What about the power of the right question? By Val Green

(After each question, you might want to pause and reflect.)

When you define a situation as being one that you can find no peace in – is that a “point of view” problem?

Can your resisting unwanted mental images create a conflicted point of view? 

If you try to solve a conflicted feeling that comes from a conflicted point of view by resisting it – would you be struggling with the effect of the way you have been thinking and forgetting to resolve the cause? (Would that be like trying to mop up a flooded basement before you turn off the faucet that was left open?)

Are you making the most of your comfort zone? By Val Green

(After each question, you might want to pause and reflect.)

Why are comfort zones – called comfort zones…if they end up being so uncomfortable? Is another name for a comfort zone a limiting belief?

What is the benefit in a comfort zone?  Could it benefit you – if you were to step outside of one of your fixed beliefs? Can you think of a mental or emotional state of mind that has become a trap? Continue reading “Are you making the most of your comfort zone? By Val Green”

What is your relationship to time?

Imagine that the mind is the most powerful tool in the Universe.  Now imagine you not understanding how to use this tool to its full benefit. Would you then be in the process of developing that skill?  If you were given the time to make mistakes and correct them – to learn how best to use this tool, would you see that as a benefit and a gift?

What if you believed that there were mistakes that you made that you simply could not correct? Would time then be perceived as a punishment and even perhaps a curse?  If you believe that you have to go through time without the ability to change past mistakes – the mistakes made from being naïve or inexperienced – would you feel like you had a curse placed upon you without recourse?
