Move Back to Love

11/9/11 at 11:00 am | 35 Comments   by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

Notice each day whether you are choosing to live in fear or love. Fear can keep you disconnected from the loving presence inside of you. Causing fear is a tactic of the ego, whether it be your own ego or the world’s ego. The world’s ego is a reflection of individual ego power and the amount of fear that is active. Fear is present when we forget that we are a part of God’s divine design. Learning to experience authentic love means abandoning ego’s insistence that you have much to fear and that you are in an unfriendly world. You can make the decision to be free from fear and doubt and return to the brilliant light of love that is always with you. Who you really are is that unclouded love.

Here are some ideas for bringing love rather than fear into your life:

  • Remind yourself that God created you in perfect love that is changeless and eternal. Your body is changing, as is your mind, so you are not that body or mind. You were created as a spirit that is pure love. That is where you want to keep your attention focused.
  • Forgive yourself and welcome love back into your life. When you can do this, a kind of balancing occurs. Rather than atoning for faults with guilt, you are more committed to promoting joy and service. You will begin to do what you originally came here to do.
  • Notice the acts of kindness other people do rather than their shortcomings. This is how the loving presence views you. We are all good, decent, loving souls who occasionally get lost. When you can focus on the good in another and hold that in your mind, you are acting from your higher self. This can help dissipate fear and anger.
  • Remind yourself of how much you have to give away and of how precious and valuable your giving is. You have the same force running through you that allows the planets to move, the earth to turn, the seeds to sprout, and the flowers to open. There is not a separate God for each person. There is one universal intelligence flowing through all of us.
  • Accept that you are enough. When ego begins trying to attract you toward fear, say loudly, “I am enough!” You do not need to be anything you are not. You do not need to prove yourself. You do not need to indulge your ego with fears and to keep your real self at a distance. “I am enough” affirms that you choose to love and chase doubts and fears away.

    I am indeed enough! It never ceases to amaze me that I always hear exactly what I am supposed to hear each day. Although I struggle listening to my own heart, my needs are always met through other great sources of love, like you. Every happiness your way!

    Accept that you are enough. When ego begins trying to attract you toward fear, say loudly, I am enough! I really love this part of the content; in may case one of the greatest battles of li is the EGO, among others of course. I hope you are ok . a big hug to Ram dass and do not forget to write your autobiography please. NAMASTE Antonio

    Each of us has so much to give and there is nothing standing in the way to stop us, except ourselves. You help us recognize that, Dr.Dyer. We can move the obstacles of ourselves with the spirits of ourselves. Life is so very full of wonder and beauty and is meant to be shared.

    Thank you Wayne! I am inspired by your blogs and all of the comments. Learning and growing through the wisdom of the collective experience.....reminded of a card I received with a confucious quote "wherever you go, go with all of your heart!"

    How timely this message is in my life. Apparently, the Universe knows a lot about timing! I've recently begun my own blog, and I mention a passage from Wisdom of the Ages in one of them. That brought me to your site today. Thank you!

    I love how you emphasized the importance of noticing acts of kindness. I recently ran across a Facebook game that encourages the performance of good deeds and acts of kindness, A Better World. It's fun and I always leave the game feeling better!!

    What a timely article! Wayne, I just started reading your books, and they just resonate with me. I read about your leukemia diagnosis, and I wish you the best. I've been reading about ketogenic diets and how they've been treating cancer patients with them since the early 20th century.

    Thank you so much for the wisdom. We each need to hear about living from love over and over again until we "get it" on that deep level and begin to live it every moment of the day. Blessings for you good and powerful ongoing work Dr. Dyer. I love you and the good you have brought to our world. Many blessings.

    I have been reading to Wayne Dyer for years. He has mentioned many other authors in his work. He speaks a lot about Carlos Cantaneda and I wanted to read some of his work, but I notice that he has a ton of stuff out there. As someone largely unfamiliar with his work, which one of his books would be best to start with?
