Hello and Welcome
to the Way of the Emotional Warrior Podcast.
My name is Kai Ehnes and today we will be answering the question of: How
can you create the One?
Oh I am sure
this sounds absolutely crazy. What do you mean you can create someone. Well,
first off this not so much about anything physical but much moreso along the
emotional and interior life. So let’s get started. Last week we spoke about
having to do some emotional and spiritual work within yourself so that you can
meet the One.
Think of it
this way. Imagine that you are trying to find the right radio station. Back in
the day, radios had a knob that you turned and this sort of wacky red or white
needle would move left or right. Inside the radio this shifted the receiver to
be able to pick up the various frequencies of different radio stations. There
were 2 bands for the public. AM and FM. You gently turned the know until you
found a station, then you had to turn the dial back and forth until had the
best reception. Of course, if this was inside of a car you had to do it again
shortly because you were moving which changed the reception. Good, if you did it right, you were rewarded
with a great song and clear reception. In pother words you had to do some work
(dial turning) the radio station did its job by sending signals. Connection
established.
Here is how
it worked for me. In another time I was a singled dad of two boys. They kept me
quite busy, so dating was sparse. What I found is what I think many people
experience which is that dating was fun but like the radio example, didn’t have
the right reception. You know when you are scrolling through various TV
channels but simply can’t find anything that grabs your attention. Sometimes
you even end up watching something you don’t even really care about but you
simply don’t have the energy to ramp up for doing something else?
That’s what
dating was like. Very nice people but I already had a very busy and established
life.
So I took
some time off from it all and started to do the work. I had a large whiteboard
and started to write on it what I wanted in someone else. I came up with a good
list of traits. For a while the list simply sat there. Periodically I would add
or remove something. I would alter the order of the traits. Then it started to
take on a life of itself.
What
happened was life changing in numerous ways. One evening I was looking over the
list and the universe sent me the idea that what I was asking goes in both
directions. Was I actually living the characteristics of the list? I mean
honestly, is it fair to ask anything of someone else if you don’t exhibit those
traits yourself. Here is an example: Is it ok to demand that another person be
loyal and not cheat but you would cross that line if you felt like it?
So, I gave
myself the task of doing an inventory of each trait. How solid was I an any and
all of those traits that I thought The One should exhibit. There were some
moments of honesty I had to look into. This is what I mean by doing the Work.
In all of the different areas of your personality, where are you out of
balance? Then you step in with honesty and integrity, look at your short
comings or excesses and seek help to address them.
This became
a lot of fun. I had quite a bit of work to do. It has been ongoing every day.
What became clear was this: If you want the One you first have to Be the One.
That means you do the work which is like turning the radio dial. You adjust
your self (the radio) by adjusting your frequency reception and suddenly the
right station will appear. In this case the right person emerged. I knew the
universe was conspiring for this to happen. The events of my meeting My One
were pretty wild. That will be another story for another time.
What about
the kids you might ask. Well, one day when I was walking to my...
