Am I Willing To Hold The Vision?
Posted by Ken Lauher
It's one thing to make a pronouncement in a moment of inspiration about what you intend to manifest in your life or what kind of person you intend to become. It's quite another to make a commitment to holding that vision regardless of what difficulties or obstacles may surface. Holding the vision involves an unwillingness to compromise what you're visualizing for yourself.
It means being willing to suffer through criticism and what appears to be an uncooperative universe.
To get to this level, you have to be willing to release some mighty powerful images that you've carried with you since you were a young child. Excuses aren't just words explaining the lack of success in various areas of your life - they also show up as pictures or visions that you carry around with you, a series of photos that you see projected on your inner screen.
These visuals are strong because they've appeared on your screen so many times in so many varied circumstances that they've become reality. Even though they're excuse-based images that define your imagined self with all of its shortcomings, they've become your guides. They've stood the test of time and have been reinforced by many well-meaning friends and family members.
They're like trusted confidants, giving you the same advice and encouragement about dealing with life from a perspective of what you can't accomplish, how unlucky you are, or how unfortunate you are to have the life experiences you've had. They're quite adept at showing you how to compromise and settle for less than you might have hoped for.
Your old pictures don't fade or disintegrate quickly, and the screen they appear on can't seem to display anything else. These images of your destiny have ultimately become the definition of you - you've looked at them for so long and become so accustomed to them that you've forgotten that they're actually false.
So if you see yourself as undeserving of financial success, you act on that "unworthy" image. The fact that this is a mind virus caught from many other minds is of no consequence. It's still defining your reality and hindering you from projecting alternative pictures for yourself.
You can readjust your willingness meter to avow that you're open to seeing an alternative vision by affirming: I am worthy of attracting unlimited abundance and prosperity into my life, regardless of what life experiences have gone before me. I only reinforce and contemplate images that are in harmony with this vision.
After all, it's your inner screen and yours alone. No one from your past has exclusive rights to what plays on your screen - you can display whatever you deem appropriate and can delete anything you choose.
Even if you're not convinced that you can change or make something happen that has never happened before, are you in fact willing to hold a new vision? If your response isn't a wholehearted "Yes!" see if there's an old picture on your inner screen; if so, allow it to disintegrate as you watch.
Eventually, you'll be willing to hold the vision of yourself as smart, energetic, and deserving of the best that life has to offer. When that happens, you'll be a vibrational match to the Source of all, and this new receptivity will become your Excuses Begone! way of life.
As the Bible warns: "
Where there is no vision, the people perish" (Proverbs 29:18). I'd add that when you have a faulty vision based on excuses and memes, you'll also perish. Not in the literal sense of course - but if you insist on remaining a being who's living an unfulfilled life, then the authentic you destined for greatness, happiness, success, and health will die.
Hold a vision that asserts: "
I'm entitled to be respected, loved, and happy: to feel fulfilled and prosperous; to exercise; and to enjoy all the moments of my life! This is my vision, and I'm more than willing - I'm absolutely determined that this is what will come my way." When anything crops up that's inconsistent with this vision, take the advice of Lao-tzu: "
In order to eliminate the negative influences, simply ignore them." Such words are so simple, yet so profound.
