The 71st Inspiration.

Hello again!

My retreat was great but I'm excited to be back! I'm starting with a whole new wave of inspirations. For now, here's last week's Twitter tweachings:

Laugh at absurdity, cherish sincerity, respect difficulty, dismiss negativity, allow unpredictability, accept insecurity & trust possibility.
 
We miss the satisfaction of the present moment because we're usually treating this moment as a way to get to the next one. What's here now?

If we aren't laughing at the voice in our head we're usually being tortured by it. We have to see the humor and not take it too seriously.
   
Complaining and resistance is a gritty and abrasive way to push through life. Lubricate your life with acceptance.

Complaining about what you can't change, won't get you any more of what you want than what you have now. Being grateful invites abundance.
  
Try having a true connection with the next person you have random business with. Ask them how they are before you begin. It changes things.

When your present, you get to watch yourself see what you're going to do next over and over again. It's no wonder we often stay distracted.

I ran into someone who thought second guessing themselves was a bad thing. I think if most of us could keep it down to twice we'd be happy!

Worry is spending a lot of time living in your negative imagination. How many times do we need to watch things work out before we let it go?

Just forgive and bless everyone whenever you feel like complaining. You don't have to feel good about. The power of your intention is enough.

In meditation, you get to just sit and watch yourself complain. When you get bored with yourself, instead of believing yourself, it's working.

My teacher used to say "the mind is a terrible thing to watch". At least you can trust you're not the only one dealing with its craziness.
 
You can't control your thoughts, but you can control whether you tell yourself a story about them or not. They come and go if you let them.

Do you ever feel like you should be somewhere other than where you are? It's just a program that doesn't see where the moment is taking you.

We're guessing at how much reality we personally create but I sense the power will come only after we find peace with what we already have.

Our complaining mind has us convinced we need to worry about tomorrow. It ruined yesterday the same way.

You're never disconnected from your heart or spirit even though it might feel like it. It's yet another illusion of the mind.

Just explaining life's discomfort isn't complaining, unless you overwork being a victim and need to criticize or condemn what's annoying you.

When you're present you're like a blank chalkboard, waiting for life to write something on you and tell what you're supposed to do next.

Peace to you,
Bryan
