FREEDOM

FREEDOM

One aspect of life most people actually repel is freedom, it's a rare commodity and one this project seeks to promote.

Freedom is relative to how much time you actually spend in service to others and how much you spend purely on your needs (and no that's not selfish, as the needs I'm talking about are your growth and power as a fulfilled person, which will ultimately help others in a very real way). Let's take work for the first port of call. We all have to make a living, but there is a vast difference between doing something you enjoy, and doing something just for the money. If you find a role you get paid well for that you enjoy every minute, then you are indeed blessed. But then we have to look at who you are working for, who's tune do you dance to, who are you making richer whilst you accept their gratitude for a life spent serving their wants. If service is what you like, you won't have a problem working for someone else, but you will be highly unlikely to become wealthy on someone else's payroll.

Freedom is not working the week to get to the evenings and the weekends. Freedom is not being at work at a certain time, with an hour for lunch, and looking forward to knock off time, it's not waiting for the days to pass for your holiday time. It's security of a sort, but it's a long way from freedom. 

Why is work so regimented in the main? Well most people have little commercial understanding or responsibility with out the hierarchy of a boss with a whip to report to. You might love your work, but if you've got to please a boss then you are not free however high up the corporate ladder you climb. Your future will always be in the hands of someone else, who (or they) at some point in the future will raise the cutting back sword above your head, and lob your career away from beneath your feet. The days of long service and gratitude are long gone, so building your castle around someone else's good graces is a recipe for an uncomfortable life changing experience one day, if you loose the role you've put heart and soul into for years.

Institutionalisation is a slow drawn out invasion of your right to be free. Very soon you will be identifying yourself with a desk, a chair....your office, your door, your window if you are lucky, my car parking space, my road to work... It all smacks of possession, and whilst taking possession of things is reassuring, not when they are actually someone else's to take away. Becoming a symbiotic, biomechanical being, merging with a desk and a chair five days a week is not healthy for the soul, and whilst a job gives security of a sort, it's certainly not freedom.

Long serving convicts can fear being released into the world and some will do anything to stay inside, their life is the secure world they have come to know, and anything outside of the confines of a regimented lifestyle, is a scary place to think about. Sound familiar, for 95 % of the working population, institutionalised security working for someone else is where it begins and ends. 

So whats this scary thing called freedom all about? Well, it's having the choice what time to get up for a start. Weekends become irrelevant as you can do what you want when you want. The difference between work and play now no longer has a meaning as they become one, as every moment is yours to enjoy and create what you like doing in your time, to your tune, to your greater healthier good.

But what stops so many people choosing a healthier way of living? It's programming, the absence of seeing another choice, responsibility, belief and fear. The majority of people leave school or university and get a job, and by so doing enter into the institution of giving responsibility for their lives to a company, they then become the company, not the individual. Even if your thought was to get a little experience under your belt and then go your own way, very soon you will have lost your confidence to make it on your own, as subservience only goes one way, and that's to absorb the individual into the mass to rely on the security of a monthly pay cheque.

Fear takes over the handling your own affairs and running your own business, fear of failure, not paying the bills, the unknown. It's not a fear without foundation, as in the UK a quarter of a million businesses incorporate each year, and a quarter of a million liquidate. With a figure of 9 out of ten business's going bust in the first 5 years, the prognosis for going it alone is not a great one.. Or is it? Is it really so difficult to find a way outside of the conventional tied to a job scenario, or tied to a loan to run your own small business? 

Well the answers is no, it isn't. Working within the confines of someone else's or your own business can be as bad as each other, as working for someone else deprives you of thinking expansively because you are told what to think in the company line, working for yourself means you sometimes don't have time to think at all, just worry. So where does this leave you with the law of attraction, or influencing the universe, let alone taking time out to influence your subconscious mind. Not very far might be the answer, but life becomes clearer and  more defined the more you open your mind to the power of influence and your subconscious mind, life becomes considerably easier straight away, even though at first you may still have routine, habit and conditioning governing your life.

There are alternative ways to face life other than subservience to a life of toil for others gain, and once you have mastered the power of influence, and connected it to the creativity of your subconscious mind, you will start to live the life you were meant to, not the one one you were programmed to put up with. You live life through choice, not through necessity. Your perspective changes so what was just a job now becomes a career, or a door to a business opportunity you'd never seen. When you open your mind to creative opportunity, it only takes a little shift of how you view your world to open a whole new world that can lead to the success you want.

Freedom exists in your state of mind, not your physical circumstances. It is your approach to these circumstances that will ultimately either make you remain subservient or start to see life as a host of opportunity just waiting for you to pick up the reins of success, idealise your life, visualise what you want it to be, and materialise your desires.

Remember, if you learn the power of influence then you have complete control over your own state and the states of others. If you connect the power of influence with your subconscious mind you will become the master of your destiny... And this is where freedom and enjoying life truly begins.

Remain CONSISTENT  with your goals
Remain CONFIDENT  in your own purpose and power
Remember to open opportunity through expanding your CONTACTS
