You’re doing the work and you want results. You want to see those results now.

Actually, you wanted to see those results yesterday, if not sooner, and you’ll be damned if you’re going to keep working so hard unless you start seeing those results STAT.

You are doing the work after all.

You are doing the work, right? going to assume that’s a yes so we can proceed…

A simple change of mindset regarding result-oriented blockage was laid on my heart as a 3 word question to ask myself.

“WHAT’S MY GIVE?”

Like all I present, it’s not new, it’s not a secret, and you’ve undoubtedly known about it your entire life.

But there’s a good chance you haven’t been employing it. At least until you’re reminded of it. *I happen to require a multitude of reminders. These posts are my reminders.*

Every time I’m feeling frustrated or powerless in my efforts and the desire for better-bigger-broader and quite possibly improbable results that are often unrealistically ambitious in proportion to that which I’m contributing, I’m shown that once again I’M NOT EMPLOYING IT.

Disrupting the balance of the process.

Which means I’m doing myself and the rest of the world a disservice.

Not because it’s “better to give than receive” or that it’s about becoming a better person, which we’ve already called out as a misguided intention.

It’s about accessing and moving in your empowered energy. Can you imagine the effects on a world where we were all activated into doing so?

Giving enables that.

Giving fuels and drives us because of its ability to fulfill an inherent need deep within that often goes unnoticed and unanswered.

The need to serve.

Through the act of which, we each are served.

Simply put, effort put forth is the give and your outcome is the get.

You don’t actually have any control over the outcome, whereas you have full and complete authority over your efforts.

Focusing on your efforts puts you in the driver’s seat on the road to your outcome, whereas focusing on the outcome is the equivalent of being an idle passenger asking repeatedly at disturbingly short intervals, “are we there yet?”

As the driver of your own life, you’re always “there”. It just takes navigating some twists, turns, and potholes in the road to gain awareness of that fact.

And even then, we’ll forget it occasionally often.

So let’s remind one another.
