Good morning. Consciousness, a fascinating concept. I never really thought about it that much, but there’s a thing I grew up with. I guess everybody grows up with it. It’s somebody has authority and they tell you what to do or what to say or how to act. And you say, you are the authority figure in your head.

And you say, okay, I’ll do what you. And as you grow and evolve, you find out that there’s something really wrong about that, in a sense, that there should be something more all inclusive about following somebody with authority, meaning, more motivation. And then I heard about this thing called consciousness. And what it has to do with is there’s a knowing. It’s not because somebody told you something, but it’s something you have deep inside of you. It’s like you go inside yourself and you find that authority.

And that’s a word, that’s a meaning for the word consciousness. Consciousness means that there is a way to be convinced of an idea, a decision that you’re going to make that will withstand so much of criticism, self judgment. Is this really right? Should I do it? I don’t know. And then you say, wait a minute.

Do I not know or do I really know? And that’s the beauty of consciousness. It’s that finding that core inside of you that says this is true. And nothing that’s happening on the outside can take that away from you. And when you’re motivated with that, there’s a peace inside of you where you don’t feel that you’re giving up something. There’s something about surrendering to an authority outside of yourself, which is important and essential at times, but at the same time, it doesn’t feel like it’s complete enough to make the kind of inner decisions you have to make.

So trust in that inner voice. Go to it. It’s in your heart. God is there to reveal it to you. And when you find out what you really know and you’re conscious, fully conscious of that, you’re unstoppable.
