Transcending the Saboteur

9/20/2017

Sometimes that inner voice that tells you it can’t happen, it won’t happen, you just don’t see how it’s possible can thwart your momentum if listened to. You know which voice it is. The voice of the saboteur. This voice cannot only sound within you but it can also come from outside of you, from those around you.

You may find it easy to transcend your own inner chatter recognizing that it is your own false limits and boundaries that you are encountering. You know it is an interior occurrence so you may easily find ways to shift and adjust until you’ve moved through and past the resonance of this inner chatter. You know what your own inner voice says. You know the pattern of thoughts that arise and their quality when they have this tone of limitation to them. You know and have worked out how to recognize, awaken to, and shift out of this inner saboteur. What happens when the voice coming to you though is someone else’s? How do you transcend the saboteur when it's coming through someone else?

When you share your vision, your current efforts, your goals, someone can show up as the voice of that inner saboteur and tell you that it’s just not possible, it’s not going to work, it's never worked before, it's been such a long standing problem, and it’s a needle in a haystack problem and so on. They freely, openly, and willingly rain on your parade. They get other people on-board in their dance of dream-killing. They offer their expertise maybe in the guise of helpfulness and guidance, or in the form of the facts and figures of the current reality, or in a more transparent form of pure sabotage.

You’re always on call for being your own gatekeeper – keeping out any and all input that’s only serving to diminish your momentum. This is how you transcend the voice of the saboteur, yours and theirs. In the same way you transcend your inner chatter, you have to focus on transcending any outer chatter whether that chatter is from a single individual or a group of individuals. It doesn’t mean you tell this other individual or groups of individuals to shut-up or go on a rampage of rage for their apparent efforts to deflate your expansion. It means you learn to see through all of the input coming your way – learn to filter for the input and information that adds to your energy rather than destabilizes or diminishes your energy.

Firm up your energetic boundaries, firm up your emotional boundaries, and begin to consciously and continuously only resonate with that which empowers you, propels you, energizes you. "This input has no validity for me" you'll say to yourself when that kind of energy and information is directed your way. "This is a reflection of his/her own limitation and limiting narrative" you'll say to yourself. You’re not usually privy to the subconscious agenda’s of anyone around you. You’re only privy to the vision and intention you have set forth before yourself for the highest good of all concerned. Not only do you have to learn to be discerning of your own patterns of thinking, you have to learn to be discerning of what patterns of thinking from others you make yourself open to. Influence goes both ways – you have influence in whatever space you find yourself in, in turn, the players in the spaces you’re sharing also have the potential to influence your vision, your focus, your path, but only if you allow them to.

The only expert there is in your reality is your own heart-intelligence. If you feel the reality of an outcome, if you feel the possibility, if you’re working on or toward something that has engaged both your heart and mind, then you are already plugged into the most powerful expert there is. It is when you follow this inner pull regardless of what the world around you says or what your own mind chatter says, that whatever resource is needed to make your inner image actualize into a lived reality appears through synchronicity and apparent coincidence. You have to learn to read your reality and the threads that begin to take shape when you set on any path, and you have to learn to tune out anything and anyone that distracts you from that noticing.

People can only inspire you within the bounds of their own limitations. You can never forget the subconscious and sometimes conscious agenda driving the nay-sayers around you. Trusting the voice of impossibility will always mean that you lose steam, you leak energy, and you cease moving forward. Listening to the insecurity motivated voice of someone else and attuning and aligning yourself with that voice means you move yourself out of alignment with your desired outcome. Ask yourself "what does my heart say here" day in and day out. Listen to your own heart-intelligence, make it the primary voice you go to day in and day out, and let nothing else within or without drown out that higher dimensional guiding presence that is always here for you to tap into.
