Is Giving Up the Solution? Focus on the Omnis for Strength

What do you do when you don’t feel like doing anything, or when you feel defeated? Do you get sucked into the vortex of negative thinking and find yourself wallowing in sorrow or complaining to others in order to not feel alone? Or, in order to make some sense of or justify your feelings? Does that actually change the situation for the better? Not usually!

So what can you do when nothing seems to be going your way and you don’t see a positive solution in sight? I know crawling in bed and hiding yourself under the covers sounds like a good idea, but does that work? Actually, I have had some great revelations while hiding my head in my pillows. The only distraction in there is your mind. If you have an active mind then you are usually running multiple scenarios through it—eventually to the one that gets you back out of bed (even if only to use the bathroom!). Even in that simple activity you can see that life is still moving and you are a fundamental part of existence whether you’re liking it or not.

“Courage doesn’t always roar . . . sometimes it’s the quiet voice at the end of the day whispering, ‘I will try again tomorrow.’” – Mary Anne Radmacher

So, when life seems extra tough I like to turn to the Omnis. Omni is the Latin prefix meaning “all.” I believe in a higher governing divine power that is supremely good and beautiful. So when you find it difficult to get back to a better state of mind try to remember the following:

Omnipresent: The presence of the beautiful and good everywhere, in all spaces and places, all at once. You can’t go anywhere or escape from the all-present power of consciousness. It is always within you and exists wherever you are. It is always consistent here and now, not yesterday, tomorrow or even later today, but right now. The presence of good is within you and surrounds you. You aren’t required to do anything to prove it exists because you are the proof of its existence.

“Your omnipresence is marvelous! I breathe and you enter me. I exhale and enter into you.” – Kaman Kojouri

Omnipotence: All powerful force, unlimited authority. No matter what the little mind wants to entertain, there is unlimited power available that propels us in the direction we must go. It is the eternal force that moves us to the next action. It is also unwavering strength, support, courage, decisiveness, energy and flow. Expanding consciousness allows this power to move you—even out from under those covers!

Omniscience: All knowing; all wise; infinite knowledge. You don’t have to have all the answers but you need to know that they already exist. Ideas are endless, as are the thoughts necessary to bring them to fruition. All that is required is to tune in and listen. Just knowing that a solution is already present can be enough to bring you back from the tunnel of doom and gloom. Once you see this, you also begin to see things you couldn’t before. Did this intelligence just come out of nowhere? No. It already existed, you just have to know it and be open to it. Then, you will see it.

That’s a lot of positive power to turn to when you feel lost, alone or afraid. Avoid repetition of negativity by replacing it with an Omni thought. Get outside and let the warm power of the sun cascade over you and feel the omnipresence of its energetic force. See the rays as infinite ideas coming at you ready to radiate into beauty and good. Watch the defeated feelings or desire to do nothing evaporate and see the light of wisdom and intelligence pushing you forward.

So, is giving up the solution? Yes! That is, if you’re talking about giving up the useless thoughts, the defeatist attitude, or things that don’t feed or motivate you.

There is no room for negative, downward-spiraling thinking when you are seeking a solution from falling into the trap of giving up. Mentally grab hold of those thoughts and put them on an imaginary shelf until you’ve had a talk with the Omnis. It will be all good!
