When you don’t know what to do, what should you do? May I
suggest you stand still? This isn’t the same as doing nothing.
Doing nothing is the act of someone who feels helpless, without
power, confused by what they see, deafened by what they hear, burdened by what they
feel. The mind ceases to creatively manage
the bombardment of incoming information.
Emotions become muddled, forcing retreat into inactivity. Fear, rising like a stratus cloud, brings
inability to settle on a course of action.
In standing still you allow your senses, rather than your
intellect to speak to you. How many times
have you sensed what to do, not done it and later said “I knew I should have
done that” or spoken about the gut feeling you had? Intellect will rationale things away. Standing still results in alertness and
readiness to take the right step towards the outcome on the horizon. Your heightened awareness brings sensitivity
to the atmosphere, and promptness in dealing with whatever comes next.
Standing in this stillness doesn’t mean that everything
will fall into place just as you want. But it will cause you, in your response to it,
to be controlled.
