Thinking equals more thought

Posted on by philipdodson

The more we think about how to achieve something the less we achieve.

Doing is a result of conscious focus, awareness and allowing the joy of whatever you are doing to flow through you.

No longer seeing all that we are doing as just a means to an end brings total focus and quality to the moment that we are actually doing something, which is always now.

Otherwise, the mind is possessing us with the thought of the goal and doing becomes secondary, or the doing doesn’t even occur, as we are paralysed by the psychological fear of the goal and what we have to do and how we might succeed, or more commonly, fail.

Thinking equals more thought and conscious awareness and focus allow us to do, right now.

The circumstances

Being at peace comes with more ease alone on a mountaintop…it is a test when we are in the middle of another’s drama, or immersed with unconsciousness.

Yet peace isn’t about quiet in the exterior world it is about silence within and that comes from the gap between thoughts, the pure stillness of being.

We are more likely to experience that gap when we are focused on avoiding the distractions that awaken the mind and it’s constant thoughts.

Peace can come if we let others be and allow acceptance within of them. However, it is a choice as to whether to be trapped by our thought or not. So in fact, the circumstances of the exterior world cannot affect our inner peace unless we allow it..
