Let's get real
Alright, time to get real...
I have been doing network marketing for one month now.
When I write that, I get some movement in my abdomen.
I have come to a place in the last few days where I am questioning moving forward with this company, etc, etc, etc.
I recognize this for what it is: My Resistance.
My resistance is quite brilliant. It has conjured many very reasonable excuses for not moving forward.
One excuse, for example, is the ingredients in these products are sometimes not up to the standards that I have held in the past for products I use internally or topically. This seems like a very good excuse. A very good one, right? Is this in alignment with my beliefs? Do I agree with this? I have turned away other products for the exact same reasons in the past, and so on.
I laid down in a moment of exhaustion (from my brain circling, and also from just having done some pranayama that moved energy that I'm now wrestling) and put my hands together in prayer and asked my guides for the truth. What is true for me and what is the correct path?
The answer I got was these products have worked better for me than any I've ever taken.
Right. Right. Ok.
Now, I believe that if we (humans) feel better, we can do better, be better, make better choices, etc. And I really believe that if THIS were the predominant thing (feeling better), the world would be better. I know hugely unhealthy people who are militant about where their foods and supplements come from. It is the mental state of being militant that creates the lack of health actually. Your mindset will create more stress and inflammation in the body than a non-organic tomato.
Now, this is not actually what I popped on here to write. I popped on here to write about how brilliantly my brain works. And I was reflecting on other things in my life where I have come up against a wall and just turned away from them.
There's something about the moment when there's a pause or a question or resistance or a lull that stops me in my tracks and I derail from that trajectory. It's funny not-funny. And I feel all those moments from my past rising up in me as I'm staring down the tunnel of where I'm headed.
There have been a multitude of relationships I've left, jobs, homes, etc. So many things that I haven't truly committed to even though I had a good enough reason to enter into them in the first place.
Yes, I could stop. I could quite easily say that I have excellent reasons for choosing something else. And I could find a whole crew of people to bring to my side and agree with me and tell me I'm doing the right thing by quitting.
But when is enough enough? When is enough quitting enough? I became a distributor because these products work for me. For nine months they've worked for me. Now I'm trying to con myself because I'm getting uncomfortable. Well, guess what? I'm willing to be uncomfortable! I'm going for it.
