Action, Stillness, or Flow

When you’re unsure of what to do — either act, be still, or go with the flow.

One way or another, a clearer picture of what to do next will arise.

Action is a way of moving your reality around through personal will. And in taking action, you will consequently alter your environment and generate a new form of reality around you. This will directly lead to new options around you, which are different than the initial option that was available, for you to consider choosing when making your next move. After taking this said action, you will again have to decide, based on these new circumstances, whether to be still, go with the flow, or again act.

If you take another action, then you will alter your environment again — be it how people are behaving around you, where you are physically located (if you decide to physically move), or where things are arranged (if you move something in the environment). In doing this, another one of these three choices will arise for you to commit to.

If you are still, then your environment and the options around you will change due to the passing of time and the inevitable alterations that take place with that, and you will again be faced with a new set of circumstances that you will have to make decisions upon.

If you “go with the flow”, you take a temporary state of passivity, allowing the world to move you — be it your responses and behaviors to other “actors” in your environment, or you letting your environment move where you are physically located. In essence, going with the flow lets the world change around you and change what you are doing, instead of you immediately making a change through action, or be still and unmoved by the environment, while the environment moves around you. Eventually, through going with the flow, you will have a new decisions you have to make based on the new reality you allowed the world to create. You will again have to take action, be still, or go with the flow.

The world will evolve and carry on regardless of whether you “do” something or not. The key is for you to be conscious in what you’re creating or allowing to be created around you as you are faced with “dilemmas” or decisions, so that you can adjust most appropriately based on what you value for yourself, others and the world in which you live.
