Clearing The Land

Before we can start building a structure, we must first clear the land. Leveling out the land to make sure our new construction is laid on an even and solid foundation. Yesterday I wrote about setting a foundation or baseline, but before we establish a foundation, we’ve got to clear the land. If you’ve been beaten down a time or two in life, you may experience some negative self talk. You may hear yourself saying things and reinforcing some negative behaviors and energies which will not be conducive to your new structure. In fact, without the removal of these negative items, without a clearing process, most, if not all of your efforts will be for nought.

I’ve had to do this several times and I’ve learned some interesting things about myself as I’ve completed this process. I’m in the mist of doing it again and I’m going to share the process for a couple of reasons. One for myself to make sure I’m doing it correctly. Secondly, to pass along what’s worked for me so you don’t have to waste time through trial and error. And third for confirmation. It’s been too long since I’ve done this and I tend to think it may not work today. I have a teflon brain when it comes to certain things. Unfortunately, success traits or the clearing of these negative vibes and traits is one of those things that seem to not stick.

I’ll go more in depth at a later time or in a course or webinar, but for the moment, here’s what’s worked and what I’ll do again:

Feel good music - I’ve create several playlists of songs which put me in the right state of mind. When writing, when struggling, when depressed, playing any particular playlists immediately changes my state and gets me back on track.

Support Group - those people, we all have them, that are upbeat, positive, and typically put a smile on our face. I have several of them and we speak at least twice a month. A couple of them I speak with at least once a week. They are vital.

Solfeggio Tunes - Do a quick search and find out what each of the nine are and how they function. I listen to mostly 741 or 528 mhz. Depending on where you are in the process of building, you may start at 417 or 174 or even 396 mhz.

A list like to start the day. I discovered more than 15 years ago, it’s impossible for me to remain depressed when I start my day listing items for which I am grateful. It’s one of the first tools I used to combat my depression and all these years later, it’s still quite effective.

A morning walk. While in the Financial Services industry, my days started around 4:30 in the morning. I’d go for a walk, either through my neighborhood or I’d ride a stationary bike, while reading white papers. It’s one things to eliminate the negativity. Filling my mind with substantive information seemed to work at the time.

Those are a few and as I continue my journey, I’ll happily share more.

Today, Wednesday, September 6, 2023, I am grateful that:

My sleeping schedule has normalized. It only took a day so I’m happy. The day trip was not my normal schedule on Monday. I’m happy to have gone and glad to be back as well.

I was able to grab a massage earlier. An hour respite is all it took. Some days are filled with str
