Detaching from the Outcomes

I have pondered for the last few days….what is it with us human beings, that we monger fear in ourselves? Why are we so insecure that we need validation for everything and anything we do or represent?

Fear. The old enemy of the Self, which is a manifestation of self-doubt, expectation of outcomes and just plain anticipatory behavior. Fostering this fear in the Self, just gives it more power. The more you feed it, the more it insists on staying in your energy field. And boy oh boy, it becomes bigger and bigger, until you can think of nothing else but just that fear. Say hello to the unconscious state of being....

Fear is actually quite a sophisticated defense mechanism. Classed as a level 4 defense mechanism, which means that it is practiced by emotionally healthy adults, it is termed as anticipation – or planning for our future discomfort. Yip, we continue to feed our anticipation of outcomes, which breeds insecurity which breeds fear. We forget the subtle interplay of other factors, which we cannot account for.

Take heed of the words of Kant, the eminent philosopher, “we must also consider the conditions under which what ought to happen frequently does not”. In modern psychology, we so often to not recognize that other factors determine our behaviour, and those of the individuals that shares our personal environment. We cannot account for that which drives their decisions and behaviour patterns. Things go wrong. Period.

If it is a business transaction, a personal transaction, or emotional transaction, it matters not, we cannot control the outcomes. What we need to remember though, is that at it’s core, every transaction made always has good intentions, and that transactions manifest. How they manifest, cannot be controlled by the individual. It is a game with many players, and as such, the transaction is only a probability.

Detaching from the outcomes, is a very empowering act. It removes us from expectations, which removes us from insecurity, and therefore removes us from fear.

Fear is simply False Evidence Appearing Real. And we create it ourselves. If you have created a transaction, for that is an intent, or need, with integrity as to the expected outcome, then simply detach. For your Higher Self will always know what is going to be appropriate for you, what is going to foster your purpose, and what it is required in your life path to cause growth, which is the ultimate purpose for your current physical expression.

Just TRUST.
