Work – A Masterpiece of Joy, Love, and Art

Work can be a masterpiece of joy. This applies to just about any work. We can be cleaning up after horses. Or we can be running a major corporation. We could be earning below minimum wage. Or we could be making a seven figure income.

In just about any case our work can be a masterpiece of joy.

How do we do this? It depends on how we look at it. When we look at things differently, we experience them differently. And quite often the things we’re looking at change.

For example, if we’re doing house cleaning for a living, we can dedicate our work to God and / or our families. We can recognize that we’re bringing order and cleanliness to a part of the world.

We can choose to make the housework a masterpiece of art. Perhaps we can do something special to make the house slightly more beautiful.

We can work while we’re observing our selves with love and observing the environment with love. There are many such processes in this blog.

We can work while improving our ability to see the hidden beauty in everyone and everything.

Intention is key. If we’re working with the intention of getting away from the work, we’re likely to suffer. If we work with the intention of contributing to some worthy cause, our work can be joyous.

If we work to serve our clients, employers, or consumers then the work can be a happy experience.

We can do this even if we’re unemployed or retired. There always some area requiring work. It might be helping ourself. It might be helping friends. It might be some form of volunteer work. It might be working at finding a job. It might be creating a business. It might be doing a blog

Working with joy improves our overall well being.

Finding Unconditional Love

Do you want unconditiional love? Get a dog. Sometimes it works with a cat.

These friends can be amazing teachers. What would life be like if we looked at everyone the way our dogs look at us?

A wonderful personal goal is to become as good as our dogs think we are.

Inviting God to Work Through Us

We can invite God to work through us. We can let go of the desire to control. We can let go of the desire for approval. We can let go of the desire to survive. We’ll survive anyway.

It feels absolutely wonderful.

It’s quite energizing.

We can remind ourselves throughout the day to keep doing this – letting God work through us. It becomes a constant mode of operation. It’s the best mode of operation we can have.

It’s the fast track to bliss.

Guided Meditation – Observing Your self

The best way to get out of a thinking frenzy or uncomfortable emotions is to simply step out.

Huh? Yes! When you observe yourself you step out of all that stuff. Voila!!! Instant relief!!!

In meditation, self observation is the most important and fundamental step. Unfortunately, many self help systems overlook this completely.

The idea is to observe your self without judgement.

Have you spent years trying to quiet your mind? Okay, let’s experience a quiet mind right now.
