Hello and welcome back to Unleash Your Peace.
My name is Ellie Sohja.
I am your host.
I am a positive mindset coach,
A personal transformation expert,
And a deliberate creator.
And Unleash Your Peace is such a unique podcast because every single week we dive into a different aspect of the internal world through five episodes that are released Monday through Friday and the goal here is for us to go deeper and deeper into this internal world so that you can feel more and more connected to that inner being part of yourself,
That infinite potential part of you that holds all of the answers for you.
And in doing so,
You can release your unwanted pain,
You can find lasting internal peace,
And you can live your best life yet.
And that is the key here when you level up individually and you become your whole powerful,
Beautiful self where you are living from that authenticity,
From your passion.
You don't just incrementally improve the quality of your life,
You actually exponentially innovate every aspect of your experiences on this physical plane.
And when you do this,
You cannot help but to be a force for good,
For upliftment,
For joy,
For love,
For peace in your community,
In your family,
In the world.
And that is exactly my wish for you and for everyone on this planet.
I want all of us to achieve this level of peace and connectedness so that we can level up together and we can live joy-filled,
Expansive lives as a human race.
Now,
This week's topic is a really big one.
We're talking about duality and contrast of your life.
This is a huge topic because it is something that we deal with as human beings on a daily basis,
On an hourly basis.
It's the bane of our existence,
The way we understand and deal with duality and contrast in our lives really informs the quality of our lives as a whole.
So five episodes for this topic is really nothing.
We can talk about this topic for weeks and weeks,
But we are hitting some of the highlights here because I do want to keep this momentum of a new topic every single week going.
Now,
This week we have talked about how duality is necessary for our existence.
It is actually the reason we exist at all.
Without duality,
There is no existence.
You're not here without duality.
And contrast is necessary for our expansion because without contrast,
We don't know what we want.
We don't know what we don't want.
We don't have preferences.
We do not feel compelled to create and therefore we don't expand.
So duality is necessary for existence and contrast is necessary for our expansion.
But how is it that two people can have the same kind of contrast?
Two people,
For example,
Get laid off from the same job,
Same position,
Same situation,
And one person goes off and creates a business and becomes a multimillionaire while the other person has trouble finding a job for months and months on end,
Ends up on welfare,
Ends up having to downsize everything in their lives,
Is miserable and is unhappy.
Same exact situation,
Same skill level,
Same level of potential available to both of them.
But one person sees it as an opportunity and the other person uses the situation to create a story that reinforces a suffering.
And as long as you choose to suffer,
You're going to keep suffering.
Did you catch that?
Did you catch how I used the word choose to suffer?
And that goes back to our free will.
The reason we can have the same exact situation for 10 different people and have 10 different outcomes is the choice,
What the people are choosing to do,
Our freedom of choice.
And I am not exaggerating here.
Our greatest ability is truly our ability to choose because our choices are what determine what outcomes we receive.
But why do so many people wait until their backs are literally against the wall,
Until they have hit rock bottom to choose something else?
This really interesting thing that happens that when you are experiencing an extreme amount of contrast,
Something really kind of horrific,
Something that you could use for ages to validate your suffering and nobody would blame you for that.
People would accept it readily and say,
Oh yeah,
This person is suffering because,
Oh my gosh,
Did you hear what happened to them?
But when you choose differently in that situation,
When you reframe that extreme contrast as contrast and you remind yourself that this contrast is here for my benefit,
Not for my suffering and you look at that contrast through that lens,
So you reclaim your power of creation in this way,
Something really powerful happens.
In that moment,
If you take a second step,
There's nothing that can stand in your way in receiving what it is you want to receive.
Step two is you choose.
I don't like what is happening right now.
What would I rather have?
Most people don't ask themselves this very,
Very important question.
What would I rather have?
What would I rather feel?
What would I rather experience?
What would I rather create?
What do I want my manifested reality to be?
When you are in the river of change,
There's no better way to predict your future than to create it.
And that is a quote from Dr.
Joe Dispenza.
If you're not familiar with his work,
I really highly recommend you check out some of his books.
You will be fascinated and in love with the work that he is doing right now.
I'll give you that quote again.
When you're in the river of change,
The best way to predict the future is to create it.
So today I simply want to leave you with that,
With the power of our choice.
Hopefully you listened to yesterday's episode and you've been reframing the events in your life as contrast.
And today I want to challenge you to ask yourself the second question,
What would I rather have?
And what do I want to choose and make a choice.
Use your ability to choose.
This is your right.
Choosing what you want is literally your right.
It's how you receive what it is you want.
Don't just wish for what it is you want passively.
Simply use the energy of the contrast that you're experiencing.
Use the desire embedded in the contrast you're experiencing to choose your best life.
And tomorrow we'll come back and we'll conclude this discussion about contrast and duality.
And next week we'll move on to a new topic.
