The Discipline of Desire

Passion and desire thrive with sensual discipline. Get excited, but keep an open mind. No matter what you may be thinking, your intuition is another perspective.  Sensing is the intuitive reality check that gives desire another angle.  Sometimes we call it 'common sense.' Sometimes it's  'a rush'. We hear, see, taste, touch and smell and feel everything. We get excited, focused, arroused and put on-guard.  Iconic values are intuitive discipline that keeps us moving forward.  Like timing, intuition is a sense, not a thought. Like seeing,  that gut feeling is a gentle powerful discipline.  A nudge can be an eye-opener. Like our five senses, being aware of intuition is a choice. Responding is 'common sense'. Do the right thing. It will gratify some people and astonish the rest. #MarkTwain   Satisfaction and excitement are natural intuitive rhythms and melody that drive common sense. Intuition is inner navigation that gives you the balance to power passions. It is the discipline of desire. Passions are either insight or sensual delight. Sensing focuses our minds. Intuition guides instant insights that refresh priorities. The idea is to move forward smoothly. Every day, nuggets of humanity sparkle with humor, kindness and compassion. Options come fast. Intuition is the way of using what you sense to get what you need. It is the backbone of character and inner valor. Iconic values that you feel with your mind - are points of courage, curiosity, dignity, prudence and patience. Instinctively you focus. Intuitive sensual thinking continually feeds mind, body and protects soul. Sensing direction and purpose brings grounding and excitement that shows options where fears of darkness are whirled into nothing. Good timing is rhythm that's intuitive. Desire is a dance on the balance beam of Life. Soul music is our song. Feeling rhythm is collaboration with the unimaginable. Dance with heart. You will find what you want.   “ The discipline of desire is the background of character. ”#JohnLocke

Simple skills, like noticing what we see or taste, touch, hear or smell, are intuitive muscles that connect with the powerful balance of desire and discipline.

We explore who we are to answer passions and satisfy desire. The quest is our birthright. Choices we make, are our own. Sensual living is a blend of splendor and responsibility. It's doing what feels right with dignity, humor and respect.

If you think with your senses, you focus and feel vibrant. This simple exercise is the key to survival and inner harmony.  Life is amazing.

Sensing transparently guides timing and self-awareness on the way to satisfaction.
Talk less, sense more.

Glitter

All that is gold does not glitter,

Not all those who wander are lost;

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by the frost. #JRTolkien 

Gold is a soft, pliable metal that doesn't resist change. Sometimes it glitters. Other times, gold is heavy, gets rubbed the wrong way with unsavory passions and greed, and it turns cheap. Pick up what glitters.

Life glitters. The thrill of 'opportunity' can be a rude awakening.  Deep roots like dignity and curiosity keep us clear about what's real.  Our senses are energy portals to active compassion that stimulates dreams and highlights priorities. Insights reveal boundaries. Thriving takes a plan and action. We  need to stay safely between structure and serendipity. Intuitive strategies, like curiosity and courage, bring shine  of perspective to show the way.  

A nugget of pure gold shines from your heart. Notice energy you sense. Use intuitive strategies  like curiosity, courage and patience to enter the golden light of balance. Opportunity surrounds you. Recognize the depth your awareness. Share dreams.  Value your time. What matters are simple things like food, kindness, health and love. We don't need laws to define who we are. Love, kindness, music and courage are spiritual glitter.  

Gold glitters in in almost every color. It is the sunset and moonrise of our emotions. In that in-between space where we exhale and begin again, follow the light of integrity and determination.   Trust what you sense. Allow priorities and potential to come into focus.  Love happens.

Today, an artist sitting next to me on the Q train designed a cool graphic for a t-shirt on his phone. It was a crown sitting jocularly on the head of a magic moment of joy. In the space of two stops he told me he hoped other people spending time on  phones on the train were also doing something creative. Taking advantage of the gift of time matters. 

Life is a journey. Change and chocolate are always part of my life. Sometimes I run out of chocolate, but the dance of change doesn't stop. 

Music is a portal. Listen with your heart and connect with your answers. Intuition is there.

Change and Curiosity

If you're gonna make a change..operate from a new belief that says life happens not to me but for me. #TonyRobbins 

Destiny is the result of your thinking. How you think is your choice.

• See, hear, taste, touch, feel and inhale to recognize options. That's thinking with your senses. 
• Be curious to get perspective and understanding; that's feeling with your mind.

Most things we do are habits. Habits zone us out, numb our senses and make us feel trapped. Curiosity kicks open doors and wakes us up. Curiosity connects us with presence. Living sensually builds energy that enables us to flow with  change. 

To take control of your life, be curious. It's not cool to memorize answers, because stuff keeps changing. Instead, it's cool to think for yourself. What do you experience? What do you notice? What do you value? How do you your choices feel?

Change takes dignity, focus, self-discipline and courage. These are intuitive strategies. Sense them and feel your advantage. Then, leap for it.

Find new solutions for old nagging problems. Use dignity and determination to guide your thinking. Use courage and your 6 senses to make new choices. That's how to create change now. That's sensual thinking.

If something's bugging you about the way your life is going, be curious. Notice what doesn't feel right. 

• Curiosity is your personal tool of focus. 
• Focus is your source for finding understanding and effective communication.

Being curious and honest with yourself at the same time is intuitive thinking.  Honesty with yourself is the bottom line of self-discipline. It means you trust yourself.  That's power. 

• Change that matters takes focus, self-discipline and courage. Your cellular dignity connects with courage.Use your sensual insights found with curiosity, self-discipline and courage to find your advantage.

Curious is being open to the unexpected, the untried and to the failures. It's questioning the status quo. Curiosity is brilliant because it sets no limits or expectations. Be brilliant.

When we change the way we think, things change. Open up to your senses and connect with what you notice. The big picture is bigger than you think and there is a fresh way to solve what's bothering you.

Stay free, be curious about how it would feel to put the problem away for an hour. Then, envision your life differently.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete. ~ Richard Buckminster Fuller 

Live Sensually, Make Choices that Feel Good.

 

Little Mix, Change Your Life
