I think I’m finally getting it…
When you follow the call of your soul to the next level, it has to be about more than the direct result.
It has to be about more than the A + B = C “solution” and instead about the fact that you’re doing the thing you feel called to do simply because you feel called to do it.
You see, when it’s about just the result of your actions, you risk sliding up and down the slippery slope of ego. The ego that wants certainty and evidence and all the things in perfect working order in order to feel the feelings that come from having said outcome.
True up-levels…true soul-called actions and desires rise above the result.
The result then is actually just icing on top of an already decedent cake-aka the experience of doing the thing. True, up-levels are about the feeling of completion & certainty that comes from doing the thing.
When it’s more about the result- we tend to live a life in a constant state of cause and effect.
–>I’m going to DO this thing because I want to GET that thing.
–>I’m going to TAKE this action because I want to experience this specific result.
–>I’m going to say YES to this because I expect a very specific result from it.
But what if you just do it because it’s the right thing to do in that moment?
What if ultimately we aren’t doing it for the cookies, accolades, likes or the comments?
What if we are just doing it because it’s what we have been called to do, led to say or the way we’ve been guided to act?
When you’re divinely guided and inspired to act, write, create or do the things…do it because you’re called, not solely for the result that it will bring.
It’s not about that.
It’s never really been about that.
Yes, there is always a reason you’re called to do the thing, but it’s not always about the direct tangible result of your action.
This magical journey called life doesn’t exist in a straight line with logical check-points.
It’s often a topsy-turvy road of experiences, expansion, and new levels that teach us powerful lessons. In fact, the magic lies in the most illogical, yet still soul-called experiences and actions.
You see, sometimes, you are called to speak your truth so it touches the life of a perfect stranger…and you never know it.
Often, you are called to act in a specific way that creates a chain of seemingly unrelated events & it impacts more people than you ever thought possible.
And yes, there are times when you do the thing you feel called to do and there is a direct link to the result you wish to create, but…
Your action has to be about MORE than just the result.
What we are talking about is really more of a calling. A magnetic way of being and responding and acting because your soul is saying- do this thing. And I promise when you feel it, you just know it.
When you get into the practice of rising above the result, you get into a constant flow of feeling the nudge & doing the thing without questioning if it is “worth” it and whether it’s going to get you the results you want.
Feel the nudge, do the thing. That’s it.
So what does that look like in real life?
–>Write the article because you’re called to write it..then let it fly
–>Speak your truth because you’re called to and it’s the right thing to do.
–>Take the leap because you’re called to and trust the next thing will come.
–>Book the appointment, reach out for help, ask the question, make the move because you feel called to and then…repeat.
And don’t let yourself get caught up in the reasons, results, or why of it all.
Just trust that there is something bigger at play and you are in a way a channel for that thing to come through.
Ultimately that’s what it’s all about.
The truth is, we are all connected and while it may not always make sense as to why we feel the strong pull to do something and it seemingly result in “nothing” we must trust that there’s always a bigger purpose for it.
And speaking from experience it makes for a much more enjoyable ride.
So, I say all of that to say…do the thing you feel called to do simply because you feel called and watch the magic that unfolds from consistently doing that.
And speaking of feeling called…
