Fear is the biggest lie. The truth is that we have nothing to fear when we trust or have faith. Shitty things may still happen but this is when we learn and grow. The point is to overcome and keep overcoming. Besides, what is the worst that could happen? You die? So what? That’s life and I assure you that you will grow from that experience too.
There are many lies in this world that keep us from living our full potential or a completely joyous life. Scarcity is one. We are tricked into beLIEving that there isn’t enough to go around so we climb all over each other for scraps of shit. All the while we are kings and queens. ”I can’t” is another lie and typically translates as “I won’t” which is carefully protected by a pile of defensive excuses. Congratulations!!! You get to live in the mindset of your choice.
Part of the biggest lie; fear, is that we’ve become a permission based entity. We don’t move unless the big authority says to and we wait for permission to speak, think or act. How many opportunities will we allow ourselves to miss out on because we are fearful? This is our conditioning and psychosis.
What are we really afraid of? Things won’t work out? We’ll be criticized? We’ll get hurt or punished? Death? The future?
For starters, the future does NOT exist!!! You are absolutely not afraid of the future. It’s a ghost. What you fear is a projection based on your past experiences. That’s it. I know it seems real but we truly swim in an infinite ocean of love, abundance, grace and experience. We are rich beyond our wildest dreams. Do we know this without doubt? That is the trillion-dollar question.
Often we think of a lie as an act. ”He or she lied to me”. Not really. We build the patterns of our experience based on the story we perpetually tell ourselves. This is not the type of lie that I’m talking about. I’m pointing out the biggest lie. Fear. It is a shadow of love and it has become like an invisible cloak that we do not even realize we are wearing. The spell is starting to wear off. The effects of a poison apple can only last for so long. Stop pushing snooze and wake up.
If you want to dance or sing or go to school or quit your job or learn french or travel the world or help people or love more or speak up at a company meeting about your awesome idea…
Then I officially give you permission to do so.

I agree, and also don’t understand why someone would need permission from someone else to grow and become the true expression of who you should be.
You are the only person who can control who you become.
