The Butt Stops Here

Today I want to share a story about a character that sometimes takes up space in my head.... Yeahbutt...

Yeahbutt has no sex, is completely ageless but can and will get into our head...

Yeahbutt may have been programmed in during early childhood or later in life...

It has no creed, color or race... it just picks and chooses what will work in its best possible interest.
It has many faces, appearing anywhere and everywhere using a different facade to suit its need.
It usually, but not always, appears to be pessimistic rather than optimistic.  Occasionally it blindsides you with a false sense of security.

The most important thing to remember is everyone has a Yeahbutt...

EVERYONE experiences this from time to time... so don’t pretend that Yeahbutt is not within you... it’s a human thing, so get over yourself.

Yeahbutt has a goal... a focus if you like... to create ambiguity ... scepticism... mistrust... which is not a bad thing if we implement reason... understand the motive.... create reasonable doubt if you like....

The complexity with Yeahbutt is they can and will completely take over your focus... it is the conversation where it answers anything we may ask in the manner that befits them most.

Yeahbutt can ... and will place us into the zone of unlikelihood... indicating the doubtfulness that it invites is the truth.  Letting mistrust and disbelief fill our head with more reservations and reason not to... than the “just do it” anyway conclusion.
 
Here are some of the more popular phrases Yeahbutt uses... starting with its own name thus empowering the words even more

Yeahbutt
I can’t do this because....
I am not good enough...
What’s the point...
This is a waste of my energy....

And of course I am sure, because Yeahbutt has at least once visited you in your lifetime... you have your own phrases to add to this never ending inventory.

So... are you ready to let Yeahbutt go?  Release this alter ego within you? 

Are you ready to stop wrestling with the time consuming unconstructive outcomes and objectives it offers you?

What if I were to tell you that right now you can give Yeahbutt their marching orders?  Would you do it? 

Let’s step back a moment, because you need to be in full awareness, this is the buyer beware declaration.

If you think, feel or expect this to be an easy transition... a “given” as so many expect... don’t even bother reading any further.... because Yeahbutt is STILL very much in your psyche.. sorry... I  don’t mean to be unkind or heartless.  That is the fact you are currently struggling with and will continue to deal with until you are ready to liberate yourself.

To achieve this you REALLY have to want it, to offer yourself the commitment.... the promise.... be dedicated to the alternative reality.

What is the name of Yeahbutt’s nemesis?  Mine is called Yessacan...

Yessacan is there standing on the side lines rooting for me... it comes to me when I doubt myself.... it reassures me that whatever I want is possible when I believe in myself....

There is no hesitation .... no misgivings.... just a blanket of hope that wraps itself around my shoulders... reminding me that occasionally there are dark moments that will want to fill that void....
Yessacan is like a burst of brightness that gets infused within me...the doubts dissipate ... as if by magic.... and the aspirations Yessacan creates, intensifies.  It manifests glowing within my reality . Yessacan opens up every single day... like a ray of sunshine that touches a darkened room....bringing about clarity.

Both these characters are a part of me... as they are a part of you.  Each of us, within our sacred soul, have a choice.... and that is to decide which one to cultivate... nurture and  grow within our vibrational frequency.

Choosing Yessacan takes work.... and Yeahbutt will keep popping in from time to time.... to throw you off your end game.... that’s its job, its focus... it’s the other side of the coin.

In time, you will create your own way to deal with Yeahbutt, it’s a given. 

Initially when it rises up within you, acknowledge it with a “thanks for sharing” reply.  This inner response, let’s it have it’s say but without giving it any power. Throw it at me Yeahbutt, and I choose not to catch it.  So, it will intensify, and throw something more.... until whatever is thrown at me.... and that day does come.... when I no longer heard them.

Instead that once empty space......that abyss of doubt was replaced and replenished with positive validations, confirming and validating, even if from time to time, I still wasn’t sure. It encourages me with optimistic words, ideals.  It is the complete reverse to Yeahbutt. 

Sacred mantras that I had almost forgotten become second nature.  Now, I can even be in the presence of the mind chattering monkeys.  Even when they are still trying to convince me to revert back to the place that they still reside in with Yeahbutt verbal communication like
Yeahbutt... it is easier for you
Yeahbutt ... you are different
Yeahbutt... Yeahbutt.... and more Yeahbutt incantations...

If you are ready to listen... to step into this newness.... then do it...If you are not, that is okay... I cannot walk this journey for you.  I can, because I choose, offer up alternative options.... substitutions if you like... but as I shared earlier, this will be your work in progress... and only YOU can do it...

Here are Three Yessacan Mandates

1.Switch Off Media
This is the easiest of them all.  Going down the rabbit hole is exactly where they want you to be. It is their goal to offer little or no good news. Cut the pessimistic umbilical cord and feel the uplifting shift that occurs instantly.
2.Bye Bye Negative Nellies/Nigels
They can & will come close to you.  They disguise themselves as friends, family, colleagues, neighbours & their aim is to share in a downbeat way.  Don’t interact, smile and walk away, especially in the early stages of your transition. 
3.Fill The Void
What makes you happy?  What lifts you up?  It is different for everyone so infuse and soak up whatever works best for you.  Positive mantras, music, words, remember not one size fits all. Acknowledge what makes you feel about yourself.  Fill that abyss with anything that helps raise your vibrational frequency.
 
Most of all, when you are ready, wear your Yessacan badge of honor with respect and humility.
