I don’t think there is a human left on the planet that hasn’t been indirectly affected by the COVID-19 As companies shift to; work from home, reduced hours, and lay-offs begin, the financial impact on our pocket books may be scarier than the virus itself and being home with a bug for a few weeks. I anticipate that some companies will go bankrupt. While we have no control over external events, we do have control over our actions and more importantly our thoughts. I urge you all to be extra careful of your thoughts during this time and to monitor them closely, upgrading them often.
Last week I myself was terminated from a part-time contract which allowed for termination “without cause” at any time. I know not why and reasons are unimportant as they would only feed limiting beliefs. As I tapped my way through the aspects including some echoes from years before, I found that I could dwell on the loss or I can focus on the new opportunities emerging. Wednesday another door that I was pursuing closed: my coach called it ‘divine intervention’ as it wasn’t aligned with who I am becoming.
As our pocket books or bank balances and portfolio’s are impacted, remember that life is about more than money. We are more than our bank accounts. Do not lower yourself by looking only at the financial aspect. There are new opportunities emerging as a result of the various changes that we are undergoing.
Celebrate and relish the good. Consider the cancelled meeting a gift of time. Look for positive aspects. Noticing signs of spring. Some items(including stocks) have been discounted and thus are more affordable. I acquired a new walking partner while out walking my neighbourhood. The ease of driving to the downtown core this morning was phenomenal. Time alone means I’m less contaminated by mainstream society. Life remains good in many ways.
Align with a future that is; stronger, happier, more prosperous, more full-filling, more satisfying. There is an opportunity here as we are pressed by trying times to uncover the thoughts that hold us back and to shed that next layer of misperceptions and limiting beliefs. On the other side of this chaos is a stronger you waiting to emerge.
Reach out to your favourite practitioner to work through any area where you are stuck if need be.
