Freedom

“Choice is freedom. Habit is prison.” Maria Mar
Extended Tip:
“Make sure that you are responding from Free-choice and not from Habit-choice. The later is simply your Primary Response, a learned behavior.

But it sets you free, as you can choose the response that is congruent with your brilliance and in so doing, you become your Sacred Self, an expression of Divinity.” Maria Mar

If you are judging yourself, you are probably repeating a story you learned as a child. It’s just a label. It’s not who you are. It does not help. Judgment is usually accompanied by more bullies: guilt, blame and shame. Guilt gags you and prevents you from speaking your truth from the heart, so that you can forgive and be forgiven if it is truly necessary. Blame is a blindfold because it distracts you from seeing the complexity of a situation, focusing your attention in whomever you decide to blame. Shame is a shackle because it binds you to it, acting as a glue that won’t let go. You are too ashamed […]
