Have you been keeping score?

Dear Reader,

Have you caught yourself using the words "I should" or "I have to" since reading the last Commander's Report?

Is it dawning on you, even just a little, how much of your day seems preordained by outside forces, and how much room there is for you to take more command of your life?

Coming to this awareness is a potent accelerator.

Regardless of what you might think, realizing that you don't always feel like the captain of your own ship is a wonderful thing. The reason is very simple. Every time you notice an outside influence that contradicts your inner truth and act upon it by clearing your inner space and looking for better-feeling thoughts, you redirect energy back to yourself that would otherwise be lost.

It's akin to realizing that your charger is not fully plugged into your phone and readjusting it so it can actually be recharged.

That's how significant it is to consciously fall back under your own influence.

​

​

As you know, life is a rainbow of experiences. Some of them are more triggering than others. For instance, there is a significant difference between running late to a meeting and getting fired. Both of these experiences have the right ingredients to shake you out of your captain's seat, but the way back under your own influence is the same. Why it appears more difficult in one case than the other depends on how attached you are to a circumstance and the weight of the beliefs that are connected to it.

Finding your centre and being under your own influence is deeply linked to recognizing and embracing your own inherent worth and value. For most people, being late does not offer the same challenge to their value and worth as being fired.

That's why practice and awareness are so crucial. The more you train yourself to recognize and savour the peace and steadiness of your own influence, the more constant your well-being will be, regardless of what is happening around you.

To help you along the way, I've created a brief meditation to help clear your physical, mental, and energy space, allowing you to return fully under your own influence.

I'd love to know what the experience is like for you. Feel free to reply to this email and share. I'm always happy to hear from you.

Enjoy the meditation and keep an eye out for my next Report where we'll dive into the realm of questions.

Big hug,

Reacting vs Feeling

Dear Reader, How do you feel? If you have followed the Olympics or watched interviews with people who have accomplished something great or heroic, you might have noticed that one of the first questions they get asked is: How does it feel? We have a natural eagerness to know and understand how people who stand out of the crowd and accomplish great things feel. A potent mixture of positive emotions such as pride, joy, victory, freedom, and accomplishment, reflected back to us, is intoxicating...

Dear Reader, Have you ever played this game where you try to spot odd things, like yellow cars on a long drive? Unless you live in New York City, where it snows yellow cabs, you probably don't see many yellow cars on the road. This is especially true in New Zealand's countryside. That didn't stop my kids and I from spotting nine different ones on our journey to Hamilton over the weekend! By an uncanny coincidence, we happen to leave home at just the right moment to see not just one, but two...

Dear Reader, As promised, let's dive into the subject of influence. Setting aside the paraphenalia of things we can ingest or use, let's broaden our perspective by considering the word 'influence' in a more general sense. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, influence is defined as the power or capacity to cause an effect in indirect or intangible ways. So to answer the question of what influence you are under, you need to look at what is influencing your decisions, behaviours, and...
