Consciously Create
Your Life Part II
(Editors’ note: this is a follow up article to Bill Lamond’s article “Consciously Create Your Life” in the Jan/Feb edition of The Wave. To read his first article, check out our “Issue Archive” at TheWaveHolisticJournal.com)
For many years, I followed Sri Sathya Sai Baba, the most publicly miraculous guru in India. He was the one I had been looking for. When I first read about him, I cried. I was so happy that, after what seems like lifetimes, my search was over. I knew that I would follow him forever.
One day, about ten years later, I was meditating and suddenly I felt Baba’s presence in the room with me. He said, right there beside me, “You have got
to stop following me!” I was stunned. He went on and said, “If you keep following me, you will never become what I am. I want you to grow up and become what I am.” As I sat with this one-of-a-kind communication, I realized that the ways I saw myself as a student were over and I was to become a master teacher in my own right, with my own Way and my own creations of – I didn’t even know what.
Twenty-five years later, I am the inventor of
the only system that I know of in the world that is based on Opportunity; the state after Possibility that Werner Erhard and, people like him, opened. Opportunity, according to Mr. Erhard, is the way you operate when you know your Possibility is real and truly possible; when you stop having to create Possibility over and over, and you start to fulfill your Possibility by contributing your full pleasure to whatever it is you are committed to – an almost unknown state in this culture, where we are all supposed to endlessly “work harder” or “fight for” what we desire.
After inquiring two years into what Opportunity could actually look like, one day I realized that if
I were living in Opportunity, I would live my life as
a series of Irresistible Offers, which would be so naturally a pleasure that all I could say was “yes.”
A radical idea!
by Bill Lamond
I continued my inquiry and created the True
Self, Its Natural Genius, and True Result; the three distinctions of being, doing and having that allow me to think as a person who lives in his pleasure. Many more pieces began to fit together that would allow me to revise my entire “personal operating system”; like upgrading “Human Being” to “Human Being 2.0”, so that I could be a person who could authentically live in my pleasure as a contribution to all.
I experienced a dawning and continuing awareness that living a life that is a pleasure, that includes you and everyone, is one of the most masterful things you could do; your life and its pleasure a contribution to all.
So how do you develop an “operating system” that will work for you? First, you say what is true for you in your own experience. Then test it out by creating
a model with its own principles and methodology for living that truth, and a technology for altering the way you think. This will allow you to genuinely live your truth.
This way of doing things is not so different from how Microsoft or Apple creates a new personal computer operating system, every few years, designed to take you into a new future, with new tools to help you evolve new skills and accomplish things you could not accomplish with previous operating systems.
Since I developed this outline to create one’s own way of living one’s truth, thousands of people have used it to create their own unique operating systems, gaining personal freedom and developing personal responsibility at the highest level.
When is it YOUR turn to stop following, and become a leader like Louise, Werner, Guruji, Tony, Lazaris, Carolyn Myss and other recognized thought leaders?
