Daily Mystic Messages - The Employee
Imagine that you were sitting in a movie theatre watching one of your favorite films and you are so entranced with what's happening on the screen, that you don't even notice what's going on around you.
Now, while you're watching, it triggers a memory and maybe you start thinking about work or the endless to-do list, or maybe you're just really focused on one of the details of the films or one of the nuances of it. You then disappear inside your own thoughts and forget entirely about the movie.
This is something that we do where we get absorbed with the world or the screen in front of us, or we get completely absorbed with the screen inside of us, the thoughts, the emotions and the things that are going on inside of us.
Now imagine now is that you're sitting there in that same movie theatre and in walks an employee, they walk quietly into the side and they look at the scene, they see something interesting. They see the screen that you're watching and they see the projector coming out of it; out of your own mind. But they're in the place of the objective observer so they can see the projector inside of you and they can see the screen of the world or the screen of the movie that's happening.
That place of the employee, that objective observer, that is where you want to be.
What happens when you go there is you wake up to what is actually going on. It's not the story in our head and it's not the results or the things and the circumstances that we see in the world, it is a higher level of awareness that says "I'm not either of those things yet I can observe them in action."
When it comes to self-love, this is an incredibly powerful exercise because it takes us out of the stories that we tell around ourselves. It takes us out of the things that are happening in the circumstances in our world that draw us into different stories, into different conversations, in a way from that true essence of ourselves. And it puts us in the place of the objective observer, who can see the story playing out, see a higher level of reality and that is a space that I invite you into today.
So play around with that often throughout the day...
Every time you catch yourself drifting into one screen or the other, come back to that place of the observer, the employee who just walks in and sees what's unfolding.
