Are You Distracted?

So many people come to me and seek help as they experience different kinds and levels of distraction. Trying to reach their goal or doing what's good for themselves can be hard. 

These distractions come as guilt, worry, sadness, resentment, anxiety, destination addiction, fear, greed, anger, and shame. As restricting energies, when left to persist, they can get in the way of your living, attaining your vision, and your connection to other human beings. 

Watch Someone Gets Me ▶️Are You Distracted? with Dianne A. Allen.

Key points covered in this episode: 

🔲 Guilt

When we feel guilt, that means we broke our own rule. Now our opportunity is to say, is that rule really still applicable to my life? Do I need to change the rule, or do I need to change my behavior? Our culture reinforces that if we feel guilty, we can beat ourselves up. We can go down this rabbit hole of everything's not good. It distracts us from who we are. It distracts us from our vision. It distracts us from our purpose. So when we feel guilty, it means we either shift to the role or shift our behavior and move on from there. 

🔲 Worry

My definition of "worry" is praying for something to go wrong. We think about things in the future when we're not even there yet and distract ourselves from our current behavior, our current action, and our current way. We are distracted from our goals, purpose, and being by constantly worrying. We can end up missing days or weeks or even years or decades, living in the future and worrying about something that never comes to pass. 

🔲 Sadness

It's easy to feel sadness as an intuitive and an empath, picking on other people's unhappiness. When you let the sadness take over, you're distracted from your purpose and what you're meant to do.

🔲 Resentment

Resentment means to feel something over and over again. Kids can get in a little scuffle in the playground, but pretty soon, they're playing again, while adults tend to refuel the same thing repeatedly. You can resent the government, the crisis, your former spouse, and everybody else, and when you get caught in those cycles, things don't work out because you get distracted.

🔲 Anxiety

Feelings of panic, doom, or danger are how we define anxiety. You manage it when you first breathe like air is your friend and get outside in nature. Anxiety can be healed. When you stop letting this control you and stop allowing it to run untethered through your system, you will find yourself coming back to your purpose, your vision, and your inner calling. 

🔲 Destination Addiction

If you're always focused on the outcome and not paying attention to the journey - you're not enjoying life. Always trying to get to the finish line, and then the next finish line steals joy.

🔲 Fear

False Evidence Appearing Real. We teach many strategies to stop living in fear, which can be easier said than done. Let go of control and trust the outcome. Be in the flow, honor your feelings, and not let it control you at the same time. 

🔲 Greed

Greed can cause you lots of trouble when it possesses you more and more.

🔲 Anger

Screaming, yelling, and road rage are prevalent. Anger will do it every time. Anger is a secondary feeling. It never comes all by itself. It always comes from pain and not knowing "I'm disconnected from myself." People get angry, and they take it out on other people. It can be the byproduct of blame and frustration.

🔲 Shame

Shame means "I am a mistake," and somehow, I believe I shouldn't be sucking air. Guilt and shame can go at the same time in a person, but they're not always tied. 

Which emotions, beliefs, and energies do you hold on to? 

When we let these distractions take hold of our lives, we may reflect on them and regret them. We miss opportunities because we hold back when we can connect and do something extraordinary. There are so many consequences, like self-doubt, that prevent us from being who we are. We must check in with ourselves frequently throughout the day and see how things in the mind, body, and spirit need to be taken back in alignment. It's time to stop allowing them to control you, which removes you from your true purpose.
