Freedom
Our past sets up predispositions. For most people, those predispositions determine much of their life forever. A key to freedom is understanding that predisposition does not equal predetermination. The difference is your conscious choice, your will.
Even how you think about that is likely colored by past programming…which you can change if you want to.
Remember this: the Truth does not cause pain. If you have a belief or perception that causes you to feel hopeless, angry, sad, etc, those feelings are the clear indication that that belief or perception is off.
The Universe actually works…and with such an intricate, unerring order, that it’s almost unfathomable….governed by Truth (natural law). When you understand what is True, and think in ways that are true, your life will work with such an order.
“Ye shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall set you free.” JC
If someone comes to your door selling vacuums, you don’t have to buy. No matter how convincing their sales pitch. That’s your choice. When a pattern of thought comes knocking at your minds door, wanting to sell you a load of pain…no matter how buyable the pitch is, how many times you have bought in the past…you don’t have to go with it. (You may want to unsubscribe from their auto-ship program.)
You can remember that Truth empowers and misinformation (which misaligns you with the reality of Life) disempowers…and feeling the disempowerment of the thought, your clear understanding can recognize “That thought isn’t True. It only seems true because it matches my programming, but it actually isn’t. And as I don’t buy it, and instead refocus on a perspective that empowers me, Ill have a better life and even the programming will change.”
If you claim the issues you get to keep them. Why do that? Your words have power and influence reality. Every word you speak has an effect that either blesses or hurts your life. So why speak words that aren’t a blessing to you. You don’t have to.
Pay attention to the patterns of predisposition that have been running you. The key is being conscious…the conscious direction of your life, your creative force, for the life-experience you actually want. Before acting, before speaking, even when thoughts come up…remember what you really want, take full responsibility for your life, and direct yourself accordingly.
You can witness your thoughts, your beliefs, your moods and emotions…which means you are not any of those things. You are the witness, which is also the chooser when you remember. Your sovereignty comes from existence itself “Made in the image and likeness of God…” Nothing has the power to take that away (though it can be forgotten).
When you are not conscious, clearly your consciousness—You—are not directing the show. So the patterns of the past play auto-pilot based on what they have learned (doing the best they can actually).
(Here is a tip: anytime you think, say, or do anything that is not in your highest good, there is some degree of unconsciousness at work. In a truly clear space, no one ever consciously chooses pain…for themselves or others.)
There are things you can control and things you can’t. Focusing on what you can’t control disempowers you. Consciously moving your attention to what you can control in every situation will empower you. Ask “what can I do about this?” and do it. Don’t blame yourself, don’t blame others, and don’t indulge negativities that won’t benefit you…just ask what you can do that is positive and do it. And go neutral to the rest (since that’s all you can do). This is a recipe for freedom.
When you become aware in a moment that you were being directed by an old pattern (worrying, judging, despairing, etc), be glad that you realized it because now you can shift. If frustration, self-judgment, impatience come up, i.e. “Why am I still doing that, I know better…am I ever going to get it?”…realize that is just another layer of patterning and don’t indulge it. It won’t help. Just recognize that the patterning was established over time and it may require some time and consistency to fully transform it…be glad that you recognized it, and simply shift. No drama needed.
Right now, reading these words, there may even be a pattern coming up saying “I can’t do that, its too hard…its not that simple…I don’t have the energy, etc”. That also, is just a pattern, programmed in the past, not even by you. It’s ok that it comes up. Just recognize it as a programmed reaction…you can even anticipate when it will likely come up…but recognize that it’s not advantaging you, and ultimately not True…and don’t buy into it. And redirect your thinking and perceiving in a manner that better produces what you want. That’s all. It’s actually simple.
Easy and hard are states of mind about energy application. All shifts require energy application. That does not have to be subjectively related to as hard. Calling what needs to be done hard, is just another unconscious pattern of thought that will not benefit you. “See the job, do the job, and stay out of the misery.” Maharishi
And enjoy your life. It’s a beautiful gift. Attune your awareness to the beauty of life. What you put your attention on grows.
Got it?
I know you are capable. I hope you let yourself discover that as well.
Peace and blessings to you.

P.S. To make shifting (and staying there) easier, you can dissipate the energy out of the old patterns so their pull is progressively less. The first part of doing that we have already discussed: simply noticing them when they arise, and recognizing them as conditioned patterns that are ultimately not True. Awareness alone transforms a lot.
In addition, you can look at the events and conditions from your life that contributed to the development of those patterns and do two things:
1. Make peace around all the hurts that occurred so you don’t carry them with you (you can go to www.howardwills.com for a great resource for peace-making).
2. Look at how you perceived those events and conditions and what meanings you may have given them…and reassess them now with a wider and deeper understanding and more compassion (for yourself and others)…find the gifts and positive lessons…and a meaning for all of it that empowers you.
