Wanting something you don’t have is a quiet confirmation that it’s missing. You’re reinforcing the belief that you are without, that you are lacking something – it’s not yours, and you’re just not meant to have it. When you keep telling yourself, even subtly, that you’re missing something essential, you start to internalise the idea that you’re not worthy of it. And the problem with that is, even if a reflection of that thing does show up in your reality, you won’t be able to fully receive it. You’ll question it, push it away, or feel like it’s not really for you, because deep down you never believed you deserved it in the first place. It’s a loop. We are whole, and we create separation and perceive lack. Then we start wanting. But the wanting only confirms the lack, and beneath it, a belief that we’re not enough, or don’t deserve the thing we desire. Eventually we realise the thing we wanted was never really the point. It was just a reflection of that belief. And when we see that, we realise we don’t actually need the thing. We’re already whole. And so the cycle continues.
The reason someone can’t understand something (mental, intellectual, behavioural, emotional, psychological, moral, spiritual, etc) is usually because they haven’t grasped the underlying structure. When we see the sequence within the mind, we start to harness control over its operating system, gaining the ability and confidence to reprogram it to our preferred setting. These cycles are not flaws, they’re patterns we haven’t yet recognised. In any area of life, our comprehension arises when the mind maps out the order or cycle of operations. Once we internalise the patterning and bring it into awareness, we can reshape how we think and respond. So, imagine yourself as the coder behind the screen, projecting your consciousness into this reality. By learning to navigate the inner operating system, we can become the architect of our own mind and create from a place of abundance and love, rather than lack.
