We can endeavor to move forward whether we believe we have what it takes to get there or not. The simplicity of taking action creates the necessary propulsion. The very nature of taking action of any kind gets us into motion. It how we use that action and what we allow to drive it that brings us to the end result. We can be propelled by our mind’s ideas, our heart’s intention, or our body’s needs. Most of the time it is a combination of them all. God encourages us to play an active role in generating intentional propulsion to create a life reflecting the truth of who we are. It means learning to notice how our mind works, understanding the functions of our body and identifying the inner landscape of our hearts. We are whole people and while we often allow the propulsion to move us based on defaulted systems, we can at any moment take creative control. I can allow my mind’s stories about why this situation is happening at work and why I am irritated all the while propelling my heart into a closed and hovered space prompting my body to slouch and my energy to recede. Most likely I will until I decide it would be a more creative use of my energy to notice that what is happening is for my learning and not because life is out to make things difficult for me. One thing about living a life soberly is there is no one left to blame and because of my daily dates with God, I learned there is not much point in blame. It may be handy but not fruitful. All it seems to garner is the propulsion of more victimhood. I played that role for a long time because it was the default one. When I woke up and reconnected with my heart, I began to form a picture of a life that propelled me into a realm of understanding and acceptance. The gift is a willingness to see when I have managed to propel myself back into that mode and turning on my creativity which shows me how to use the propulsion of my very being how to get up and out.
