I asked the MMS community to share your thoughts on the Power Word which is Freedom. This is what I asked you to consider:
The Dictionary Definition:
• The power to determine action without restraint
• Exemption from external control, interference, regulation, etc.
• To not be in confinement or under physical restraint
The Community Definition:
• To be driven by purpose
• Having the ability to do and act as desired
• When you are guided by your spirit without the need for permission
My View:
Freedom is an expression in our life which begins as an experience in the mind.
I absolutely and wholeheartedly believe that the freedom that is present (or absent) starts in the core of our minds. Our beliefs, our interpretations, our interactions and ultimately our activities and experiences take root within. We can wait for our government, employers, leaders, or family to grant us our freedom or we can make a decision to BE free.
More often than not, our thoughts are habitual. That does not mean that they are necessarily right or guiding us to live fully and freely. In fact, our thoughts can “imprison” us if we are not aware of their power. True freedom is the result of this critical knowledge. We can transform our way of thinking — and when we do so, this is freedom in its most potent form.
We have the freedom to decide what we do with the information that we encounter, how we interpret our life experiences, how we chart our future, modify our minds, or make decisions.
“Freedom is not something that anybody can be given; Freedom is something that people take and people are as free as they want to be.”
~James Arthur Baldwin
It is all a choice. Complex and challenging but in choice we find freedom. With freedom we can breathe, express, grow, and feel a deep sense of “life wealth” (i.e. enriched experiences). I know you are saying. “Great. My fault again.” My goal is not to blame or criticize you but to let you know that you have options. We all do.
Quite often what is embedded in the mind has been a culmination of external factors and experiences that have established themselves as reality. It has become your truth and without realizing it, you structure your life based on messages and a belief system that restricts the vast range of possibilities.
Freedom to BE = Freedom to BUILD
When we are free, we have come to know our true strengths and gifts and commit to optimize and share them fully. If not, then the result is resounding misalignment. When we approach our multifaceted lives with acceptance and congruency, everything flows much more smoothly.
Giving yourself permission to BE sets the groundwork for you to BUILD magnificently in all areas of your life.
Important Question: What’s Holding You Back?
I know that you have the potential within you so take the chance of a lifetime and go for it (whatever “it” is). Reach for your freedom. You just might go further than you expected.
