[IMPORTANT EDIT: I just want to be clear before I go to the important quote below. I don't think people are 7s. Anyone I choose to love and care about is a 10. But situations can be 7s. I am thinking that it is important to release situations that are 7s and give them the space to become 10s later, or simply do whatever they need to do. People aren't 7s! People are 10s!]
"When we’re tolerating a 7, we block connections to 9s and 10s. Life can’t help but notice when you’re saying yes to a 7. It’s waiting on you to say no to that 7 before it can bring you anything better.
Tolerating a 7 will induce you to lower your vibe to become a match for that 7. You can’t cling to a 7 and seriously intend a 9 or 10 to show up. I noticed this effect in myself as I felt some resentment towards the hassles of dealing with my online social life. Feeling resentment only attracts more experiences that give rise to resentment. I certainly experienced plenty of that. Now that this resentment is gone, I feel much more optimistic socially, and I keep seeing evidence that the people around me are picking up on this too."
After reading this post, I realized that what I am doing is releasing all the 7s in my life, everywhere.
If there's a 7, it's going.
I'm also inviting everyone and everything to show me how it/they are actually 8s or better. I'm curious to see what happens, here.
