If we want to engage and participate from the abundant or expansive mindset, we shouldn’t in any way, shape or form feel inhibited to respond in the moment. Coming from the perspective of the traditional mindset, everything is very chunky and compartmentalized in order to try and bring understanding to everything it touches. Why is it not okay to be alright with not understanding something and then working from that perspective in a creative, fluid manner to bring knowledge to the very concept you’re trying so hard to understand? What happens when we let go of this need to constantly box stuff up in order to comprehend it?
What happens when instead, we remain aware of the present moment and respond to what arises accordingly? I’m not suggesting that you should go into your meeting unprepared. I am however suggesting that we don’t have control over everything that happens moment to moment. So why do we try so hard to break concepts up and limit the totality of what is available to us? Being aware and open from an expansive mindset point of view is a much more fluid and relevant way to respond to what’s going on around us.
The trick is being able to embody this expansive, less clingy, more fluid state of consciousness. The key is being able to rest in freedom, to always have a background of freedom from which to operate which allows the relative realm to evolve through creativity. Resting in freedom, you can then become responsive to whatever happens making your decisions more skillful, more masterful. Above this you can move in the direction where you place your attention. Intentionally placing your attention by moving in a particular direction gives you the meaning and purpose you may desire. All this without the need to push-back in order to achieve your goal.
