Decisions Based on Thoughts or Soul
Not every yes or opportunity is the right move. What is the difference between decisions made from the mind or soul for life choices.
Not every yes or opportunity is the right move. This piece explores the difference between decisions made from the mind or the soul, and how this plays out in life choices.
The idea of stepping into a new life, such as moving, traveling, or starting again, often feels exciting. Sometimes it’s a dream you’ve carried for years. Other times, it comes in fast, like a sudden push to begin again. But not every push comes from the soul. Some come from thought. And not every thought leads us where we want to go.
There is a distinct difference in internal connections. The energy pulls us with force, pushing a “trigger” which is part of the answer. Part of the solution.
When it comes from thoughts, it makes sense. Your planning will be biased.
Your mind will become judgmental based on a closed mindset.
You may be wondering, how can we have a closed mindset when we are spiritually growing?
The personal journey leads us down a path of many, many layers of the soul’s life and our human experiences. It takes time. A new kind of patience that requires putting ourselves first without the old messages rumbling in the background.
For example, if a dream was to travel the world and someone close to you said you don’t deserve to go, or you can’t afford to go, it sticks in the subconscious mind. Hides in there. Waiting until you reach that stage of layering.
Whether it is obvious or subtle, a trigger is set off by something related to the areas, beliefs, or suppressed emotions. Out of sight, out of mind, does not mean it’s completely gone. If your dream of traveling was stamped out by people you trusted, the underlying comments return in your memories. Once the memory adapts, the thoughts and feelings return. Even if we have healed them, they are still stored internally.
Here is a crucial point in understanding why they continue, and it is never about punishment or any form of sabotage. The universe is always offering options. When we have repeating memories, they can consume us - our thoughts, if we aren’t aware of what is happening. They will scramble our final decisions, particularly if you’ve found yourself going back and forth. Everything is returned so that you can choose.
What the past offered, including beliefs, and what the unseen, yet felt-current route brings.
“Thoughts guide with bias while soul-led decisions guide within the body, in the spirit.”
It makes sense to go to a foreign area and choose based on what you think works. Those thoughts will begin to emerge as you make the plan. Research and find the correct Location, Organization, or whatever you are engulfed in to get it.
If the nagging is about affordability, you may be pulled toward something that seems right to you, but it may not connect with your soul.

Have you felt the pull?
When our inspiration comes, when ambitions rise from the soul, it is not the same internal feeling as when we follow our thoughts.
Our thoughts of waking up on the coastal shores of a new destination can lead us to specific places or things because it makes sense.
Each Layer of our souls’ journey takes us farther to revealing everything about the unique imprint you, your soul, carries in each experience. Each person. Our own part in them.
If there are 12 layers to move through to get to the ultimate version of you - your soul’s destined plan, it flows with precision.
Layer one on the bottom will reveal something to raise to layer two.
Layer two carries (2) discoveries, truths, about you, and brings in the third, following the same process.
My point is, every layer carries something that changes your way of thinking. With each one comes a sensational understanding of inner connections, leading to a new perception.

Anyone who was told they couldn’t do (fill in the blank) is now in a position to not only discard those words (thoughts) deeply burrowed in our thoughts, actions, and reactions.
Now, they believe, no, they know they can.
The answer doesn’t always come as a thought. It’s not a feeling either. It’s a signal. An energetic point inside the body. A subtle ping, a shift, a knowing. That’s how the soul speaks. No drama, no fear. Just a direction with options.
The soul doesn’t mess with anything it isn’t meant to be involved in, but that doesn’t mean we stop. We also know the soul is the key to everything about us; it is the all-knowing part of us, as a being. It is we who choose to return to unsavory, unhealthy parts of our lives, from all lifetimes, not just the current one.
Making the right decision about how to move life forward is the choice. The soul guides as we’ve described, and yet the mind seems to say, “Come back.”
Look in the mirror, close your eyes, or do what feels comfortable for you to gain clarity from these questions:
Ask yourself where it hits inside.
Ask yourself which chakra is being pushed.
Ask yourself if you can see harmony through the changes.
