Go in flow. Follow the intuitive sense of knowing that comes with being in flow. Within a state of balancing upon the tightrope so confidently. When this strikes you, roll with it, use it well and remove the notion of directing it… Go where it ebbs and flows. If flow takes you to working on a side project, then so be it… Do so. There is a reason for it and that will be made clear to you in hindsight if you reflect and observe. Reflection is the focussed observation of past actions, decisions, thoughts, feelings… trekking the old paths that your energy moved through to bring you to this present. That which your present is built from your future, you are given the gift of understanding once it has passed. The past is there as to provide lessons, it dictates the present or so called ‘future’ actions to the extent to which you have recognised and integrated those lessons.
Observe, simply. For that is the baseline, observation outside of judgement… Peace.
