Master each level

I'd like to thank my soul sister Carolyne Burnett for this idea. She shared it with us when we recorded a recent episode of the Soul Sisters radio show on One World Radio.

Imagine your life as one of those multi-layer computer games where you have to jump and run around collecting vital bonuses, mastering each level before you can get to the next.

In each level you start off not knowing the layout, having no idea where the beasties are or where to find the bonuses. As you play and replay the level you learn where all the baddies and all the goodies are hidden and you learn where each track takes you and how you need to act to get through.

There are two ways to play once you have understood the basic layout. You can rush around, defeat all that you need to and then progress to the next level as quick as possible or you can take a little more time to go around each part and collect all the bonuses.

This analogy is perfect to look at how you approach your personal growth. Do you just want to clear the issues and move on as soon as possible or are you prepared to take the time to collect all the bonuses that come from really integrating each opportunity for growth?

In the computer game we usually find that we need the bonuses from a previous level to help us get through the next one. And so it is in the game of life. If we take the time to fully absorb and process all the lessons and healing we are far better prepared for the next level. In this case it is moving to a deeper level of healing and self awareness as well as to expanded consciousness.

Growing ourselves is not something to be quickly accomplished, which is not always a popular thing to say in our ADHD society, but in-order to be successful on the next level it is vital to take all the bonuses you can find before moving up.

This concept can be equally applied to every area of your life. Master the basics, build strong roots and foundation, reap all you can from the experience and then move up and expand.

By applying this basic concept, your success is guaranteed no matter what the endeavour.

In love
