Are you Reaping Generously?
I had a great conversation with a client recently about the phrase “fake it till you make it.” We kind of had a disagreement on this one, more because she misunderstood my stance on it. I believe that you reap what you sow and sowing generously brings generous reaping. Sounds awesome right?
But then there are feelings involved. Don’t you reap from sowing those as well? We can’t lie to ourselves about how we feel, so how do we go about giving, when we are being negative about it? Wouldn’t that reap more negative into our lives?
Giving in Love
I believe if you give, you need to give with a good feeling in your heart, and at the very least without feeling resentment. She felt that if you would just start giving, even with resentment, it would propel you into that good feeling afterward. Now, this may be the case sometimes, but I choose to work this from a different angle.
With The Healing Codes, we are trying to decrease stress, definitely not increase it. By forcing yourself to do something that doesn’t feel right or good, increases your stress level. Choosing to change your feelings to a loving giving attitude would then decrease your stress. So the better choice for you would be to ask yourself some simple questions about what you want your end feelings to be.
Some great questions to ask are…
- What is it that I want to feel from doing this? Is it to be accepted or liked? Maybe it would make me look good to others? Maybe it would fill me with something that I feel I’m missing.
- If I got this reaction of say, looking good to others, how would I feel if I looked good to others? Would I feel loved or needed?
- This question leads to the next question when in my life did I feel unloved, unwanted or unneeded?
Those memories and emotions are the ones that would be best worked on with The Healing Codes. After clearing the negative feelings you then feel the emotion you where missing before, which is being loved. Of course, when you feel this way, you want to spread that wealth of love and you are in a much more giving mood.
Don’t Fake it till you make it
Giving with resentment or because you feel like you have to, isn’t a good feeling and will bring you back like in return. It also will add stress, which again is NOT what we are looking for.
Remember that what you give is what you get back. But also remember to give with love.
Actually, change your feelings instead of playing the “fake it till you make it”. The return on your investment will pay back 1000 times better.
