7. Effectiveness is the measure of truth.

AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. . .

You, people and situations in your life are exactly the way they are. This is true whether you like it or not.

Resisting and fighting this causes upset. Resisting and avoiding a possible future outcome creates fear. In fear and upset we shut down; our ability to see clearly is impaired. In this state, it seems as if an external situation is causing the upset. But the upset is being caused by our fighting and resisting the situation.

To handle the situation, we need action, not resisting. Resisting keeps us from seeing the action we need to take.

Letting go is the inner action that removes the resisting. Letting go of resisting is the action that restores peace of mind. This in turn releases the fear and upset. We can then take the action we need to effectively handle the situation. Without fear and upset, we become creative and able to discover solutions. Letting go removes fear and upset so that we can see what action works.

To dismiss fear, you have to BE WILLING TO LET YOUR WORST FEARS COME TRUE. ("I am willing to have my worse fear come true.”) MAKE PEACE WITH THE WAY YOUR LIFE IS. Let go of your demands and expectations for how your life should be. ("I give this my full permission to be exactly the way it is.") Trust that no matter what happens, you will be okay. ("I will be okay no matter what happens. I trust, just because I say so.")

Feel all the sadness of being "not okay" that this situation reactivates. Avoidance of this hurt is what is causing you to resist. The hurt you are resisting is a very specific hurt from the past. It is the hurt of not feeling good enough for anyone to love. It is the hurt of feeling too separate from All This Is to love anyone in return. Finding and healing this hurt disappears the need to resist. This hurt is responsible for all your fear, upset and self-sabotage. This hurt is responsible for all your suffering. Finding and healing this hurt is one of the most important things you can do. Set yourself free. Then take the action you need to effectively handle your situation. Take whatever action you need to for your life to be great.
