Sophie's Challenges

Oh, I can bring

The same ACTION as the chewing to my tasks? I know, you have been saying this for ever
I had a Marvelous Revelation. Simple but Not.

yes, most people haven't been able to connect the dots... let's hope the connection remains... and this becomes a distinction for you.

I have been confused, Today, Slightly disoriented.

I kept too, Noticing When I am Present/Not present and continued with my tasks for the
day. Also noticing, More things are being completed with ease and a sense of accomplishment.

Amazing to be in the moment, Not pulled in so many directions I don't know where to start.

The biggest notable change is how less reactive I am becoming.

Not rushing the task at hand, 'To get to the next thing."

I can do things to a good standard without all the efforting and over thinking that took so much
of my time I was exhausted before I even started.

yes. that is trying to be clever...

.....I have been staying with your latest feedback today "Trying to be Clever"

This is the Water I have been swimming in all my Life. Why I took this on
as a way to get along with others on this Planet, "I am Perplexed?" to say the least,
Now I see it with sober eyes.

I can admit I was somewhat aware but the Arrogance, Lack of Humility,
Wanting to be Right The "TRYING" to be something, The cover up to
measure up.

The Mind Machine had all the power
Lots of excuses and momentary WANTS to distract myself from my real purpose.

Well I see how " Stupid" really operates this challenge
I would say it puts the finger firmly pointing at yourself
without demanding But asking of yourself.

I am beginning to hear the quiet whispers,
not coming from the Mind which are Blunt, Demanding and appear such Brilliant ideas ?
until you take them out into the real world.



So Interesting .........Thank you Sophie

I think you misunderstand why 'stupid' is so freeing and so powerful.

I am still practicing being present/ not present
Yesterday I failed completely. I was travelling when unexpectedly My dog become Ill, I could not attend an appointment my son needed help with an issue all happening in the same time frame.


I am not present to my complaining in my head !
I am still very much in the binary This will be the one to rein in.

The self concern, This one is a trigger for me. I really see
How this takes me out of the game. Into Entitlement
It really leads directly to misery didn’t wrestle this back until this morning.

Thank you Trish

yes. you have a hard time with this

A few days away from home visiting friends. No time to myself. I see how my husband influences my decisions. I didn’t get time to post when I had a good Wi-Fi as he demanded my time doing activities.

I would normally blame him, But as I am “ Raining it in “I am becoming less reactive, much less complaining and a little less miserable.

I can see I don’t explain to him what is important to me ahead of time so he knows I will need some time without interruption.

I make excuses for him that I really truth be told when I look are for myself because I think I am powerless. Huge entitlement horrible…

I did manage to catch one entitlement when I feel I have been “slighted “I managed to catch while it was happening my Husband who was complaining to listen to what he had to say without commentary in my head or justify or make wrong.

Nothing actually happened.

He was just talking in an angry disgruntled voice about something he was displeased with nothing to do with me, he was just making a lot of noise.

Hi Sophie -

My sister in law is visiting . Who not so long ago decided Not to talk to me because of a mis interpretation of events.

It’s easier to see on her my issue where she lashes out and makes the other wrong judges, Complains to everyone.
How she has been so ill treated no responsibility to her own actions in the event.


I see My issues are the same. Urg ! I feel cold. Not allowing
My mis interpretation The “Trying to be right “ to prove the opposite.

Am I going in the right direction with this ?
All the time fighting windmills and making myself sick ?

Thank you Trish

sorry Trish, but if you judge and you are, then you are going the wrong way
