Why you are always a Leader even if you don’t like it.

Leadership is widely misinterpret and many people see it above their fire place to be a leader.
That’s because we think we must lead others and that’s what leaders are about. NO it isn’t.
You as your human Physical body is a SHIP – Daily you are leading this ship.

You are everyday responsible for YOU in everything you do, no matter what. If it is self-destructive patterns or creational patterns, you are Leading YOU as your body as the ship to act/do.

Welcome aboard the new perspective on leadership. We can now officially stop blaming other people for the things WE do and act on, we are the ones making the decisions, we are leading ourselves, our body as the ship.

What goes on within you as the ship, the body, that’s all YOU, you are the crew and the leader.

Problem? Well we have separated ourselves as our Mind and body and that little internal voice to such an extent, we even believe that what we are experiencing within ourselves, within our own quarters of our ship can be due to others, that’s like a captain abandoning its ship. Which in this case is impossible, you are always going to be with you.

Solution? I have throughout my time living and working within a community setup and working with my hands a lot and having to direct things a lot on the property found that, That little voice in our heads needs to stop, or we cannot effectively lead ourselves, steering our ship.

I mean, who is talking to who? Seriously, when that little vice is speaking inside you, who is listening? YOU!!! Then who’s talking as the voice? Why do we need to or are even able to talk to ourselves? That’s crazy isn’t it? So stop that little voice and see direct, direct and live in the physical.

Now, what puts a ship really in a bad spot? Well, the motions of the ocean, we can have massive waves and storms hitting us each and every day and thus being held back. In our terms as US as our bodies and mind, our emotions are the motions of the ocean within us, and we need to stop the thoughts, feelings and emotions that throws our ship into ALL possible directions where we cannot get a grip on the steering wheel, and the beautiful part of this is, we are also the creators of these motions on our oceans, we accept and allow them, because we are the LEADER, we lead ourselves into temptation and follow the energy, the storm, instead of leading ourselves HERE in breathing and calmness and making decisions that we know we are deciding and not some random storm as a thought, feeling or emotion.

This is where the WILL power comes in once we take leadership within ourselves, to even when that thought we want to follow so badly comes up, or that strong emotion or feeling, to KNOW, I know where this is going and to thus INSTEAD Steer our ship as our body as our behaviour and our actions to LIVE that something else we DECIDE and lead ourselves to do and live.

Be patient, be gentle and always use breathing to anchor yourself HERE.
Thanks for reading.
