Hello friends,
hope you are well on this amazing Thursday evening (for you whatever day or time it is when you’re reading this).
You know while I was researching this topic, something stood out. I found something that quite a lot of entrepreneurs are doing, and I often get the same sentence quite a lot, “Birds of the same feathers flock together.” We’ve got this sentence a little twisted by our egos you see. It’s almost saying that we’re better than others by hanging around with like-minded people. It really and truly is stating that. So what happens if your family members are not at the level of consciousness, you’re at? Are you just going to dump them? What happens if people who really want to connect with you because they’re inspired by you simply because they’ve found something from you, or found out something from you which most people won’t really be honest about? You know it’s one thing to dump negative friends but it’s another thing not to engage with people who are still trying to reach a level of consciousness that you’re in. Not all negative people are out there to destroy and belittle others, there are different levels of negativity (scarcity, fear, judgemental, constantly complaining, gossiping, etc.). So my question to you as an entrepreneur, business owner, employee, employer, a person or someone who wants to elevate the frequency of the people of this world is what if you had your own business, or currently have your own business, do you meet people where they’re at, i.e. your customers or do you simply cast out the ones that are still not meeting YOU at your terms of consciousness or ego? Are they not your bread and butter? Are they not your fans? Are they not your supporters?
The question is are we meeting people with oneness or are we creating division which is more negativity in this world?
I am learning that as much as it’s good to flock with birds of the same feathers often so that you continue elevating your consciousness it’s still necessary to be with people on all levels (you simply can’t control who you are going to meet) because if we are entrepreneurs and if entrepreneurs are doing self-development work, we go around saying we’re attracting what is a reflection of us, then isn’t it fair to say that if we’re so working on ourselves shouldn’t we be good at managing the energies in us as we work with ALL who come into our space? Just saying, this is what came up today. It’s one thing if you’re constantly drained by someone’s nature because they’re alienating everyone that engages with them. This person should really be told if loyalty is part of your values and if they haven’t made the effort to change then that’s a story on its own. If we trust ourselves so much, then shouldn’t we be trusting intuition/higher intelligence and protect our energy when the alarm is sounding pretty loud? I tell you what I have found in our current world, maybe this is why COVID have sent so many people back to their families, i.e. to their base. There is a difference between running away from what we don’t like (possibly coming from ego). Are we running away from the energy we don’t like or the energy we still do not understand? There’s a difference. Can we be part of elevating this energy so that everyone stops hurting so that everyone starts to understand? – T. Dench Patel, 9 September 2020, 21:42
It’s a good skill to have when you can work with oneness and protect your energy. I can truly say that there is a lack of people in this area, why? Because it’s such a hard thing to do! Yes, controlling your inner energy from not even knowing what’s coming your way, but the good news is, we can depend on the higher intelligence if self-development work is happening on the daily basis. I mean, even Oprah beefed the cattle industry, did she know she was going to meet with someone’s negativity by them suing her? See, no one knows who is going to come up to them in what blimming way while one is trying to carry out their purpose. You’re bound to miff or inspire people; you are not in control of how they’re going to take what you serve while you carry out your soul purpose.
If you take a look at this article this will help you so much with helping you with not getting swept into people’s currents where they can have the upper hand of choosing very artfully how to press the buttons i.e. charming you, to get the smile out of you, getting what they want out of you, to manipulate you, to bring you down, to get you to do something etc. for all the wrong reasons, that is. I can see why people run from anyone that is judged right away even if this is not the intention because we cannot control our inner energy, it’s easier to run. I know tons of people even very successful people that do this, I even do this too (sorry, just being honest), I will make efforts to change this. I think the first question to ask is this, is the person standing in front of you looking to make a difference in their life? If they’re already in the self-development arena, this is easily answered. Can you imagine what a powerful skill it is to have, where you can work with just about everyone in one way or another? Can you imagine what a powerful skill it is to have to share, exchange experiences and wisdom by protecting your energy?
So before we go further it’s good to know https://strongsensitivesouls.com/protect-your-energy/. This is a very good article that goes into the following:
1) Don’t be so agreeable
2) Create a visual
3) Use a mantra
4) Create a home sanctuary
5) Trust in yourself
6) Trust in others
7) React less
8) Be busy
9) Understand your own negativity
10) Ground yourself in nature
The truth is you can control the time you spend with people without really discarding people forever who are just coming from their own patterns not really out to harm someone.
This article is incredible http://www.oprah.com/inspiration/protecting-your-spiritual-energy
I went like wow at this part.
“From the perspective of your soul, the important question is not how much energy you have, but what kind of energy you have. There are only two kinds of energy. Of course, anger, jealousy, resentment, stress, cravings, addictions and compulsions feel like different energies. Each creates its own kind of physical sensations in your body (they hurt) and acting on each creates a particular kind of consequence (destructive and painful). They appear to be different energies, but they are actually different experiences of one kind of energy: fear.
The other kind of energy is love. Different experiences of love can also feel like different energies, for example, appreciation, gratitude, patience, awe of Life and contentment. Each of these also comes with its own physical sensations in your body (they feel good) and acting on each creates a particular kind of consequence (health and joyfulness). So, even though these experiences feel like different energies, they are actually different experiences of one kind of energy: love.”
From this article https://earthmonk.guru/8-powerful-ways-to-protect-spiritual-energy/
I really like this piece,
“1. Use the spiritual energy and power of love
If you feel you are near negativity, aware that you’re being drained or feeling sensitive bolster, you can protect your energy field by saying to yourself “what’s it like to glow with love.” Enable your unconscious mind to creatively play with the concept of glowing with love by using this phrase. You will find that you immediately connect with the spiritual energy of love, and become a beacon of loving light.
Try a power word such as ‘love’ or ‘light’ and hold that word in the forefront of your mind as you fully connect with the energy and frequency of it.
You can even say a mantra such as “My heart is open and the love of the universe flows through me.” When we say any of these words or phrases we instantly connect with their spiritual energy and their power. Light always overcomes darkness and visualising yourself as a beacon of love recharges your energy whilst neutralising the energies you’re surrounded by.”
I hope this article has helped you a lot, below I have left more resources for you.
