Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hey, everyone all, Welcome to Taro Crazy.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Today we are looking at again the beginner's series and
good practices. We get asked a fear a bit about
alternate timelines, and the reality of this is there's no
such thing. You are going to make a choice, any choice,
any decision based on what you know, who you are,
what your experiences have been, What you want is going
(00:27):
to override just about everything else. And understanding what it
is that you want will allow you to assess your
choices and your decision making, and if things don't work
out that well for you, it gives you an opportunity
to perhaps rethink how you make those choices. The really
(00:48):
powerful thing to understand here. If you're drawing tarot cards
and you go what if, and you put if I
stay is one column and if I go is another column,
One of those columns is just false. It was never
going to exist. This line comes from a person asking
me about if I've made a choice to move countries.
(01:09):
This was the question, if I've made a choice to
move countries, can a psychic look back now and see
what would have happened if I hadn't If I hadn't
moved countries, what my life would be like, and there
is no parallel or alternative timeline for anybody. Not behind you,
for sure, but not in front of you either. Everything
sort of gathers in to fit the path you're choosing.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Can you change your future? Yes, and most don't.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
That's it because it takes a change of mind to
change what we see as a future, what we see
as an opportunity. And I've got an example for that
which is quite tidy and non personal. A person might say,
you know, if I'm going to choose this guy, I
(01:59):
really like this guy. It's really hot, everything's very cool.
We have a day to day reality with us, by
the way, we see it all the time. Most of
us have seen it with our friends, if not ourselves
at some point in the path.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I really like this guy. He's really hot.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
He's a bit of a bad boy, but I want him.
And that's your final phrase, I want him.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
And then we.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Move over and a friend of yours comes up and says, hey,
you know what, I've been talking to my friend and
they know the ex of this guy, and he's a
cheater and he's been not nice to her. And when
we found out that the girlfriend before had the same problem.
He's unreliable, he's probably going to hurt you. And so
you've got a couple of things that you'll do there.
You've got a choice right there, and that's the only
(02:43):
point where you can change your future, where you make
that choice. And so what most people do, and I'm
going to be very clear most people do, is they
choose what they want.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
And so they will either ignore the friend.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
They might even argue with the friends saying it's none
of your business, leave me alone, you're just jealous. They
will start to justify and validate their decisions for themselves
because they know it's probably true because they trusted that
friend right up until that moment.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I've even had it as a reader. By the way,
I had a.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Person asking me about she was having an affair with
a married guy. She was traveling to a state line
in the States to meet them so they could have sex.
That's why they were meeting, and he was doing that too,
And she asked me about a future with him because
she said, I believe that we're soulmates and we were
together in a past life. And I said, if you
don't know any of that, that's justifying having an affair,
(03:38):
you know, you're having an affair behind another woman's back.
Here's your first thing. But you also know he is
he's lying to his wife. He's driving to a state
line while she's pregnant with his child. By the way,
that was part of that story she gave. And you're
willing to do that to try and take him from her.
There's a question in here. So I said, it's not
(03:59):
going to work out for you. I wasn't judging either.
I just knew it wasn't going to work out. I'm
just a blunt speaker. This is what you're doing. There's
nothing spiritual in it. Don't make spiritual soulmate claims to
validate bad behavior or justify bad behavior. And so I said,
I didn't see a future in it. And a vision
I had was a genuine, clear went vision. It's what
I do was. I said, I see him standing in
(04:20):
the kitchen wearing an apron with no pants on, no
clothes on, he's naked, and he's baking, and he's laughing,
and he's turning around he's looking at his wife. And
I said, I see that in a year's time, Christmas
time somewhere, it feels like a holiday. And she got
really angry with me, and I said, all you're looking
for here is a life lesson, and she said, oh, well,
it's my life and it's my lesson. Still in I said,
(04:41):
absolutely correct, It didn't bother me at all.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
So she went ahead.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
She did do that, and then he did tell her
where to go after he got what he wanted out
of that, and then she went crying around to other
other friends that I've got now.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
I didn't know her.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
We were all running psychic shows on blog talk radio
back then, and we all knew each other. And she
was going from show to show to show saying how
she'd been used by this guy, and so we need
to ask questions about that. Firstly, she was in her thirties,
so you know you're not being used. But my point
is that even when a friend advises you, even when
you ask the advice of a psychic or a clairvoyant,
(05:18):
even if you ask the advice of a therapist or
a family member, you will choose what you want done
and dusted. And if you don't know what it is
you want, then you may not understand while you're making
that choice. If you wanted peace and serenity and a
calm life. The moment you got that advice, that warning, sorry,
(05:42):
you would then quit the danger game and think, you
know what, Yeah, no, that is too risky, that's a
bit silly. So when a person gives you warnings or
gives you advice and you choose to ignore that, that's okay,
that's your prerogative.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
But you were always going to make that choice.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
So when you asked for the advice, when you ask
the terror cards, when you asked should I or shouldn't I,
really you've already decided what it is you're going to do.
There's a person whose name I cannot remember, a man
about in the nineteen eighties late eighties, and I was
watching a seminar and he said something truly valuable, and
I've used it many times, and he said, it takes
(06:20):
four seconds to make a life changing decision. The rest
of the time, we're just scared of making the wrong decision,
always scared that that decision will be the wrong decision.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
So we're not really making choices or decisions.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
We are affirming the decision we've already made because we
don't know why we made it. Quite an interesting structure.
So when you are laying out terrort cards, and you're going,
what if I do this, what's that going to be?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Like? If I do that, what's that going to be like?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
One of those is going to be completely false because
you are only ever going to choose one, and you
can't read a forward line.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
So just just allow.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
This to sink in. You can't read a forward line
of motion, energetic or otherwise. That doesn't exist. It can't
be done. You can't do it psychically, you can't do
it with terrort cards. All you can do is ask
about your own feelings, and even then, you're never going
to choose one of those options. It was never going
to be. Ever, even if you make a choice now
(07:16):
that you think is probably not the choice you would
have made yesterday, the other option never going to be
So it's not a potential as soon as you have
your I want in place, which is usually right at
the start.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
So how do we get around this?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
If you're going to draw terrot cards and you've got
a couple of options and you think both options look
pretty good, then it comes down to what do I
want more?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Isn't that right?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
So when you understand what it is you want, then
it becomes more clear what the best choice is can
you change your mind and choose things differently?
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Yeah, it's hard work.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
That's why I've got a show called I've Got a
Channel here, Cause spiritual development isn't for sissies because it's
hard work to take a lifetime of process and experience
and belief and change it. Angry people have a choice
that's based on something different to a calm and happy
person done and dusted. A defensive person will make choices
(08:13):
based on their concerns about their own safety in some way,
shape or form, or their own abilities or the lack
of ability. A person who is non consequential and nature
will just make any choice that looks good in the moment.
If it turns out bad, they'll just shake themselves off
and then try something else, without guilt, without concern, without worry.
(08:35):
So when we get this, when we understand it, the
choice itself, if it's laid out before you, is really
just you asking yourself what do I want. If a
person is looking for a new job and they see
one that's giving them, say, eighty thousand dollars a year,
and the other one's giving them ninety two thousand dollars
(08:56):
a year, they can look at that second job and go,
I don't know about managing people. I prefer to just
do my own thing. But oh, ninety two thousand dollars
a year, it's twelve thousand more than the other job.
Even if the other job looks better. If what they
want is more money, they will take that every time.
That's why I'm saying there's not really choice in the
way that we see things until we understand what we want.
(09:20):
When you know you want the money, you get the job.
And I've had this happen with it for a client
of mine. Get the job, you go into that zone
that you didn't really want, which was the managing of
the other people, and then within a year you hate
your job, you hate your life, and things go wrong,
and the next thing you know, you've left that job
and you enjoyed your employer, but you couldn't stand the job,
(09:43):
and you couldn't step back because somebody had filled your
old role.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
These are the.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Things that go on and on and on. If you
understand what you want before you even think about drawing
the cards, then you can ask what the choice you
are going to make will entail. And so that means
something quite different. It's not what if I do this,
or what if I do that? It's definitely never should
I or shouldn't I, because it's like you've got pieces
(10:09):
of cardboard telling you what to do. I don't think.
So you're still going to only do what you want.
So if we want to apply forward motion and predictive
prediction divination to cards, which is what they are designed for,
that's the only way to treat them, then we need
to understand our foundation, our basis. This is why at
(10:29):
the colchic cross has this current situation and the crossing card.
You could literally do that. What is it that I
want in the decision that I'm making right now? What's
going to influence the decision isn't outside of you, it's
inside of you, And so you could literally lay down,
so here I am, my current situation, draw the card,
(10:49):
and just for arguments, say this isn't a real draw,
but just for argument's sake, say we put it down
and to.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Well make it the Queen of.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Swords, okay, Queen of swords in this instance and of
courses could be different. If I'm reading different people up
to a point, it would be then somebody that wants
things to be clear, straightforward you like clarity. You don't
want anything rubbishy or ridley. You don't want anything that's
too loose. Say, we're still talking about a job in
this case, so if I choose which job.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
So if I choose which job, it's what is it
that I want?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And so the current circumstance that I want as I
prefer a situation where it's organized, where it's not too
close and personal and chummy chummy, don't want that, don't
want people in my face all the time. That it's
fairly well regimented, and the word organized comes in there consistently,
so that I can get on with my job. I
know what I've got to do and leave me to it.
(11:43):
It's that kind of energy with that Queen of swords.
And so then we've got a crossing card. And so
you can practice this. Grab your cards, pause this, go
do that.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Do the first card. What did you get?
Speaker 2 (11:55):
If you do that, click in to spreaker to this
episode and you'll see the chat and type in what
it is you got. So type in the two cards.
I'll come and have a look at you in that
chat and I will respond to you. So you popped
your first card in and that's your current state. This
is the what you want. If you want peace, don't
(12:16):
be a teacher.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
And I'm not even being rude. You know, have you
been to schools lately?
Speaker 2 (12:22):
If you want If you want organization, not all companies
are organized.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Some of them are just diabolical.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And in the example I gave you before, that client
she went and got another job and she was a
money girl and the real estate agent, and she couldn't
stand it because she said, they want everything now, and
then there'll be three of them wanting something now, and
you couldn't process one after the other. And she felt
like she'd really lost the plot with that. She didn't
enjoy it at all. She said there were fun people,
(12:50):
but she couldn't handle the constant pressure. So understanding what
you want is huge because then you'll make a decision
that reflects what you want, and you know you going
to make that decision. And when you make a poor decision,
it'll be because you haven't recognized what you really want.
And that's in this situation. You might look for a
job in six months or a year or two years
(13:11):
time and it might be something different. You might have realized,
you know what I had that job, and it was
stable and it was organized and everything was formatted, and
I was bored to tears. Maybe I need something with
a bit more, something else going on there. Maybe I
need more responsibility. Maybe I need to be busier, you know,
whatever that might be. So there's your first cart. This
is what I want going forward in this situation, whatever
(13:33):
it is. If you're looking for a job, if you're
looking for a home, if you're thinking about moving, whatever
that might be. What do I want is where you start,
because that will decide for you whether you know what
it is or not. It will prove to be a
mistake if you don't get what you want, okay, and
when I say a mistake, it will prove to be
something you don't enjoy, or it'll be emotionally difficult if
(13:56):
you don't get what you want. If you think you
want something, And this is where the terry comes in
quite handily.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
In your mind.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
You know, and you're are see sing if you think
you know what I want is this is a relationship. Now.
I want a man who's stayable, who will stay with me,
wants to spend time with me. I want somebody who's
not really out there all the time, and then you
meet that person and they're really lovely, and nine months
later you're board to tears or they won't leave you alone.
They just sit around the house with you all the time.
(14:25):
They don't want to go out. You've got what you wanted,
but it's not what you wanted. So food for thought, right,
So you draw the card, and you got the Queen
of Swords, and then you draw this crossing card. Okay,
so the crossing card sits over it. Now this will
help or hinder. And in the case that I've just
given you, it could be that the surface idea is
(14:47):
not in alignment with what you want, and so it
causes you to be distracted or to be attracted to
something that isn't the truth of what you want, that
doesn't reflect who you are. And and so you've got
the Queen of Swords. We're talking about a job still,
and we've got these that's what you want. You want
that regimen, you want that organization that's from within you.
(15:09):
That's what you're looking for in that card. You might
even realize that's what you want, that you really need,
that stability, and you get anxious. If it isn't there,
you may not realize that anxiety and jobs that you've
had in the past are related to this need within yourself.
And then of course that crossing card it can be
a positive card, or it can be well, there's no
such thing as positive or negatives, I misspoke, but it
(15:30):
can be a card that you perceive.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
To be positive.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
And then you'll find how is that a problem with that?
How is that a hindrance to what it is? And
because what we're looking for with this crossing card is
it could be helpful to understand it. So that's where
it helps all hinders, but it can interfere with or
distract us from what it is we truly want. And
so say that second card we're talking about a job
(15:54):
we've got. The Queen of Swords say that second of
card is the three of pentacles. That you think you
know what you don't get anything that you don't work
hard for. And so you may have always over invested
in jobs in the past, working too many hours for
not enough pay, trying too hard to please people, and
found that stressful or used by them. So you can
(16:15):
use this card to look retrospectively, because it will present
retrospectively that want will have been there probably at least
for the last six months or so, because you're looking
for another job now, right. It's that understanding of that
dynamic as you look at those two things together and
you think, okay, so we've got the three of pentacles
(16:37):
or the three of diamonds if you're using playing cards,
or if you're using Victorian tera, where we've got the
pit cards the three of diamonds. It's just a constant
outflow of work. So we've got another kind of demonstration here,
and say a normal work industrial zones, commercial zones, say
you've got a person working in a laundry. They finish
their work during the day, they get up in the morning,
(16:58):
they go back to work, and theirs that pile again.
It's a never ending outflow. There's never ending. It never ends.
It just keeps going and going and going and going
and going.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Every day.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
The sheets come in every day, the clothes come in
every day. That there's just something else every day. It's
not like I've built a house. Oh look, there it is.
It's one of those sort of jobs, like many jobs,
where you don't ever see an actual result for your
own efforts. It's not a beginning, middle, and end type
of scenario. So that's just an example. Let's see what
(17:29):
you've got and ask yourself, Okay, that crossing card, how
does it affect the want cart underneath? That's my true
desire of what I want? How does it distract me
from that? And what does it do? There could be
with that three of diamonds. It could be where income
is superseding the need for a regimented, organized role that
(17:53):
doesn't have too many you know, distractions, deadlines or pressures
or last minute anythings. So how do they interplay for
you in your life and what you're wanting to go forward?
If you want a peaceful existence, you might not want
to work in an open plan office. I know lots
of people hate it. In fact, I don't know why
they still do it, because they've got such bad research
(18:15):
around productivity doesn't show it to be better.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It just takes you back to the day of the.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Boss standing there looking out his window at all his
minions and seeing that they're on the go all the time,
keeping them under pressure, keeping them under pressure, and knowing
that they're being watched. So if you understand what it
is that you want, you will find that your choice
reflects what you want and that's the bit to understand
when it reflects the superficial part that crossing card. If
(18:45):
it doesn't also give you what you want, because they
can work together. But if it doesn't also give you
what you want, then you won't enjoy it. And that's
quite a powerful thing to think about. So it's not
about should I choose this job or that job? Neither
of those questions are irrelevant. It's just not relevant because
what if that job doesn't give you what you want?
(19:06):
It doesn't matter which one if neither of them will
give you what you want. And when you understand what
you want, you may recognize that neither of those jobs
will give you what you want. You may recognize that
stepping up the latter may not give you what you want.
Just say, for example, your first card of what you
want is say the Night of Pinnacles or the Night
of diamonds, the Jack of diamonds. That's a solid card, right,
(19:30):
That's a card where a person's quite happy to do
the menial tasks. They're quite happy to do the step
by step process. They're quite happy to do what other
people aren't that happy to do. They may not be
looking for a career, they're just looking for a job.
They want to work nine to five, never have the
mind hassel, never have the emotional hassle. They want to
get paid enough to live on and they want to
go fishing every weekend, or they want to spend time
(19:52):
with their family every evening. They don't want pressure. I
just want to go to work, do a job, and live.
And they might be into an idea that they should
aim higher, even if it's not in their emotional makeup
to aim higher. In fact, you know, I was talking
to a friend a little while ago, and we have
a big super market throughout New Zealand called Packinsey, and
(20:14):
they were in a place there. They'd been working as
a cabinet maker tradesman for quite some years, and they
got over it for a minute. They just wanted to
break and they went and got themselves a job filling
shelves at night. They'd start work at midnight when the
shops are all closed, and then they would work till
four or five in the morning restocking everything. The letters
come out, you know, the stuff you can't do during
(20:35):
the day. And he was like flabbergaster because he said,
you know what, I don't earn a whole lot less
doing this job than I did as a cabinet maker.
And he said, I'm busy constantly. I go home, I
can sleep for four or five hours, and then my
day is my own. It was like a whole new
revelation for him. And while he didn't dislike what he'd
(20:56):
done before, because he loved working with his hands, he
discovered that, you know, sometimes we need to think outside
the box to get what we want, and at different
times of your life that's going to change. What you
want is going to change. He wanted a trade. He
had to do an apprenticeship to get that trade. He
was very good at his trade. He got paid quite
(21:17):
pretty well, actually very well in his trade, and he
didn't lose much money by doing something else. But now
he had a nine to five job. I go, I
do it, I leave, I go home. I've got no pressure.
I don't have to go back and finish something. I
don't have approval for the work that I've done, which
he had to have all the time previously. And so
what do I want? And when I asked that question,
(21:39):
it can be in career, it can be in finances.
Another story around knowing what you want was a bit
of my own story. Really, I can go back. And
I was very aware that I wanted freedom. Freedom was
like a catchword for me. My car meant freedom to me.
I would say that there's my freedom sitting there on
the road.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
True story.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
As long as my car went, I was a happy girl,
and I could go anywhere in it. I always have
a four wheel drive, so I can go wherever I
want in this thing and that thing.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I've got another one now, and so that was mine
for years.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
And then I decided I wanted a business, and so
I signed a lease, a three year lease, set up
the business, spent a lot of money doing that, nearly
went broke doing that. Doing what I'm doing now, I'm
doing readings and energy work and all the rest of it.
But I was selling cards, terror cards, oracle cards, crystals,
oral readings, all of the skills that I've got, plus
(22:32):
the paraphernalia for other people to do that. And I
didn't want the shop, and I knew it even when
I did it. I didn't want to be in retail,
but I thought, oh, well, it'll pay the rent. And
then I realized, oh, now I've got to hire a peerson,
and so now I'm responsible for another adult and their income.
I'm responsible for a lease. I'm tied to it six
days a week from the beginning of opening and before
(22:55):
opening to the end of the day.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Because I was doing readings I still do.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
I would have to be there till after people finished work,
because people don't take time off work to go and
get a reading. They take time off work to go
to a doctor, but not to get a reading. And
so I had to work the weekends and I shut
on the Monday, and it become this awful thing. People
would come in early and or late. And by year
(23:21):
two I really hated it. Have you got no other
words for it? I did not like it. And I
was under a lot of financial street pressure. I was
under a lot of responsible pressure. But more than anything,
I sat there and I just thought, I don't know
what went wrong, because I'd fallen into a spiritual trap.
If you like, which is like, if you've got good
intentions and if you've got the right idea, it should
just work.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Where that's a big fat lie.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
It's got to reflect what you want, not just some
kind of spiritual idea. And so I found that when
I ended that it ended because I just couldn't afford
to state in it. I hadn't taken a wage for
a long time. I had to get a second job
pumping gas. And I was fine with that.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Any person that.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Earns money working there's no better job, there's no worse job,
there's no higher superiority. It just doesn't matter. If you're
working and earning money, you are doing just fine. Because
I felt great about that. So before where when I
was in my shop, I was earning money that just
went out in one hand out the other.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Everybody was taking a piece.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Everything cost a lot of money, just utilities, you know,
the thelease itself. Everything was more expensive when you're in
a business. Plus I was paying company tacks. The whole
thing was. It just a nightmare.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
So when that.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Came to an end, I just rented a little office.
It was a month by month's rental, not a long
term lease. It cost a fraction. I didn't need to
hire staff. I got rid of all of my stock
that I had, and I just went back bear bones
and I loved it.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I had to lovely leave the couch.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
People could come and get hypnotized and they would jump
on the couch, put their feet up and lie back
like they were in their own lounge. Everybody that walked
in that wanted hypnosis would say, can I put my
feet up on the couch? Absolutely again, and they would
lie there and be really happy. Or I could do readings.
I was working online then too already, so I was
doing a combination, which I still do, but it's more
online now than in person. And so the fascinating thing
(25:14):
was that was the moment that I realized, you know,
this is actually quite freeing.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
I feel.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
It's not about the money going out, it's not about
any of that. It was just I felt trapped and
what I had chosen and what I had decided because
I thought it was the vehicle to get me where
I needed to go, And a whole pile of people
over time had said, oh, you needed to do that,
because and you needed and I just shook my head and.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
I said, no, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I just thought that that was the way to go.
And I wasn't listening to me. I wasn't listening to
the One thing that I keep saying is that word freedom.
I have it completely now. I work anywhere that I
want to live. I can work anywhere, I can work
from my car, I can because ninety percent of it's online.
(25:57):
The freedom is in my life and has been now
for quite a long time. But if I've understood that
that's what I wanted, I wanted that freedom. I'm a wanderer,
I'm a shifter, I'm a mover. I really enjoy moving
to different places and setting up for a few years
and then finding somewhere else beautiful, making new friends. I
love all of that. And so when you understand yourself
(26:19):
really well, you will create your life around what you want.
And it doesn't matter if it gets tough here and there,
You'll still be happier doing it that way, doing it
your way, then you will be if you're trying to
fit into a model, that isn't you, trying to fit
into a box that isn't you. And that is spiritual
understanding of how we make choices. I mentioned a couple
of days ago when somebody was talking about choices and
(26:42):
freedom of will and blah blah. They mentioned about choices
being forced upon us. And I want to explain that
through the word catalyst. And you can draw a card
for this, but the truth of a catalyst is it
doesn't come along or stay with you a catalyst is
something that makes everything in your mind.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Or your thought, or what you've believed about yourself or
the world.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Change, And it often comes along when you're in stuck
mode and you're being stuck for a while. A person
might come along and you have a mind blowing a fear,
and then they leave. They're not there for you for
your future, but because you did that, everything changes what
you expect for yourself, what you expect for your life.
A marriage might break down, you know you could go,
(27:28):
and you could be sitting in the job, the same
old job. A company buys out and says, all right now,
I want everybody to do things this way, and you
hate it, so you leave that job, and you would
never have left otherwise. That new model becomes a catalyst,
and a catalyst is something that brings about change, not
because it forces you out, but because it changes how
you think about things, how you feel about things, how
(27:50):
you think will feel about yourself.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
It could be a real.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Eye opener, and it allows you to make choices from
a different level, better or worse. By the way, a
catalyst doesn't force you to make different choices. It's more
of an eye opener where events sort of are bigger,
and you find yourself in a situation you may not
have thought you would find yourself in. Again, it usually
only happens when you're a bit stuck, and when you
(28:14):
don't know what you want. You might find a catalyst
to show you the right way. And I don't want
to sound as if that's externalized, because it really isn't.
You are looking for something, and when you are looking
for something, you will find it. But is it the
thing that you really want? That's the question. Right There's
a very old saying, watch out for what you wish for,
(28:36):
because you just might get it. TENA one's boom right there.
I'm Dorothy, This is Taro Crazy Chalfin Now
Hey, everyone all, Welcome to Taro Crazy.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Today we are looking at again the beginner's series and
good practices. We get asked a fear a bit about
alternate timelines, and the reality of this is there's no
such thing. You are going to make a choice, any choice,
any decision based on what you know, who you are,
what your experiences have been, What you want is going
(00:27):
to override just about everything else. And understanding what it
is that you want will allow you to assess your
choices and your decision making, and if things don't work
out that well for you, it gives you an opportunity
to perhaps rethink how you make those choices. The really
(00:48):
powerful thing to understand here. If you're drawing tarot cards
and you go what if, and you put if I
stay is one column and if I go is another column,
One of those columns is just false. It was never
going to exist. This line comes from a person asking
me about if I've made a choice to move countries.
(01:09):
This was the question, if I've made a choice to
move countries, can a psychic look back now and see
what would have happened if I hadn't If I hadn't
moved countries, what my life would be like, and there
is no parallel or alternative timeline for anybody. Not behind you,
for sure, but not in front of you either. Everything
sort of gathers in to fit the path you're choosing.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Can you change your future? Yes, and most don't.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
That's it because it takes a change of mind to
change what we see as a future, what we see
as an opportunity. And I've got an example for that
which is quite tidy and non personal. A person might say,
you know, if I'm going to choose this guy, I
(01:59):
really like this guy. It's really hot, everything's very cool.
We have a day to day reality with us, by
the way, we see it all the time. Most of
us have seen it with our friends, if not ourselves
at some point in the path.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I really like this guy. He's really hot.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
He's a bit of a bad boy, but I want him.
And that's your final phrase, I want him.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
And then we.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Move over and a friend of yours comes up and says, hey,
you know what, I've been talking to my friend and
they know the ex of this guy, and he's a
cheater and he's been not nice to her. And when
we found out that the girlfriend before had the same problem.
He's unreliable, he's probably going to hurt you. And so
you've got a couple of things that you'll do there.
You've got a choice right there, and that's the only
(02:43):
point where you can change your future, where you make
that choice. And so what most people do, and I'm
going to be very clear most people do, is they
choose what they want.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
And so they will either ignore the friend.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
They might even argue with the friends saying it's none
of your business, leave me alone, you're just jealous. They
will start to justify and validate their decisions for themselves
because they know it's probably true because they trusted that
friend right up until that moment.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I've even had it as a reader. By the way,
I had a.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Person asking me about she was having an affair with
a married guy. She was traveling to a state line
in the States to meet them so they could have sex.
That's why they were meeting, and he was doing that too,
And she asked me about a future with him because
she said, I believe that we're soulmates and we were
together in a past life. And I said, if you
don't know any of that, that's justifying having an affair,
(03:38):
you know, you're having an affair behind another woman's back.
Here's your first thing. But you also know he is
he's lying to his wife. He's driving to a state
line while she's pregnant with his child. By the way,
that was part of that story she gave. And you're
willing to do that to try and take him from her.
There's a question in here. So I said, it's not
(03:59):
going to work out for you. I wasn't judging either.
I just knew it wasn't going to work out. I'm
just a blunt speaker. This is what you're doing. There's
nothing spiritual in it. Don't make spiritual soulmate claims to
validate bad behavior or justify bad behavior. And so I said,
I didn't see a future in it. And a vision
I had was a genuine, clear went vision. It's what
I do was. I said, I see him standing in
(04:20):
the kitchen wearing an apron with no pants on, no
clothes on, he's naked, and he's baking, and he's laughing,
and he's turning around he's looking at his wife. And
I said, I see that in a year's time, Christmas
time somewhere, it feels like a holiday. And she got
really angry with me, and I said, all you're looking
for here is a life lesson, and she said, oh, well,
it's my life and it's my lesson. Still in I said,
(04:41):
absolutely correct, It didn't bother me at all.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
So she went ahead.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
She did do that, and then he did tell her
where to go after he got what he wanted out
of that, and then she went crying around to other
other friends that I've got now.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
I didn't know her.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
We were all running psychic shows on blog talk radio
back then, and we all knew each other. And she
was going from show to show to show saying how
she'd been used by this guy, and so we need
to ask questions about that. Firstly, she was in her thirties,
so you know you're not being used. But my point
is that even when a friend advises you, even when
you ask the advice of a psychic or a clairvoyant,
(05:18):
even if you ask the advice of a therapist or
a family member, you will choose what you want done
and dusted. And if you don't know what it is
you want, then you may not understand while you're making
that choice. If you wanted peace and serenity and a
calm life. The moment you got that advice, that warning, sorry,
(05:42):
you would then quit the danger game and think, you
know what, Yeah, no, that is too risky, that's a
bit silly. So when a person gives you warnings or
gives you advice and you choose to ignore that, that's okay,
that's your prerogative.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
But you were always going to make that choice.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
So when you asked for the advice, when you ask
the terror cards, when you asked should I or shouldn't I,
really you've already decided what it is you're going to do.
There's a person whose name I cannot remember, a man
about in the nineteen eighties late eighties, and I was
watching a seminar and he said something truly valuable, and
I've used it many times, and he said, it takes
(06:20):
four seconds to make a life changing decision. The rest
of the time, we're just scared of making the wrong decision,
always scared that that decision will be the wrong decision.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
So we're not really making choices or decisions.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
We are affirming the decision we've already made because we
don't know why we made it. Quite an interesting structure.
So when you are laying out terrort cards, and you're going,
what if I do this, what's that going to be?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Like? If I do that, what's that going to be like?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
One of those is going to be completely false because
you are only ever going to choose one, and you
can't read a forward line.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
So just just allow.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
This to sink in. You can't read a forward line
of motion, energetic or otherwise. That doesn't exist. It can't
be done. You can't do it psychically, you can't do
it with terrort cards. All you can do is ask
about your own feelings, and even then, you're never going
to choose one of those options. It was never going
to be. Ever, even if you make a choice now
(07:16):
that you think is probably not the choice you would
have made yesterday, the other option never going to be
So it's not a potential as soon as you have
your I want in place, which is usually right at
the start.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
So how do we get around this?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
If you're going to draw terrot cards and you've got
a couple of options and you think both options look
pretty good, then it comes down to what do I
want more?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Isn't that right?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
So when you understand what it is you want, then
it becomes more clear what the best choice is can
you change your mind and choose things differently?
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Yeah, it's hard work.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
That's why I've got a show called I've Got a
Channel here, Cause spiritual development isn't for sissies because it's
hard work to take a lifetime of process and experience
and belief and change it. Angry people have a choice
that's based on something different to a calm and happy
person done and dusted. A defensive person will make choices
(08:13):
based on their concerns about their own safety in some way,
shape or form, or their own abilities or the lack
of ability. A person who is non consequential and nature
will just make any choice that looks good in the moment.
If it turns out bad, they'll just shake themselves off
and then try something else, without guilt, without concern, without worry.
(08:35):
So when we get this, when we understand it, the
choice itself, if it's laid out before you, is really
just you asking yourself what do I want. If a
person is looking for a new job and they see
one that's giving them, say, eighty thousand dollars a year,
and the other one's giving them ninety two thousand dollars
(08:56):
a year, they can look at that second job and go,
I don't know about managing people. I prefer to just
do my own thing. But oh, ninety two thousand dollars
a year, it's twelve thousand more than the other job.
Even if the other job looks better. If what they
want is more money, they will take that every time.
That's why I'm saying there's not really choice in the
way that we see things until we understand what we want.
(09:20):
When you know you want the money, you get the job.
And I've had this happen with it for a client
of mine. Get the job, you go into that zone
that you didn't really want, which was the managing of
the other people, and then within a year you hate
your job, you hate your life, and things go wrong,
and the next thing you know, you've left that job
and you enjoyed your employer, but you couldn't stand the job,
(09:43):
and you couldn't step back because somebody had filled your
old role.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
These are the.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Things that go on and on and on. If you
understand what you want before you even think about drawing
the cards, then you can ask what the choice you
are going to make will entail. And so that means
something quite different. It's not what if I do this,
or what if I do that? It's definitely never should
I or shouldn't I, because it's like you've got pieces
(10:09):
of cardboard telling you what to do. I don't think.
So you're still going to only do what you want.
So if we want to apply forward motion and predictive
prediction divination to cards, which is what they are designed for,
that's the only way to treat them, then we need
to understand our foundation, our basis. This is why at
(10:29):
the colchic cross has this current situation and the crossing card.
You could literally do that. What is it that I
want in the decision that I'm making right now? What's
going to influence the decision isn't outside of you, it's
inside of you, And so you could literally lay down,
so here I am, my current situation, draw the card,
(10:49):
and just for arguments, say this isn't a real draw,
but just for argument's sake, say we put it down
and to.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Well make it the Queen of.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Swords, okay, Queen of swords in this instance and of
courses could be different. If I'm reading different people up
to a point, it would be then somebody that wants
things to be clear, straightforward you like clarity. You don't
want anything rubbishy or ridley. You don't want anything that's
too loose. Say, we're still talking about a job in
this case, so if I choose which job.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
So if I choose which job, it's what is it
that I want?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And so the current circumstance that I want as I
prefer a situation where it's organized, where it's not too
close and personal and chummy chummy, don't want that, don't
want people in my face all the time. That it's
fairly well regimented, and the word organized comes in there consistently,
so that I can get on with my job. I
know what I've got to do and leave me to it.
(11:43):
It's that kind of energy with that Queen of swords.
And so then we've got a crossing card. And so
you can practice this. Grab your cards, pause this, go
do that.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Do the first card. What did you get?
Speaker 2 (11:55):
If you do that, click in to spreaker to this
episode and you'll see the chat and type in what
it is you got. So type in the two cards.
I'll come and have a look at you in that
chat and I will respond to you. So you popped
your first card in and that's your current state. This
is the what you want. If you want peace, don't
(12:16):
be a teacher.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
And I'm not even being rude. You know, have you
been to schools lately?
Speaker 2 (12:22):
If you want If you want organization, not all companies
are organized.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Some of them are just diabolical.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And in the example I gave you before, that client
she went and got another job and she was a
money girl and the real estate agent, and she couldn't
stand it because she said, they want everything now, and
then there'll be three of them wanting something now, and
you couldn't process one after the other. And she felt
like she'd really lost the plot with that. She didn't
enjoy it at all. She said there were fun people,
(12:50):
but she couldn't handle the constant pressure. So understanding what
you want is huge because then you'll make a decision
that reflects what you want, and you know you going
to make that decision. And when you make a poor decision,
it'll be because you haven't recognized what you really want.
And that's in this situation. You might look for a
job in six months or a year or two years
(13:11):
time and it might be something different. You might have realized,
you know what I had that job, and it was
stable and it was organized and everything was formatted, and
I was bored to tears. Maybe I need something with
a bit more, something else going on there. Maybe I
need more responsibility. Maybe I need to be busier, you know,
whatever that might be. So there's your first cart. This
is what I want going forward in this situation, whatever
(13:33):
it is. If you're looking for a job, if you're
looking for a home, if you're thinking about moving, whatever
that might be. What do I want is where you start,
because that will decide for you whether you know what
it is or not. It will prove to be a
mistake if you don't get what you want, okay, and
when I say a mistake, it will prove to be
something you don't enjoy, or it'll be emotionally difficult if
(13:56):
you don't get what you want. If you think you
want something, And this is where the terry comes in
quite handily.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
In your mind.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
You know, and you're are see sing if you think
you know what I want is this is a relationship. Now.
I want a man who's stayable, who will stay with me,
wants to spend time with me. I want somebody who's
not really out there all the time, and then you
meet that person and they're really lovely, and nine months
later you're board to tears or they won't leave you alone.
They just sit around the house with you all the time.
(14:25):
They don't want to go out. You've got what you wanted,
but it's not what you wanted. So food for thought, right,
So you draw the card, and you got the Queen
of Swords, and then you draw this crossing card. Okay,
so the crossing card sits over it. Now this will
help or hinder. And in the case that I've just
given you, it could be that the surface idea is
(14:47):
not in alignment with what you want, and so it
causes you to be distracted or to be attracted to
something that isn't the truth of what you want, that
doesn't reflect who you are. And and so you've got
the Queen of Swords. We're talking about a job still,
and we've got these that's what you want. You want
that regimen, you want that organization that's from within you.
(15:09):
That's what you're looking for in that card. You might
even realize that's what you want, that you really need,
that stability, and you get anxious. If it isn't there,
you may not realize that anxiety and jobs that you've
had in the past are related to this need within yourself.
And then of course that crossing card it can be
a positive card, or it can be well, there's no
such thing as positive or negatives, I misspoke, but it
(15:30):
can be a card that you perceive.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
To be positive.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
And then you'll find how is that a problem with that?
How is that a hindrance to what it is? And
because what we're looking for with this crossing card is
it could be helpful to understand it. So that's where
it helps all hinders, but it can interfere with or
distract us from what it is we truly want. And
so say that second card we're talking about a job
(15:54):
we've got. The Queen of Swords say that second of
card is the three of pentacles. That you think you
know what you don't get anything that you don't work
hard for. And so you may have always over invested
in jobs in the past, working too many hours for
not enough pay, trying too hard to please people, and
found that stressful or used by them. So you can
(16:15):
use this card to look retrospectively, because it will present
retrospectively that want will have been there probably at least
for the last six months or so, because you're looking
for another job now, right. It's that understanding of that
dynamic as you look at those two things together and
you think, okay, so we've got the three of pentacles
(16:37):
or the three of diamonds if you're using playing cards,
or if you're using Victorian tera, where we've got the
pit cards the three of diamonds. It's just a constant
outflow of work. So we've got another kind of demonstration here,
and say a normal work industrial zones, commercial zones, say
you've got a person working in a laundry. They finish
their work during the day, they get up in the morning,
(16:58):
they go back to work, and theirs that pile again.
It's a never ending outflow. There's never ending. It never ends.
It just keeps going and going and going and going
and going.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Every day.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
The sheets come in every day, the clothes come in
every day. That there's just something else every day. It's
not like I've built a house. Oh look, there it is.
It's one of those sort of jobs, like many jobs,
where you don't ever see an actual result for your
own efforts. It's not a beginning, middle, and end type
of scenario. So that's just an example. Let's see what
(17:29):
you've got and ask yourself, Okay, that crossing card, how
does it affect the want cart underneath? That's my true
desire of what I want? How does it distract me
from that? And what does it do? There could be
with that three of diamonds. It could be where income
is superseding the need for a regimented, organized role that
(17:53):
doesn't have too many you know, distractions, deadlines or pressures
or last minute anythings. So how do they interplay for
you in your life and what you're wanting to go forward?
If you want a peaceful existence, you might not want
to work in an open plan office. I know lots
of people hate it. In fact, I don't know why
they still do it, because they've got such bad research
(18:15):
around productivity doesn't show it to be better.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It just takes you back to the day of the.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Boss standing there looking out his window at all his
minions and seeing that they're on the go all the time,
keeping them under pressure, keeping them under pressure, and knowing
that they're being watched. So if you understand what it
is that you want, you will find that your choice
reflects what you want and that's the bit to understand
when it reflects the superficial part that crossing card. If
(18:45):
it doesn't also give you what you want, because they
can work together. But if it doesn't also give you
what you want, then you won't enjoy it. And that's
quite a powerful thing to think about. So it's not
about should I choose this job or that job? Neither
of those questions are irrelevant. It's just not relevant because
what if that job doesn't give you what you want?
(19:06):
It doesn't matter which one if neither of them will
give you what you want. And when you understand what
you want, you may recognize that neither of those jobs
will give you what you want. You may recognize that
stepping up the latter may not give you what you want.
Just say, for example, your first card of what you
want is say the Night of Pinnacles or the Night
of diamonds, the Jack of diamonds. That's a solid card, right,
(19:30):
That's a card where a person's quite happy to do
the menial tasks. They're quite happy to do the step
by step process. They're quite happy to do what other
people aren't that happy to do. They may not be
looking for a career, they're just looking for a job.
They want to work nine to five, never have the
mind hassel, never have the emotional hassle. They want to
get paid enough to live on and they want to
go fishing every weekend, or they want to spend time
(19:52):
with their family every evening. They don't want pressure. I
just want to go to work, do a job, and live.
And they might be into an idea that they should
aim higher, even if it's not in their emotional makeup
to aim higher. In fact, you know, I was talking
to a friend a little while ago, and we have
a big super market throughout New Zealand called Packinsey, and
(20:14):
they were in a place there. They'd been working as
a cabinet maker tradesman for quite some years, and they
got over it for a minute. They just wanted to
break and they went and got themselves a job filling
shelves at night. They'd start work at midnight when the
shops are all closed, and then they would work till
four or five in the morning restocking everything. The letters
come out, you know, the stuff you can't do during
(20:35):
the day. And he was like flabbergaster because he said,
you know what, I don't earn a whole lot less
doing this job than I did as a cabinet maker.
And he said, I'm busy constantly. I go home, I
can sleep for four or five hours, and then my
day is my own. It was like a whole new
revelation for him. And while he didn't dislike what he'd
(20:56):
done before, because he loved working with his hands, he
discovered that, you know, sometimes we need to think outside
the box to get what we want, and at different
times of your life that's going to change. What you
want is going to change. He wanted a trade. He
had to do an apprenticeship to get that trade. He
was very good at his trade. He got paid quite
(21:17):
pretty well, actually very well in his trade, and he
didn't lose much money by doing something else. But now
he had a nine to five job. I go, I
do it, I leave, I go home. I've got no pressure.
I don't have to go back and finish something. I
don't have approval for the work that I've done, which
he had to have all the time previously. And so
what do I want? And when I asked that question,
(21:39):
it can be in career, it can be in finances.
Another story around knowing what you want was a bit
of my own story. Really, I can go back. And
I was very aware that I wanted freedom. Freedom was
like a catchword for me. My car meant freedom to me.
I would say that there's my freedom sitting there on
the road.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
True story.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
As long as my car went, I was a happy girl,
and I could go anywhere in it. I always have
a four wheel drive, so I can go wherever I
want in this thing and that thing.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
I've got another one now, and so that was mine
for years.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
And then I decided I wanted a business, and so
I signed a lease, a three year lease, set up
the business, spent a lot of money doing that, nearly
went broke doing that. Doing what I'm doing now, I'm
doing readings and energy work and all the rest of it.
But I was selling cards, terror cards, oracle cards, crystals,
oral readings, all of the skills that I've got, plus
(22:32):
the paraphernalia for other people to do that. And I
didn't want the shop, and I knew it even when
I did it. I didn't want to be in retail,
but I thought, oh, well, it'll pay the rent. And
then I realized, oh, now I've got to hire a peerson,
and so now I'm responsible for another adult and their income.
I'm responsible for a lease. I'm tied to it six
days a week from the beginning of opening and before
(22:55):
opening to the end of the day.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Because I was doing readings I still do.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
I would have to be there till after people finished work,
because people don't take time off work to go and
get a reading. They take time off work to go
to a doctor, but not to get a reading. And
so I had to work the weekends and I shut
on the Monday, and it become this awful thing. People
would come in early and or late. And by year
(23:21):
two I really hated it. Have you got no other
words for it? I did not like it. And I
was under a lot of financial street pressure. I was
under a lot of responsible pressure. But more than anything,
I sat there and I just thought, I don't know
what went wrong, because I'd fallen into a spiritual trap.
If you like, which is like, if you've got good
intentions and if you've got the right idea, it should
just work.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Where that's a big fat lie.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
It's got to reflect what you want, not just some
kind of spiritual idea. And so I found that when
I ended that it ended because I just couldn't afford
to state in it. I hadn't taken a wage for
a long time. I had to get a second job
pumping gas. And I was fine with that.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Any person that.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Earns money working there's no better job, there's no worse job,
there's no higher superiority. It just doesn't matter. If you're
working and earning money, you are doing just fine. Because
I felt great about that. So before where when I
was in my shop, I was earning money that just
went out in one hand out the other.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Everybody was taking a piece.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Everything cost a lot of money, just utilities, you know,
the thelease itself. Everything was more expensive when you're in
a business. Plus I was paying company tacks. The whole
thing was. It just a nightmare.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
So when that.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Came to an end, I just rented a little office.
It was a month by month's rental, not a long
term lease. It cost a fraction. I didn't need to
hire staff. I got rid of all of my stock
that I had, and I just went back bear bones
and I loved it.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I had to lovely leave the couch.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
People could come and get hypnotized and they would jump
on the couch, put their feet up and lie back
like they were in their own lounge. Everybody that walked
in that wanted hypnosis would say, can I put my
feet up on the couch? Absolutely again, and they would
lie there and be really happy. Or I could do readings.
I was working online then too already, so I was
doing a combination, which I still do, but it's more
online now than in person. And so the fascinating thing
(25:14):
was that was the moment that I realized, you know,
this is actually quite freeing.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
I feel.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
It's not about the money going out, it's not about
any of that. It was just I felt trapped and
what I had chosen and what I had decided because
I thought it was the vehicle to get me where
I needed to go, And a whole pile of people
over time had said, oh, you needed to do that,
because and you needed and I just shook my head and.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
I said, no, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I just thought that that was the way to go.
And I wasn't listening to me. I wasn't listening to
the One thing that I keep saying is that word freedom.
I have it completely now. I work anywhere that I
want to live. I can work anywhere, I can work
from my car, I can because ninety percent of it's online.
(25:57):
The freedom is in my life and has been now
for quite a long time. But if I've understood that
that's what I wanted, I wanted that freedom. I'm a wanderer,
I'm a shifter, I'm a mover. I really enjoy moving
to different places and setting up for a few years
and then finding somewhere else beautiful, making new friends. I
love all of that. And so when you understand yourself
(26:19):
really well, you will create your life around what you want.
And it doesn't matter if it gets tough here and there,
You'll still be happier doing it that way, doing it
your way, then you will be if you're trying to
fit into a model, that isn't you, trying to fit
into a box that isn't you. And that is spiritual
understanding of how we make choices. I mentioned a couple
of days ago when somebody was talking about choices and
(26:42):
freedom of will and blah blah. They mentioned about choices
being forced upon us. And I want to explain that
through the word catalyst. And you can draw a card
for this, but the truth of a catalyst is it
doesn't come along or stay with you a catalyst is
something that makes everything in your mind.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Or your thought, or what you've believed about yourself or
the world.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Change, And it often comes along when you're in stuck
mode and you're being stuck for a while. A person
might come along and you have a mind blowing a fear,
and then they leave. They're not there for you for
your future, but because you did that, everything changes what
you expect for yourself, what you expect for your life.
A marriage might break down, you know you could go,
(27:28):
and you could be sitting in the job, the same
old job. A company buys out and says, all right now,
I want everybody to do things this way, and you
hate it, so you leave that job, and you would
never have left otherwise. That new model becomes a catalyst,
and a catalyst is something that brings about change, not
because it forces you out, but because it changes how
you think about things, how you feel about things, how
(27:50):
you think will feel about yourself.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
It could be a real.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Eye opener, and it allows you to make choices from
a different level, better or worse. By the way, a
catalyst doesn't force you to make different choices. It's more
of an eye opener where events sort of are bigger,
and you find yourself in a situation you may not
have thought you would find yourself in. Again, it usually
only happens when you're a bit stuck, and when you
(28:14):
don't know what you want. You might find a catalyst
to show you the right way. And I don't want
to sound as if that's externalized, because it really isn't.
You are looking for something, and when you are looking
for something, you will find it. But is it the
thing that you really want? That's the question. Right There's
a very old saying, watch out for what you wish for,
(28:36):
because you just might get it. TENA one's boom right there.
