That is
why they feel as if they are
victims. People who practice
awareness understand that in some
way they are co-creators of their
so called "reality." That is why
they can look at any condition(s)
or circumstance(s) with
confidence. Because deep in their
gut they know that they can
create a new reality that is more
in alignment with their own
desires.
So the questions is, how can
we create the reality we desire?
By noticing what's going on in
our minds. The way we think,
speak and act, contributes to the
creation of whatever reality we
are experiencing. In other words,
the result of all these three
aspects of ourselves working in
harmony or disharmony is, our
present reality!
We must remember that the way
we think and speak to ourselves,
does not define our truth. It
simply creates in the outside
world our own idea of what
reality means to us. Because the
truth of the matter is, who we
are is for the most part, far
much more than what we have
allowed ourselves to be. In
essence, who we are is divine
love, perfect health, unlimited
wealth, peace, happiness, joy,
wisdom, and we are in this world
to remember those truths.
Our physical world is nothing
but an empty canvas that allows
us to paint whatever reality we
choose. The only difference is,
in the canvas of a painter, what
shapes the images are colors and
lines. In the canvas of our
lives, what shapes our reality is
our beliefs. If a painter chooses
the color blue and with a stroke
of the brush place it on the
canvas a beautiful sky appears.
Just like the painter, if we
belief that something we want can
be attained, with a stroke of our
beliefs, "there it is," right
before our own eyes!
The next question is, how long
will it take before the belief
manifests into reality? This
question has been answered since
the beginning of time. Before the
painter creates the sky, she must
see it first! Then without
question, the painter dips the
brush into the blue ink, few
strokes across the canvas, and
guess what? Will she see that
blue sky for the first time? The
answer is no! She will see it for
the second time. Why? Because she
already saw it for the first time
in awareness, in her thoughts, in
her mind. All she needed to do
was to bring it out. And what
motivated her to take action and
bring it out with the confidence
that when she place the brush on
the canvas, the image will
appear? FAITH!
See, her belief motivated her
to take action. Her faith
reminded her that the result was
already in place. Having the
faith that the result in already
there is what feeds the belief
that motivates us to continue to
take action. "If you have faith
like the mustard seed, you can
moved mountains." "To the degree
that you have faith, to that
degree will be done unto you."
Here is a personal live
example. Back in 1997 or so,
after loosing everything I had, I
ended up homeless living out of
my car. There were times where my
budget was only $6.00 so I
figure, with that at least I can
get three sandwiches. I remember
times having to sleep in my car
on rest stops because I needed to
save on gas in order to get to
the next town. During those times
however, I never let go of the
idea that I will some day record
my music and continue moving in
the direction of my dreams.
Al thought the circumstances
may reflect a "reality" that
said, I could not afford, blah,
blah, blah... I would find myself
going to music studios asking
questions about recording gear
and learning about them because I
knew that I will be purchasing my
own recording gear and will
record my own CD. I never said to
them that I didn't have the money
to purchase the gear, nor I said
to them or myself that I could
not afford it. I would simply say
something like. "I am doing some
research so when I make my final
decision regarding which gear to
purchase, at least I am well
educated on the matter." So when
the world would ask:
Do you have more than $6.00 in
your pocket?
The seemingly
obvious answer was No.
Do you have a house where you
can sleep in at the moment?
The seemingly
obvious answer was No.
Do you own a recording studio?
The seemingly
obvious answer was No.
Can you afford to record your
music?
The seemingly
obvious answer was No.
Do you think you can make your
dreams come true then?
My obvious answer
was YES!
Basically, I never allowed my
circumstances to determine what
course of action to take. I
simply used whatever challenge(s)
I was presented with as
opportunities to remind myself of
the fact that there is nothing I
can't do as long as I have enough
faith and belief in myself.
So while most people look at
the world around them, their so
called "hard cold facts," and use
them as a way to determine what
is possible for them, I continued
to look inside as a reminder of
the fact that the blue sky the
painter saw in the outside for
the second time, is the same
reality I was in the process of
creating. But instead of the blue
sky, I was just creating my music
studio.
With my faith I saw the music
studio. With my beliefs replacing
the painter's brushes I moved in
that direction. And I used the
canvas of my life to paint my
beliefs into it. The result, I
saw my studio for the second
time. If you would like to see it
as well, visit my website:
http://www.CheckMyMusic.com
and you'll see a picture of my
music studio and audio clips of
the music CD that is about to be
released.
If I had been in denial, I
would have felt helpless. With my
awareness however, I am powerful!
And guess what? So are you!
