It’s not the action, it’s the reaction

Posted on by philipdodson

Action is good.

Reaction is not.

When we take action, we feel good.

When we react, we feel bad, we become the reaction, which is not the real us, it is just our mind and emotions.

Action happens now, the moment that we are alive and requires us to be present. It leads to change, it leads to an outcome, it makes a difference.

Reaction is based on the past and on future fears, things that do not exist. It leads to anger, frustration, argument, hate and negativity.

Let go, accept what is, do not become the reaction, peacefully and calmly take action.

Beliefs are a choice.

We can and will believe anything if we want to.

If we believe we can, we can and of course the opposite, if we think we can’t, well we can’t.

So, why would we believe we can’t do something? Seems a strange choice.

Simple answer, it is all in our minds and the regular thought patterns that we energise and take as the truth. We build up year upon year all these so-called ‘truths’ about our ability to do something or not, based on little other than our mind created thoughts, perhaps what others say and because perhaps once we didn’t succeed.

What happened before is not the guide to what will happen now, unless you choose to believe it.

Let go of the need to think before we do something or before we form beliefs and see what happens.

Beliefs are a choice.
