Meditat<\/strong>e<\/h4>\n\n\n\nThere\u2019s a number of methods that can be used to bring awareness to these patterns that govern our behaviour. The first<\/strong> I recommend is meditation. Really. It\u2019s not a panacea, however, it is the foundation for most other tools. Awareness is the cure-all, and without meditation, awareness doesn’t grow. Also, there\u2019s a saying in the Zen lineage I\u2019m part of \u201cfor every year of daily meditation, you gain 1 second between trigger and response\u201d. Each second is an eternity when you consider how fast you can drop into anger, fear, lust, or any other emotion that hijacks your true desire.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDiscover<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe second<\/strong> part is actually inspecting, and discovering what it is that YOU really want to do, either at this moment or in this life. Again, meditation can be useful for this, in this case, an analytical meditation would be great. Get into that meditative state (if you don\u2019t know how – check out my other videos and articles on this in the description). Once there, you simply bring focus to your heart. Feel grateful for this heart and all the work it does for you. Even while you\u2019re deep in dreamless sleep it beats on keeping you alive. Here. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThen you simply ask it. What is my true desire? Ask out loud, so the vibrations of your question can be felt in every cell of your body. You\u2019re asking them all to vote, and bring the answer to you. You will be surprised at how the answer comes. Either a vision, or a memory, or sound. Something will come. Even an impulse to write something down from that state is great. Let it flow out of you, through you. Now, you know. Now you have an idea of what it is you truly want to do. And, now you know what your inner child truly desires. You can do this as many times as you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Get into Action<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe third <\/strong>part is where the rubber hits the road. Now we turn thought into action. There are two parts to this. The first part is to stay in a meditative state and ensure you have a journal or notebook nearby. Again, drop into your heart and ask – \u201cShowmen when I allow my true desires to be overridden by others\u201d. Again, you will be surprised at how quickly this can come. <\/p>\n\n\n\nGive it time, but if it\u2019s not forthcoming, simply ask again, maybe modifying the question a bit in a way you choose. Once you have the answer, start getting curious about the situation that comes up. How is it like other situations? Do you see the thread, the method that is being used to make you give up on your desires? Do you see the freedom, in knowing what it is you truly want and that you can actually have it? Did you know that you can disagree?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Journal<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Finally, <\/strong>write down that situation. Use as much detail as you can, then distill it down to a simple statement that you can fit into a post-it note. Something that\u2019s easy to remember, that reminds you of how it is that you\u2019re giving up your ability to pursue your dreams. Once you\u2019ve written it down, make a commitment to yourself to notice when this happens again. At this point you don\u2019t need to expect that you can simply change it – even if you feel you can at the moment you may find it difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBecoming a REBEL LEADER<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Next time you notice that situation coming up if you do notice at the moment – great! See if you can change your behaviour. Don’t feel bad if you cannot, you\u2019re dealing with programming that has been in place for many years now. It can take time to lock into it, and then change it. Simply celebrate the fact that you are now aware of it. Honour yourself for noticing – EVEN if it\u2019s after the fact. This is a SKILL, and you CAN get better at it. Simply be happy with any little bit of progress you make, in the path to emotional mastery, and becoming a REBEL LEADER in your own life and purpose!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Connect – Emotional Mastery is the Answer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Connect with your inner child often. Use the heart meditation to build this connection. Discover what it is you truly want in life. Bring awareness to the places in life where you are allowing the desires of others to push your own truth and purpose away. And finally, pursue the path of the Rebel Leader, get skillful at saying what you want, and moving towards it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How have you noticed this showing up in your life? What are the methods that your parents, bosses, or anyone else in power over you using? How are emotions running your life?
