Giving To Yourself

The thing that seems to have been overlooked at school, at church and elsewhere throughout the system is that, most things that matter, are things we must learn to give ourselves.

For example…in school we are trained to set our sights on getting a good job. We work hard, we put in the time, hoping someone will give us that job.

We go out into the world in full ownership of our time and how we use it during each day. Then we compete with others to give control of that time to someone else (in exchange for money) and then spend the following days trying to get some of that time back.

In the world of the public and private systems, we do the same thing. We come into this world free. We consent to give up most or all of that freedom and then struggle to try to get some of it granted back to us.

Do you have a Driver’s License? Consent to be controlled.

Have you signed a signature card at the bank in the name of your corporate franchise? (We’ll get to it if this is a new phrase for you.) Consent to be controlled.

Do you endorse the back of checks with your name and hand them over to the bank making THEM the holder in due course of the negotiable instrument and actually handing over what we think is money for them to own? Consent to be controlled.

If the world ever learns the truth about how every loan at a bank gets funded, that it’s actually the life force of your SIGNATURE that creates money out of nothing, and then that “money” you created is actually loaned back to you WITH interest, you might begin to realize just how powerful you are.

It’s the same idea, planted in every area of life, creating problems everywhere it grows.

We are trained to go out there and get things we actually have the capacity to give ourselves.

What would happen if humanity woke up to this truth?

You can create what you need. Do you believe that? If not, then THAT’S the work. Not figuring out “how to quit your job.” That comes later. The foundation is a magical and alchemical one.

YOU ARE MAGIC. YOU HAVE THE POWER.

This makes corporate holidays like Thanksgiving even odder. Because we are taught to be grateful for what we have on that day. Gratitude is an amazing force in the world. It is magic, pure and simple.

But that’s not really what we’re taught about it. We’re taught that we should be grateful for what we have in a way that reinforces the illusion that the big, bad world is “out there” and that we have little to no say about what happens there or how that affects us. So just be thankful for what you get slave.

This would all be very rational unless you actually find yourself face to face with the truth at some point. And then all this training we got turns out to be just a little bit like a total lie.

Freedom is yours. The journey is not about having it granted to you, the journey is about reclaiming what you were trained to give away.

Time is yours. YOU are in control of your time. No one else. To the extent you give control of that time away to others, you run the risk of stepping into the illusion where you have no time left for “you.” What an odd thing to do to ourselves. We didn’t come thinking that way. We were trained to do these weird things because they are “normal.”

But normal is NUTS and DEADLY.

Money is simply a form of energy. If you try to “get it” from others, you have already lost the game. If you realize you have the capacity to create it yourself through the act of GIVING to others in certain forms, and if you take the journey to figure out what that could look like for you, the entire picture flips.

Love is yours. It is what you are. The journey is not about getting it from others, it is about learning you can give it to yourself.

Do you see the pattern here?
