Hello beautiful humans my name is Darius and in this video I'm going to share with you a framework that has helped me in so many key moments where I felt like I was stuck.
So many moments where I felt like there was like an upper limit.
To possibilities,
To my consciousness,
And I was like,
How come I can't get past this?
What's happening?
Why is this pattern repeating?
I call it the four levels of consciousness,
Four levels of creator consciousness to be specific.
I was reluctant to put the creator part there because I thought maybe there'd be some of you that would say,
Oh no,
Not me.
I'm not a creator.
Let me stop you right there.
I want to offer up that all of us are creators.
I am a professional artist.
Yes.
I've dedicated the last 20 years of my life of creativity and artistry and like helping people express themselves.
Yes.
And.
.
.
I challenge anyone that says they are not creative.
All of us are actively coming up with stories about our lives.
For example,
The story that starts with I am not creative.
Is itself a story.
The irony,
Right?
So you think I am not creative is a story and stories are creative.
So if you don't like that story,
Maybe tell a different story.
And it might get you to a different place or a different life or a different.
Feeling at least.
Okay,
Let's come back to the framework.
So four levels of creator consciousness.
The purpose of this is for me,
Immediately it helps me identify when I'm stuck.
Okay,
Let's start.
This is the first one,
You're probably familiar with it.
It's a very popular one.
Happening to me.
I'm not gonna lie to you.
I teach this stuff,
I know this stuff,
I believe in this stuff,
And I still get stuck in happening to me all the time.
The fallacy is that it's linear.
You figure it out,
You get to this fourth level and you never look back.
Not how it works.
We cycle through all the time,
But if you understand the framework,
You can cycle out very quickly because this one has some comfort because we.
Blame everyone else for our lives.
None of it is our fault.
But in exchange for that comfort,
We have to pay a price.
And the price is we give up our power.
We give up our power.
And so I do my best to stay away from this one as much as possible because victim consciousness It,
It,
It.
Snowballs so quickly and the whole world starts to feel like it's working against us.
You know what I'm talking about.
You probably have experienced someone in your life that spends a lot of time in that blaming,
Complaining space,
Or perhaps yourself at some point in your life.
I was that person for sure.
And so the jump from one to two is massive.
Happening for me.
This,
The theme here,
Where this is victim,
The theme here is trust.
Even though we logically don't understand all of the details,
We trust.
That there is some sort of benevolence to the universe and that it is conspiring in incredible ways behind the scenes.
Allow us to step into our highest good,
Highest self.
Okay,
Happening for me.
I don't get it.
That was really hard.
That really sucked.
But I just trust and believe that there's some reason,
Some gift in this really hard situation.
That doesn't mean you bypass the feelings.
That doesn't mean you like everything's good all the time.
That's not what we're talking about.
Feel the feels.
Right?
You can't skip that step.
And.
.
.
Once we feel the feels,
We acknowledge that there's some sort of benevolent force working on our behalf.
Now the next one.
Is a powerful jump.
This one acknowledges,
OK,
So if I'm not a victim and I believe and trust that there's things working all over the universe to help me step into my highest good.
Then I'm going to step in,
Lean in,
And take action.
I'm going to take action so that I can start to actively play a role in creating the world,
The life,
The existence that I want.
This one is exciting.
This one is electric.
This one is powerful.
I love happening by me.
I love it so much.
And.
If you're not careful,
It becomes a trap.
My fists clinch and I have strength and I have power and I have control.
And if you clench too hard.
.
.
And you try to get too much control.
You burn out.
You burn out.
That's why the fourth level is so important.
Happening through me.
Happening through me.
Acknowledges that I'm allowed.
To let go.
I'm allowed to let go.
This is all about a sacred surrender.
This acknowledges that we can't control everything.
That we will do the best we can.
We know things are working in our behalf.
We know we have power and we show up.
We don't just sit around meditating,
But we take action.
And Once we've done everything we can.
.
.
We let go and trust.
We bless and release.
This is the paradigm of fully committed.
But attached to nothing.
Because we acknowledge that we can't control everything.
We acknowledge that we are a channel.
We are a vessel.
For creativity,
For inspiration,
For light,
For love to work through us.
Through us.
Happening to me,
Happening for me,
Happening by me.
Happening.
Through me.
Now again.
It's not linear.
I jump back and forth all the time.
But I can spend more time in these.
When I am aware.
Three pieces of paper I have beside me in my meditation chair.
That have things that are so important to me that I want to look at them before and after I meditate.
Three pieces of paper.
One of those pieces of paper has this.
Has this.
Because it's that important.
Is that important for me to have some sort of framework,
Some sort of anchor to quickly be like,
Where am I?
What frequency am I at?
Imagine how powerful that can be.
You know,
To be able to measure what frequency of consciousness you are at.
Thank you so much for listening.
I hope this framework brings some sort of clarity,
Some sort of interest,
Some sort of excitement to your life.
And if it doesn't,
That's okay too.
Feel free to adapt it.
My name's Darius.
And I'll see you next time.
