Never Say ‘Cannot’ (Daily Chill)

 

Chillout: As soon as you say I cannot, then everything arises in your mind to stop you. As soon as you say I can, everything becomes achievable.

ACCEPTANCE OF FUTILITY IS NOT AN OPTION.

Oh YES YOU CAN. May take time and more thought than currently invested, may need adjustment as you go along (from bad, to good, to better, to best) but ON YES YOU CAN.

"as long as you don't confuse it with expecting actual, material results."

Exactly, and that's been the problem all along, CONFUSION, confusion between what's all in the mind and what's REAL. And THAT got started with religious cults, made up fairy gods, and FAITH healing. You know.....if you have enough FAITH, you can move a mountain.....right. The Catholic Church made up some very "unnatural" rules like celibacy
and look where that went. It's ok to "want" to do something but if it's ridiculous and humanly impossible, then it's a good idea to abandon stupidity and seek out a REAL way to achieve it. People have wasted thousands of years clinging to idiotic ideas that only exist in the mind with no possibility of implementation. That's retarded.

I agree - soooooo true. I'm sure we've all done it. And the freedom we feel when we say, sure I can do that and start the beginning of our journey there. Very cool. Always mind over matter. We are our own enemy.
