What you are calling your life, is a completely fabricated illusion. An illusion created on a minute-by-minute basis, with your perception. In the last post, we discussed the victim stories you hang onto, in a desperate attempt to absolve yourself of blame.
When this happens, you’re actually creating an illusionary world to live in. Because what you focus on, good or bad, ultimately becomes your reality.
So the first step is doing the critical thinking to discover what the stories you’ve already sold to yourself are.
Hopefully when you read the last post something jumped out at you, and you realized that your story that you’re hanging on to, is holding you back. Maybe you’ve convinced yourself that…
I can’t __________
I always ____________
My problem is _____________
I never _________
I completely suck at _________
You’re the consultant (personal trainer, massage therapist, coach, hairstylist, etc.) who has sold yourself the story that there are no more good clients out there, willing to pay you what you want you want to charge.
Until you realize this is an illusion you’ve created, it will continue to be your reality.
Maybe you’ve sold yourself that a previous abuse in your life prevents you from opening up and accepting love. Or that you’re not attractive enough to appeal to anyone. Or that all the good guys (gals) are taken.
Until you realize this is an illusion you’ve created, it will continue to be your reality.
So let’s go back to this illusion you’re calling your life…
You can change that illusion – the moment you choose to. And that’s where we’ll begin on the next post…

A few weeks ago, a friend on facebook - a very successful female "home buisness owner" and teacher of same, asked: what do you think is your main obstacle in marketing? ( or something to that effect)..
I replied "releasing illusion". the same is true for life and living.. it's "our story", we've all got one.. our self concept really.. how we define our creator and our relationship to our creator..
I think you are right. We all live in an illusion of what we conceive reality to be.
