Pick a State, Any State

However, avoiding every temptation to have the State pick you is key; because you likely won't get one that feels or fits best. Worse, you'll be stuck in State characterized by automatic responses to already unconscious thinking patterns: also known as "sleepwalking." Thinking patterns that have failed to deliver the quality of Life you desire; so how will MORE of the same produce different results? It won't because it can't, and NO amount of making excuses for yourself EVER changes that. Life is only lousy when your thinking is lousy.

Imagine dinner at a restaurant where you don't choose the meal, but must accept whatever is served. You certainly won't starve, you also won't delight in the experience. After all, an endless supply of cold, stale french fries will sustain you, but why when for the mere "inconvenience" of decision, fresh lobster is yours? NEVER confuse settling on the routine for getting exactly what you want.

Ever feel negative, confused, exasperated, angry or depressed with absolutely NO clue WHY? Could it be you haven't yet exercised your POWER of CHOICE? Might this be a metaphor for anything happening in your Life?

So let's square with ourselves to push past the unconscious defaults, shall we? The truth is, most of us limit our range of Emotional States and settle for a meager handful: happiness, joy, fear, anger, sadness, guilt, confusion, grief, apathy, complacency and perhaps a few predictable others. However, a minimum of conscious intent generates an inventory of infinite accessible States; while simultaneously compounding the scope, intensity and richness of ALL our emotional Life experiences. Or...let's just go on convincing ourselves the slavish love of perpetual inattentiveness and sloppy disregard of our own potential with which we have grown so familiar truly serves us. But I digress...

There are BILLIONS, if not INFINITE potential Emotional States; most unexplored by humans. Exotic "New Worlds" of tantalizing sensation and experience. Most remaining obscured, until we simply awaken to give the order, "GO!" Consider ALL you are missing and ALL you are NOT experiencing when the unleashing of such potent transformation needs only the very acknowledgement of its own potential to manifest. How much more undifficult can this become?

Your Emotional State: The Key To Self-Mastery

As I pursue the ever so necessary and relentless refinement of my sense of responsibility , i.e, an ever -sharpening focus on the task of OWNING more and more of my daily reality, the conscious management of my Emotional States (or ES for shorthand) remains the dominant priority, the brass ring closest for the grabbing and biggest in potential reward.


It's quite an accomplishment in itself to finally wake yourself from years, perhaps even eternities of self-induced hypnotic trance only to discover that at any one random moment and every present moment, we find ourselves living thru some form of Emotional State.


Given we live, perceive and interpret all of our experiences completely immersed within these States, will you agree it wise to afford them serious study? When you finally get this simple, profound, yet undeniable truth: you always swim in some Emotional State, then you can re-discover the POWER of CONSCIOUS CHOICE to CHANGE that State. It immediately stops being something that just "happens to you,"or a situation that must be endured; to transform into a resource of personal power pointing you in any direction it may take you for the most benefit.


Ask yourself every time,"Which Emotional State am I experiencing; and is it the one I'd most like to enjoy now?" A very useful question. If you're like the majority of humanity, the first few times you ask may seem perplexing or daunting because you haven't yet wired in the habit of consciously checking your emotional location; and, like 99% of humanity, when you finally do, you'll quickly realize your current ES isn't your first choice. Most of us have conditioned ourselves to reside unconsciously in perpetually crappy ESs; then opt to REMAIN unconscious as our strategy for not dealing with it. It's the old, "If I just work hard enough NOT to see it, then it must not really be there in the first place" delusion. NOT a strategy that serves us well because it perpetuates a permanent state of personal misery while also denying us access to any potential solutions to that misery. One of several strange and twisted games we play with ourselves. Most live their entire lives on the receiving end of whatever ES pops up in reaction to the outside slings and arrows of the World. Do you? Most FORFEIT their POWER of CHOICE to select the ES that best serves them. Have you? Most live lives of "quiet desperation" slogging year after year through the sewage of negativity, discomfort, confusion and self loathing...never really knowing WHY, rather simply ENDURING. Do you?


Can you imagine, never having to settle for less again? Of course you can because freedom begins with the understanding we all live 24/7 365 in an Emotional State. As Masters of our World, we become FREE to exercise our CONSCIOUS CHOICE over the color, texture and flavor of any State we wish to experience. When you move more and more towards complete ownership of your reality, you also take back possession of all the tools necessary to manage and change it. Helluva deal, isn't it? Don't like the "feel" of your present ES? Then DECIDE on a BETTER ONE. Relax, this will be MUCH easier than you think. I PROMISE.
