Lesson 202: Say Yes To Now
“Always say ‘yes’ to the present moment. What could be more futile, more insane, than to create inner resistance to what already is? What could be more insane than to oppose life itself, which is now and always now? Surrender to what is. Say ‘yes’ to life — and see how life suddenly starts working for you rather than against you.”
Today is all about being present and just saying yes. What is something that you can say yes to in this present moment without any hesitation? Just do it!
On my Saturday, I got asked to do tarot readings on a day that I don’t usually. I said “I’ll just go with it and go with the flow”. I just said yes more so for the opportunity and didn’t hesitate. I think it helps alleviate the other readers who would be busy that day so it’s a chance to increase my skill and extend my readings out on a busier day. I am trying to see the opportunity in situations when I say yes to things. There is always a chance to learn within reason.
This lesson definitely reminds me of that Jim Carrey movie “Yes Man” because when he said yes to doing everything, it opened him up to new experiences and possibilities. I think when we live in the now, we gain so much. It’s when our monkey mind steers us with doubt and fear, that causes us to question whether it’s a good idea to do the task or not. If we say yes without a moment to think, we are allowing ourselves to be open to many new opportunities. This is what I’m trying to live by. If I don’t like what I just attempted, then I won’t do it again – plain and simple. Got to give it a go before you dismiss it right?
