Motivational Mechanism Expectations Overcoming Challenges

Good greetings, Bashar. And you, good day. I'd like to follow the protocol that you introduced recently, the three minutes. Speak up, speak up and be bold. All right, bold coming up. You recently introduced a three minute protocol that I would like to follow. Such as? In telling, in relaying a story and the... You mean the pitch. Exactly. Yes. So, yeah. A few years ago, I created a couple of guided meditations, short stories with music. All right. And about two years ago, I decided to do a follow-up on that. All right. I wrote out one script. and didn't really like it, so I started writing another... All right. And wrote, I'm wrote, and wrote. All right. So that is your call to adventure. Okay. That's part one of the pitch. Part two is what challenges did you create for yourself? Well, it became obvious that it was turning into a book. Oh, all right. Is that a challenge? A series of books. Yes. And I could sense that there was this old. that potential playing in there. So every time I sat down to write, I simply affirmed that this is words for my own enjoyment. Yes. And approached it in that way. All right. So you transformed the challenge in that way? I think so. All right. So one, two, three. Yeah. And? So here I am. I've completed the book. Yes. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. And... Now what excites you? Yeah, exactly. Now there's the, this or that, that... I hear a voice saying, well, I don't want to, in 10 years' time, look back and find that I've not done anything with it. So I should get it published. I should find an editor. All right. So are you placing conditions on yourself, or are you simply being excited about those particular ideas? I would say the last. Without any expectation that anything has to come to fruition? Well, not so much. That's the catch, yeah. I mean, I can tell that story in some bit, I believe, but there's an undercurrent. Do you understand that the expectation, and by expectation we mean insistence on something working out in a particular way? Mm-hmm. Do you understand that that's what expectation means when you understand? we use it. Insistence that something has to come to fruition in a particular way. Things will always come to fruition, just not always in the way your physical mind thinks they should. That's why if you actually insist on it coming to fruition in a particular way, you actually close the doors to all sorts of other ways it could actually come to fruition because you're placing conditions and limitations on how your higher mind could actually deliver the true manifestation that you need, whereas you're focusing on what your physical mind thinks it wants. Right.

not always in the way your physical mind thinks they should. That's why if you actually insist on it coming to fruition in a particular way, you actually close the doors to all sorts of other ways it could actually come to fruition because you're placing conditions and limitations on how your higher mind could actually deliver the true manifestation that you need, whereas you're focusing on what your physical mind thinks it wants. Right. So if you understand that by having that expectation, by having that insistence, you're actually shortchanging yourself, one would think you would let that go. And let yourself expand into the willingness to allow the higher mind to bring you what you need through other doors, of other manifestation, of other ways of coming to fruition instead of insisting that this must happen and now this must happen, and now this must happen. If you are willing to just act on any component of this idea with the idea that just being that and acting on that is what excites you without the insistence that it must lead to this or lead to that or come to fruition in a particular way, then you won't shortchange yourself. You won't cut yourself. off from all the ways that it could manifest, which might be many times greater than your physical mind was capable of perceiving. Yes? Yes, that makes sense. Well, then if you understand that, why would you keep hold of the limitation and shortchange yourself? I don't keep hold, I grab hold, and then I let go. All right, well, why would you ever even grab hold of it? Why would it be even a part of your vernacular? You know, I think I do that in the way. inspire of my natural intuition. But the only reason you would do that against your natural intuition is because your motivational mechanism must be connected to belief systems that have turned it around backwards. All of you have the same motivational mechanism. It works the same for everyone. You will always move toward what you believe is more beneficial and you will always move away from what you believe is not beneficial. It's less beneficial to you. If you are recognizing that you're actually continuing to choose something that is truly not beneficial, but you keep choosing it, then that means you've attached a belief to that thing that for some reason you've invented makes it actually appear more beneficial than the alternative, even though you might empirically or intellectually know the alternative will be more beneficial. If you don't choose it, then you have to be more beneficial. then you haven't attached a belief to it that makes it appear more beneficial to what it is your choosing. So you have to find out what that belief is and detach it from the motivational mechanism.

reason you've invented makes it actually appear more beneficial than the alternative, even though you might empirically or intellectually know the alternative will be more beneficial. If you don't choose it, then you have to be more beneficial. then you haven't attached a belief to it that makes it appear more beneficial to what it is your choosing. So you have to find out what that belief is and detach it from the motivational mechanism. And once you do, the instant you do, and put your belief system in alignment and in the direction of what you instinctively truly know is in your best interest, that will be the direction you move in. Those will be the choices you make. That will be the behavior you exhibit. That's the only way. The only way that can happen is if you have belief systems that are polarized to the opposite ends of your motivational mechanism. Yes? Yes. So, again, if you really understand this concept, understand that's how the machine works, understand that that's the nature and the structure of existence, then you will simply use it. If you don't use it, you don't understand it. Yeah. Clear? Clear? I think I understand it. And a few months ago, I started writing another book, which is about a third of the way through. And again, most of the time I'm comfortable with that. It just seems to be... All right, but we're not talking about the times you're comfortable. We're talking about the times you're not. Right? Right. Therefore, the question still remains. What reasons do you invent? invent for choosing to be uncomfortable in your relationship to that circumstance? What conditions and expectations and insistences are you placing on it? What beliefs are you defining it with that choose you, in that sense, to feel uncomfortable with? Yeah, a consensus reality that says you should be doing this. Consensus reality. I have a secret for you. You're the only one in your reality. Okay. The only one. The only one. The only way you can experience what you call consensus is by agreeing to with everyone. But it's your reality. It's your universe. So you get to say what makes sense for you. No one else can tell you that, and you know that. It's really, truly, your universe, really truly, you're the only one in it. But you're the only one in it. to agree to create the appearance of sharing a universe with other beings, a multiverse, if you wish. But it has to be done by agreement. So if you simply no longer choose to agree with those ideas that are offered to you by other beings in other universes that don't work for you, then it won't matter what anyone else suggests. You will know whether or not it works. You can thank you.

it. to agree to create the appearance of sharing a universe with other beings, a multiverse, if you wish. But it has to be done by agreement. So if you simply no longer choose to agree with those ideas that are offered to you by other beings in other universes that don't work for you, then it won't matter what anyone else suggests. You will know whether or not it works. You can thank you. thank them for their advice and their offer and their perspective, and at the same time, you can say, this works for me, this does not work for me. End of story. And it's as simple as that. Yes? Yes. No one else is living your life. No one else is living your life. You are unique. And you get to say what works for you. And consensus. reality is your creation anyway. Yes? It is. So stop arguing with yourself. Okay. Another part of that is that I've shared this with very few people. But whenever I read a passage to my wife, I'll read a paragraph or so and then I'll just choke up with emotion. Yes. Which kind of indicates to me that the, what I call quote, the characters in the book, is in the book. Yes. Are, how do I say, more than fictional? We understand, as we have said, every form of consciousness is actually autonomous on some level. However, the idea of writing, the process itself, the experience itself, is also cathartic for the writer. It's part of your own therapy. To bring out the aspects of your own consciousness that are represented by the characters and to interpret those aspects of your consciousness within the greater being that you are. So that you can start being more holistic. Yes? Yes. So of course it's going to process. And when you get choked up and shed tears that are those kinds of tears and you're letting go of ideas that don't work for you anymore, letting go of beliefs and definitions that are out of alignment with your true self, the tears literally contain the chemical constituents of those beliefs and you're washing them out of your body. Great. Literally. So those are what you call tears of joy. Yes? Yeah, very much. Does that help you? Tremendously. Then I will say to you right on. And I'll say to you, all right. And I'll say to you, all right. Thank you. Thank you. Step close.
