When numbers said "go" but body said "no"
I used to spend 100$ in my bank account for a DJ controller, which left me with only 10$ in my bank account. But what I learned from listening to my body this was an excellent decision.
My Background
I'm a philosophy major graduate from a renown university in Thailand. After graduation, I worked as a 9-5 employee for 1 years, and then jumped directly into becoming a business owner. Read carefully, this is a VERY BIG STEP: when you become a business owner, you don't know how much you would make each week. This looks like a risk, a VERY HUGE RISK. But I found comfort in not knowing about the future with this method: listening to our body.
Did it happen to you before that the numbers said "go" but the body said "no"? When you saw a 50% discounted bag and thought it was an irresistible deal? Yeah, I think absolutely everyone had this experience before: when you think with logic, purchasing the bag should be a right decision. But, why do you feel uncomfortable in your body? Why was there a nagging feeling like you were doing something wrong? This is how the body communicates with us about abundance: the right way is 'going with the flow': doing things your body feel comfortable with, even if your logic says no.
Going with the Flow?
In Taoism, an ancient philosophy rooted in China, there was a belief that we can have a good life by not resisting anything. Think like this: you are the water that flows through big and small rocks, and when you meet an obstacle, you just bend through with harmony. This way, we can avoid making a bad decision in life. Most of the time, we make a bad decision because we trust the head and not the heart. And the voice from the heart roots inside our body. If today you think you need a DJ controller and your body feel comfortable, go ahead!, even if it will leave you with 1$ in the account!
My experience:
After I purchased the DJ controller and played it with gratitude, in that week, there were over 200$ offers coming to my company, which was 2 TIMES of the amount of the DJ controller! I felt happier from making music and in that way, I attract more money.
Comfortable and Happy: The Important Emotions
In many books about abundant, there are sayings that 'The more happy you are, the more you receive'. This resonates with me greatly. Yes! The more happy I am, the more money I made. Thank you, universe. I really deserve all the abundance and resources! And this is possible because I listen to my body.
