Integration: Positive From Negative

Last week, I introduced the topic of Integration.

Today, I want to start discussing some methods for beginning to integrate the Power of Mortality™ into your life.

Obviously, in order to start taking advantage of The Power of Mortality™, one of the first things you need to do is ensure that you are very clear about the life you would like to be living. In the past, I’ve provided some suggestions for getting started on the voyage of self-discovery. I even have an entire section devoted to this in “The Mortality Manual - A Workbook for Tapping Into The Power of Mortality“. Today I want to suggest another approach.

I want you to to look to the negative in order to discover the positive. I want you to think about all of the negative thoughts and feelings that you have about your life. Think about your work-life, your family-life, your financial-life, your relationships, your health, your social-life, your leisure time and so on. Now notice any negative thoughts or feelings that may arise.

Now - this part is very important! You are NOT to dwell on these negative emotions. You are only noticing them in order to bring your attention to areas of your life that you would like to change. In fact, when you get right down to it - that is the purpose for negative feelings and emotions: to highlight what we don’t want so that we can begin to create the circumstances that will bring us the feelings and emotions that we do want.

This week I want you to be on the lookout for negativity in your life. When you encounter it do your best to avoid getting sucked into the judgments and drama and instead simply notice negativity and think about what you would like to be experiencing instead.

ENJOY NOW!
~~~
