Self Life Coaching: Prayers, Hopes and Dreams

...When the energy is "log jammed" and out of balance, the door is then open for the unbalanced ego, to enter which causes inevitable chaos! It is at this point we must define ego for the purpose of the conversation of this manual. So, back to the Webster's Dictionary!

According to the Webster's Dictionary Ego is defined as: the "I" or self of any person; a thinking, feeling and conscious being, able to distinguish itself from other selves. It further states, self esteem or self image; the enduring and conscious element that knows experience. This definition represents the positive, constructive side of ego. It expresses itself in healthy free thinking individuals. The Unbalanced Ego, on the other hand, exists and expresses itself in tyranny. What is tyranny, you may ask? Let's go back to the Webster's Dictionary!

Tyranny, according to Webster's Dictionary, is arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power; despotic abuse of authority. Despotic, according to Webster's Dictionary is a King or other ruler with absolute, unlimited power and rules by oppression.

Take just a moment and reflect upon the unbalanced expression of ego that occurs in the leaders around you as well as in the world. Reflect upon that unbalanced expression's effect upon yourself, others and the world. And, then, contemplate how that same unbalance of power passively aggressively expresses itself in the "victims" and "entitlement mentality" beings in the world and in your world.

Now, universal law states that the outer is a reflection of the inner. If you begin today to step into your true power, the outer world will catch up to you and begin to reflect you and your source! Determine right now to rid yourself and your world of the tyranny of the unbalanced ego! Keep company with the Self and the balanced ego!

The universe in all of its complicated and simple glory does provide situations and opportunity that with proper alignment, right thinking and right action can lead to wonderful things in one's life very rapidly and happily! It is our responsibility to pay attention! And, the universe does provide acknowledgement of you being in balance with it. An example here would be to think how you feel when you have a sense of accomplishment in something. You feel "on top of the world"!
