Gerald Speaks

This is an important message that i need to take note and be constantly aware of. It is the link from where i am to where i want to be. It is the hot button that brings everything together. It is the secret that makes success a reality and brings everything back to the present. It is not about what other tell me but what i have noticed myself. At least one of those new things that i am conscious of. Not all the old things that have faded into the background. Why i said unveil the veil is because a lot of times we don't see what is blocking us. It is a blind spot. It is the archilles heel that causes us to stumble and fall. It is what saps our energy and kill our spirit at the subconscious level. Over the years i have heard feedbacks from different people like don't put yourself down. Don't be too humble. It is not whether i think it is good you must think it is good too. Heck we put ourselves down in a thousand ways each day without realising it. And sometimes too tricky for people to even notice it. But if there is a chief barrier to overcome this is it. This is what sets winners from losers but not because winners are more deserving. It is about what they allow themselves to accomplish. This allowing part is the key to success, happiness and a whole lot more. It is the secret to BE in the BE-DO-HAVE equation. I realised the other day my aversion to doing good things for myself. For example. I bought this beautiful Rm5 ceramic pen holder which was wrapped in paper and lying in my car for days and i have almost forgotten about it. Then i realised i wanted to decorate my table with it but i experience such great resistance just trying to bring it to my desk. Why? Is there an inner mechanism that prevents me from doing good things for myself. Is there a self saboteur that is guarding my gate to happiness? Has the fear of success been there for so long that when it finally comes i feel inundated by it? And does it explain a whole lot more things like why my house is a mess. Why i don't respond to my emails sometimes. Why i work late. Why i am not meeting new people. Why i don't take action immediately. There are a thousand doubts and resistance which all boils down to that invisible trigger of poor self esteem which says i can't be better because. It is like an old cassette playing in the background. I found the source of it once. It was my grandmother's incessant comments and feedback which lingered in the background. And i realised my whole life i have been reacting to the negative voice of why i can't do this or that. Until one day i realised that it doesn't matter. I learnt to side step the voice of the inner critic and i found myself to be free and I regained my power. You don't have to accept all the values that is projected on you. Be aware of this inner critic that is holding you back for your own good. The way to overcome this is to take action immediately. Do what you love and want to here and now. Be spontaneous. Reclaim your power. Realise that what is stopping you is not you. And when that happens you have the power to choose. The power to choose is what will set you free. Just do it.
