The power of the mind overcome me yesterday when I had to perform a birthday song. I've performed multiple times on stage bigger. But in the intimate and personal setting, my mind was louder than my heart and I didn't do my best. I projected a lot of fear and worry into the future and it materialised. So much so I have forgotten to give myself love and courage and confidence instead. All the practices I've done prior was no match for the power of the mind that had gone loose. Power without harness is destructive.
Nevertheless, I was complimented to have great energy throughout the night. And that was because I started out the night with clear intention and to open up myself to the people at a party. I walked up to every person that I didn't know and introduced myself. That must have opened up a door or broken down a wall that led me to have ease around a new environment. Interesting awareness.
Today I saw the opposite of going into a meeting without full alignment. Not that the meeting went wrong because it actually went well. But I knew it could have been better had there been alignment. The reason why we needed alignment was also the reason why there was no alignment in the first place. There were too many different parties involved, separated by time and purpose and responsibility. But if every party came together first before going into the meeting with the final piece of the puzzle, the result probably would have came to an agreement sooner and smoother.
