Tomorrow always seems brighter. No matter how dark today gets and how many clouds show up in the sky. It rains and the clouds clear up. Sometimes its easier to maintain this perspective than other times. This perspective is one of a brighter future and walking more towards the light. "The closer you get to the light, the greater your shadow becomes." Let us not lose sight of dark, the shadow. "We must confront this shadow..." is a very typical response and its definitely in the right direction. Although I would suggest thinking of it more along lines of becoming friends with this shadow, getting to know it better. Confrontation creates good and bad; dualism. To transcend dualism, we must come from a place of unconditional love, non-judgement, and total acceptance. When we accept that our shadow will always be a part of us we can finally love ourselves fully, accept ourselves with open arms, and cast aside judgement and the idea that we are not worthy along with it. My transition into the idea of becoming a host on a podcast was only possible because I shifted one major thing. I realized that I continued to think I loved myself, but it was a complete and utter lie. I continued lying to myself over and over. I was never good enough in my own eyes to be accepted. I didn't accept myself, so why would I think others would? After walking on eighteen feet of hot coals during a fire walk, I was able to overcome. I realized that I wasn't forgiving myself for small things that I would easily forgive someone else for. Why am I holding such a high standard for myself while pretending I didn't care? I had never asked myself that question. Magic happens when you allow it to. You create your own reality. I was done with always feeling the need to be accepted by others. I decided I deserved to be accepted by my own self. I created a practice of forgiveness that I continue to do EVERY SINGLE DAY. That's what it takes folks. I am so incredibly happy to have an opportunity to bring all of you great people this life changing information. It wouldn't have been possible had I not made this incredible shift to actual real self love, self acceptance, and non-judgement of self. I would like to thank George Carroll for he has shown me the way to becoming a great facilitator myself. I'm doing the self work every day. My commitment to all of you beautiful souls is to do the work every day so I can become my best version. This is so I can continue to push each of you to do the same. There is always work to be done, and I'm not closing up shop early. Let's burn the midnight oil and change the world.
