Another in the Concept Series of Daily Perspectives to enlighten and make effective your life. You can listen to these talks and achieve additional clarity in how you are living and not living your life. Consciousness is the meta level to existence. You make your choices and take action based on the core principles of existence. In this you are then grounded in what is real in life. Commitment to living core principles means you are eating away at the unconsciousness that you and most people live at. You know what you are doing, and you do what you know. You are living life consciously. You become aware of things as they are. CONSCIOUSNESS -as in the above CORE PRINCIPLES Live from core principles, such as balance the energy, integrate opposites, create wholes including all the parts, choose to integrate and affirm new unities. REALITY AWARENESS Live from awareness of what is. This means accept all of reality as it comes your way, rejecting nothing. Yet balance the energy. Don’t try to overwhelm someone or something. Don’t lose. Don’t win. CHOICE Make choices, choosing one thing and not other possibilities. Choice is the one absolute. What we choose is what we become. GREATER GUIDANCE Choose to follow greater guidance than ego in your life. When you do this you have the larger perspective. You do not put your own ego desires first but choose a greater value to live by. You make choices based on core principles and values. You make purposeful and meaningful your life. COMMITMENT You make a sustained choice to live from a greater source than ego. You do not fail this choice. Commitment to a value is the sustained choice that underlies all other choices that you make in daily life.
