Stop Crying at the Musicians: Why Radical Responsibility Dictates Your Next Move The rhythm of the world just changed under your feet, and you are still out here trying to dance yesterday’s routine. Too many of our people are locked in a spiritual temper tantrum. We see economic ground shifting, family dynamics fracturing, and systemic currents turning against us, and our immediate, reflexive reaction is to panic, fold our arms, and cry foul. We point fingers at the band, demand the comfortable tunes of the past, and when we inevitably trip over our own feet, we retreat into the suffocating corners of blame, shame, and guilt. We act like wounded spectators in our own lives, waiting for an outside hand to change the playlist.

Do you practice using it or do you just keep it in your sheath? Your Invisible sword needs to be used on a regular basis in your battles of life. you must harness your techniques and constantly practice with it. You must keep it oiled and sharp, and ready for action.

The dangers of your mind are very similar to that of a sword. Because like a sword the mind cuts both ways. It can either cut you if used improperly, or cut your opponent. We have to constantly practice using our mind, and like with a sword develop techniques that are effective. For example what thoughts (strikes) are you throwing out into the world. Many of us constantly produce cutting blows upon ourselves by producing negative thoughts. We destroy ourselves long before our enemies can by throwing self destructive thoughts (strikes). the challenge for all of us is to use our invisible sword to create what we want to see in our world. Pick up your sword and practice your strikes, but make sure that you are striking with life, rather than death. Use your mind to build the world that you want.
