And that actually goes into my next question, which is about obsessions and obsessive thoughts. Like if I choose, okay, I don't want to think about that and it comes back. Yes, well, that's because you're pushing it away. Anything you resist will always bounce back because there's nowhere to push anything away to. There is no outside. There is only you. What about if the thought is telling me to do something that I don't. If you don't want to do it, don't do it. Do you not have the ability to say no thank you? Yes, I do. Do you not have the ability to say, I don't prefer that, I prefer something else? Yes, I do. Then so what? If you keep choosing what you prefer over what you don't, no matter how many times it's offered to you, it will eventually fade away. Because you will have changed your paradigm.
You will have changed your vibration. But don't try to resist. Let it in. So what? It's telling you over and over again, do something you don't prefer to do. You don't have to do it. The power is with you. The power to choose. We already told you this is one of the nine powers. Choose. It doesn't matter what you perceive. Because the more you expand your consciousness, the more you will perceive the negative as well as the positive. Because the negative and the positive exists throughout all of creation. So expanding your consciousness doesn't mean you become less aware of the negative. It begins you become more aware of it. But you also become more capable of choosing what you prefer. Just because you're aware of the negative doesn't mean you need to choose it. But sometimes I'm afraid that if I say no, that maybe it's not something evil like, go here, and maybe that going here would have been better.
And I'm afraid maybe I should listen to it. You keep using the idea of comparison, which you have no business doing. That would have been better. This would have been better. Maybe I missed something. You miss nothing. Unless you spend time worrying that you're missing something. That's the paradox. If you stop worrying that you're missing something, if you stop worrying that something else would have been better, nothing would have been better. Do you understand the paradox? Stop spending time focusing on what you think you're missing and you won't miss a thing. Okay. Does that help? Yes, it does. Thank you.
