What Are You Waiting For, Anyway?

One of the most problematic and effective sabotage techniques employed by the ego is to keep you in a state of waiting.

Waiting for a better time, a better circumstance, a better bank account balance, a better program, a better person.

The fact is, time is an illusion, because all you actually have is NOW. Your life is just a series of nows and the idea that there is a better “now” is sort of ridiculous, if you really think about it!

Waiting is an actual energetic state: its foundation is stagnation or inertia. While you may not experience a deep pain right now in the Waiting state that compels you to take action, you won’t be able to attract much, because you’re stuck in a lack of movement. In the end, you’ll experience the pain of regret … and boy can that hurt.

A Waiting state comes in many forms. Some of the most common ones are:

An inability to get started
Being caught in indecision;
Ambivalence;
Apathy;
Procrastination;
Boredom;
Or self-talk like, “I don’t know … it just doesn’t seem good enough/cheap enough/pretty enough/perfect enough/nice enough … ENOUGH in general … so I guess I’ll keep looking for something else.”
Or … “Someday, I really want to do that.” The thing is, someday never comes, because there is no such thing as “someday.” There are just more nows.

Rarely does the ego let it be that obvious, though. Instead, the will keep you in a state of hesitation until an opportunity has passed. Or it will convince you that a better situation is just around the corner. Or it will have you put off what you desire most until you finally give up, calling yourself a loser for procrastinating for so long.

Meanwhile, you get NOWHERE year after year.

Waiting for a better “now” is an actual choice, though: it’s a “no”; but because it’s all handled behind the scenes in your mind — passively — it gives your ego a quiet way to keep you stuck … and this can go on for years!

There is really only one time when it’s in your best interest to wait … when you are connected with Source and you’re not getting a clear message on what to do next or Source is telling you to wait. But even then, you simply take action on something else in the mean time.

Moving out of a waiting state requires just one thing: action!
