Overcoming The Loser Spirit: Allowing Love To Flow Into Your Life...(Lesson #14)



Lack of  authentic love in our lives can make us feel as though we are staggering along a dried up riverbed. We seek this authentic love in our daily interactions and yet we still come up short. We  kill time in relationships and marriages because we don't know what else to do with ourselves.Far off in the distance, we can hear the rumbling of authentic love roaring down the riverbed. We long for the healing properties of authentic love and wonder if the correct dosage will be enough to fill the eternal vacant sections of our soul.
And, yet as it flows closer to us we become worried that we are not worthy of such a gift. Immediately, we look for ways to block its arrival. Most of the time, we are able to successfully block it from our lives. We tell ourselves that authentic love will always come back for us. But, as the years flow on and we notice that authentic love comes around us less and less.

Exercise #1
  •  Are you ready for authentic love to move into your life?
  • What are some ways in which you are currently blocking authentic love from your life?
  • What does authentic love look like to you?
Song of the Day: Symphony No. 3 in F major, Op. 90 by Johannes Brahms

Meditation:
I will allow authentic love to flow into my life. I realize that excessive social media use, friends with benefits deals, dead-end mind games with exes,  and other toxic situations are blocking me from authentic love.
From this day forward, I actively choose to become a source and supporter of authentic love.

BGU: Summer Hours

I love working during the summer. Even the most hectic work and/or school day can still be halfway pleasant during sunny weather. Daylight stretches long into the evening hours and you can find yourself stepping out of your workplace and right into an after work cocktail party. New people are buzzing around town. Perhaps, they are working on summer projects for their respective employers, working internships, and/or attending classes. Summer is also a great time for plotting the next career step or life transition. How will you be spending your summer hours? Will your summer be all about work or will you manage to sneak in a few weeks of leisurely travel? I am planning on working, spending time with friends and family, and working on our farm.

Week 3-Make Better Choices Making different choices requires that you hold yourself up to a higher standard of personal accountability…which can be exceedingly uncomfortable.

Upon further self-reflection, you realize that you rarely stock your food pantry. Going forward, you hit the grocery store once a week to stock your house with food.
