On this episode of New Paradigm Human . We're talking

0:56

about how generators and MGs can tackle things

0:58

they don't want to do . Hello

1:23

everybody , i'm just sitting here on

1:26

a rather hot evening , feeling completely

1:28

overwhelmed by all

1:32

of the social media , all of the different ways

1:34

you can express yourself and yet , at the same

1:37

time , feeling like I don't

1:39

know how to express myself anymore

1:41

. Every single social media platform

1:44

is trying to have every single feature

1:46

of all of the other ones , and

1:48

I just personally feel overcapacity

1:50

. For me , the past few months , sharing

1:52

things on social media has felt a little

1:54

bit like I should . It's something that hasn't been

1:57

joyful in my life and that is not

1:59

the way it has been for me for the past four years

2:01

. I love sharing things on social media

2:03

. It's really fun to create for that and

2:06

test ideas and connect with people

2:08

, but I'm just not feeling that way right now

2:10

and it's something that's really been draining

2:12

to think about . I'm thinking a lot about

2:14

it , like , oh , i should be doing this , i should

2:17

be doing that , which got me thinking about a

2:19

request I had recently from someone

2:21

which was to talk about how to tackle

2:23

things that you don't want to do , and

2:26

I don't think that this person specifically was talking

2:28

about this type of scenario , but

2:30

this is very real for generators and MGs and

2:32

I think the common thread for what

2:34

I've been experiencing and perhaps what this person

2:37

is talking about , which is just getting things

2:39

done that aren't fun , that are chores that

2:41

just have to be done as part of life , is

2:43

that the biggest strain they put on us is

2:45

mentally , the thinking about doing them

2:47

, the dreading them , the procrastinating

2:49

, the putting it off , the bargaining

2:52

with yourself about not doing it or doing it

2:54

or whatever , And this is just so real . This

2:56

is something that we experience . So I wanted

2:58

to demystify this a little bit because I think

3:00

there are ways to deal with these things

3:02

in life in alignment with our generator

3:05

MG design . I also want to say

3:07

that I don't know that there's ever going to be a

3:09

life where we

3:11

don't have at least a couple of things

3:13

that we do that we don't really enjoy . That's

3:15

just kind of life , but you can also

3:17

get to a place where it's not

3:20

all consuming and I feel like I am at that

3:22

place in my life . I feel like I

3:24

enjoy like 99%

3:26

of what I do with my

3:28

time and energy . I don't find

3:30

myself overly fixating or

3:32

draining a lot of energy into things I don't like . It

3:35

took a long time to get there . Even when I started

3:37

my business and I had full freedom over my time

3:40

and energy , it was hard to know

3:42

what felt good and what didn't . For

3:44

me as a third line profile , it just took a

3:46

lot of experimentation . But about

3:48

four years in I feel like I have

3:50

a pretty good understanding of what that is , And

3:53

it's always evolving . But it's easier to

3:55

stay away from the things that don't feel good now

3:57

than it was before And honestly , i

3:59

feel so energized by all the things that

4:01

I do that do feel good that

4:03

doing that tiny little percentage of things

4:05

that aren't my favorite I can handle

4:07

it because I'm overall

4:10

just nourished and energized

4:12

by everything else And it's not

4:14

all that draining to just take care of a few little things

4:16

here and there . In this episode I'm also going to touch

4:18

on a bunch of different topics

4:20

that I've covered in the recent glow

4:23

up programs and are coming

4:25

up a lot in the discord . By

4:27

the end of July I will have covered like

4:29

seven different sort of modules

4:32

in the discord groups and the different

4:34

things I've launched there , and I am working

4:36

on putting all of this together in

4:38

a space , some kind of digital space

4:41

, where you can choose

4:43

to partake in these different

4:45

deconditioning modules

4:47

and information and exercises

4:50

, and I don't fully know what that's going

4:52

to look like yet , but it's beginning to come

4:54

together . I feel a lot of different responses And I'm

4:56

just kind of waiting for some things to click in place

4:59

. So if you're interested in that , make sure

5:01

you're on my email list . I'll have a link

5:03

in the description below , or you can go to peergeneratorscom

5:06

, because that is the center

5:08

of how I communicate with people right

5:10

now . As I said , having some complicated

5:12

thoughts about social media , i love our

5:14

email list . It's so nice

5:16

to have a direct way to connect with everybody . There's

5:19

over 7000 people there , so I always

5:21

try to really create meaningful things

5:23

and people love opening up the email . So , yeah , link

5:25

below . But anyway , i wanted to just

5:27

demystify this idea of how

5:30

do you tackle things that you don't want to do

5:32

and just ask a few questions

5:34

that you can ask yourself . Talk

5:36

about the energetics of how this works for

5:38

us as people with defined sake rolls

5:40

, and hopefully it'll give you some ideas

5:43

for how to handle these things in your life

5:45

. So I think there's a few

5:47

different scenarios where

5:50

you can end up with tasks

5:52

or things in your life that you have to do

5:54

that don't feel good or feel

5:56

draining . Like I started to say before

5:58

, i am not of the opinion that being

6:01

a generator or MG is a 24

6:03

seven bliss fest . That just kind

6:05

of not the point of the whole thing . The

6:07

sacred is a place of consistent

6:09

pleasure , yes , but it's also

6:11

just satisfaction . Pleasure is

6:13

obviously kind of sexy , but satisfaction

6:16

is kind of like not that sexy . There's

6:18

just something very like settled in matter of

6:20

fact and nice about it . It's

6:22

not like extreme highs or extreme

6:25

lows . You can find really mundane

6:27

things fully satisfying

6:29

. I found a lot of mundane things satisfying

6:32

for many years in my last

6:34

career And honestly , as a generator that

6:36

kept me going , like my spreadsheets

6:38

and crafting the perfect email

6:40

, completing tasks in my project management

6:43

system . None of those things were like

6:45

deeply pleasurable , but the satisfaction

6:47

of doing those things was meaningful as

6:49

a sacred being a generator

6:52

or MG . So it's important to

6:54

remember that there's that side of

6:56

being a generator to . It's not

6:58

about having this extreme

7:00

pleasure and joy all the time

7:03

. It's about those things that just make you feel

7:05

that good , tired at the end of the day , that kind

7:07

of settle your energy . If it weren't

7:09

the case , i just don't think the human race would

7:11

have continued , because the vast

7:14

majority of human beings

7:16

have been birthed through generators

7:19

and manifesting generators . Just simply because we

7:21

are 70% of the population , so

7:23

most people have been raised by

7:25

a generator or manifesting generator

7:28

, and same thing with all the animals

7:30

and the things we built , and not

7:32

every moment of that is deeply joyous

7:35

, but overall the project

7:37

is satisfying . So that's

7:39

just one thing to think about , but mostly

7:41

people are thinking about chores

7:44

like house chores , taking

7:47

out the garbage , cleaning , maybe

7:49

running errands , making sure that you

7:51

have healthy food every day . That's not

7:53

always the most fun thing , although sometimes

7:55

it is fun . Managing your finances

7:57

so that you are

7:59

in as good of financial health as possible

8:02

These are all things that I personally find

8:04

not that fun and a little bit unsexy

8:07

. It could also be tasks that

8:09

you have to do at a job because they pay you

8:11

and it's part of your job description . It could be exercise

8:14

. So those are the types of things that people are typically

8:16

thinking about when they're thinking about

8:18

how do I get things done in my life

8:20

that I just don't really enjoy . So here

8:22

are some things to ask yourself

8:24

when one of these tasks is

8:27

appearing in your life . The first

8:29

thing is do you actually

8:31

need to do that thing ? I

8:33

don't know about you , but I personally

8:36

will add things to

8:38

my to-do list that maybe

8:41

I should do them . There's

8:43

something that probably needs to be done in the future

8:45

. There's something that might

8:48

make my life better in the present

8:50

or would be a good thing to get

8:52

started on . You know , you have

8:54

this big thing at the end of the month that you have to do for

8:57

work , but it's like three weeks away and

8:59

you just don't have the energy to do it right

9:01

now . Or , like me , for

9:03

the last few months , i have a specialist

9:05

doctor that I should really go see for like

9:08

a chronic health issue . But

9:10

the health issue is not at

9:12

all life threatening , it's just more of a

9:14

comfort thing and I just haven't had any problems

9:17

with it lately . So I add

9:19

that to my to-do list every week and then don't

9:21

do it and then stress about it and then add it

9:23

to the next week . So things like that

9:25

it's . Is this actually something that I

9:28

actually need to do ? Like

9:30

you will kind of know , is there a deadline

9:32

? Are you going to have to pay a fine ? Are

9:34

you going to get fired from your job

9:37

? Is someone going to die ? Is

9:39

it going to have a massive negative

9:41

repercussion on your life or someone else's

9:43

life ? In that case , i think most people

9:46

don't have a problem motivating themselves

9:48

. That's a clear yes . You have to do it . You

9:50

probably get the energy You move forward . But

9:52

a lot of times the things that we think

9:54

we need to do , that we're shifting

9:57

on our to-do list from week to week to week to

9:59

week . Maybe they just don't

10:01

actually have to be done or they

10:03

don't have to be done right now . We

10:05

don't want to put ourselves in positions where

10:08

we're going to create like massive

10:10

stress or like

10:12

a more poor quality product

10:15

in the end . But if it's something

10:17

like I don't know for me , for my quarterly

10:19

taxes that I pay from my business , ideally

10:22

, yeah , i would sit down every single week and

10:24

categorize the transactions , but honestly

10:27

, if I do that once every two weeks

10:29

or once a month , it's really not that

10:31

much bigger of a difference , because I have

10:33

other systems that allow me

10:35

to kind of know what money to put

10:38

away for savings just by eyeballing

10:40

a spreadsheet that calculates automatically

10:42

, and I save all my receipts

10:44

in a folder , so when I like

10:47

, as they come into my email , so when I actually

10:49

sit down to categorize all the transactions

10:52

in my tax software . Those other

10:54

two things that really are important

10:56

, that are going to set me back a lot of time

10:58

or make it so that I don't have the

11:00

right money saved , which obviously that will

11:02

have big repercussions in the end those

11:05

things are taking care of . So I don't need to be

11:07

adding that task of categorizing

11:09

all my tax stuff every

11:11

single week , like I used to , which then

11:13

I would just not do it or feel bad about it , because

11:16

I don't actually need to do that . It's okay

11:18

if I do it much less frequently . So

11:20

that's question number one Does this truly need to

11:22

be done or is this a should ? The

11:24

second question is can you outsource

11:26

it ? Can you pay someone to take care

11:29

of it for you ? Can you trade with

11:31

somebody else to do that task ? Is

11:33

it something that your partner or someone

11:35

else in your family can do ? Is it something you

11:37

could trade with a friend or an acquaintance

11:40

who also does that thing ? Can you find

11:42

a way to automate it or get

11:44

a software or something that could

11:46

help do it for you . So just basically

11:49

looking at the process , seeing what the

11:51

steps are and seeing if there's any

11:53

way around you doing them in exactly the

11:55

way that you're doing them right now , that could shift

11:57

it to something that actually feels quite good for

11:59

your energy or leads to you

12:01

not having to do it at all

12:04

. And so maybe that's the next point is

12:06

is there a way to do this differently

12:09

? What are some ways that other people

12:11

are doing it ? You can pull your network

12:13

, especially if you're a fourth line , ask around to

12:15

some friends and family like how are they getting this thing

12:17

done ? Does anybody else see something that you

12:19

don't see ? Like that would be a good question

12:21

if you're a second line . If you're a third line

12:23

, can you go try some different things

12:25

. If you're a first line , could you seek out some other

12:28

options . If you're a sixth line , could you look

12:30

out at the people around you and be like what

12:32

are they doing ? If you're a fifth line , you're probably

12:34

quite good with solutions and

12:36

you can draw on your other line to kind of

12:38

help you source that information

12:40

in those possibilities . So it's a bit

12:42

of a mindset shift , which is that , while

12:45

, yes , we may have tasks here and

12:47

there throughout our lives that we don't

12:49

love , we can let go of the belief

12:51

that there will always be these things that we just have

12:53

to hate , because at least

12:55

I'm of the opinion and this is based on my own

12:57

experience and seeing this actually be

12:59

true in the world that there are

13:01

different ways to do things and there

13:03

are always ways to make things work for

13:05

us . This is a bit of an affirmation

13:08

and belief that I have instilled into

13:10

my life , which is there's always a way to make this

13:13

work with my energy . So

13:15

, outsourcing , doing it differently

13:17

really good strategies for

13:20

something that you really don't enjoy . Another question

13:22

you can ask for yourself is can you set

13:24

up some structure and outside

13:26

accountability ? This is so key . It's

13:28

key if you have an undefined heart

13:30

. Even if you have a defined heart , you may

13:33

also thrive from this by making

13:35

some kind of external commitment or

13:37

a promise to somebody else or

13:39

making a commitment to yourself , but

13:42

basically formalizing the idea

13:44

of where and when and how

13:46

you're going to do something . And if you're someone who

13:48

has a hard time with that internal motivation

13:50

, as most of us do , can you set

13:53

up some external accountability

13:55

or structure to help you do it . For instance

13:57

, i would not be walking four

13:59

to five miles a day if I did not have a dog . It

14:01

just didn't happen in my life Ever since I got

14:03

my dog this winter , even when I don't

14:05

want to , even when I'm really tired

14:07

and it just doesn't feel good and it's hot

14:10

and it's just not what I want to do , i

14:12

still find a way to take him on a walk

14:14

twice a day for a total of 80 minutes

14:17

or more of walking . I'm really grateful

14:19

that I have this built into my life now . It's just

14:21

not something I have to waste mental energy

14:23

on . I just do it because I have to

14:25

, because he needs to walk , and he's annoying

14:28

and crazy and unhappy if he doesn't get it . It

14:30

could be setting up like a friend date to

14:32

go do that thing with that person . I also

14:35

know that , like my husband and I , there

14:37

are certain things house projects where

14:39

we're just not gonna do them separately

14:42

. We have a tendency to sometimes finish

14:44

things to like 90% , but

14:46

we won't finish that final 10% unless

14:48

we both agree and show up together and

14:51

hold each other accountable . So having that structure

14:53

, that kind of forces you to get something done

14:55

can feel not

14:57

amazing in the moment , but the

14:59

satisfaction of just having it done and removing

15:02

it from your mental load

15:04

goes so far as Generators

15:07

and MGs . We just want to be in our minds like

15:09

as the least we can when

15:11

thinking about where to put our energy . We

15:13

can use our minds for all sorts of other things , for

15:16

daydreaming and analyzing and observing

15:18

and basically taking in the world . But

15:21

using it for figuring out like how

15:23

and when and what we're going to do , and , oh

15:25

gosh , that's when things just get really draining . So

15:28

the more you can just build a task

15:30

into your day in

15:32

a way where it has to happen , you have to show

15:34

up , that is just so helpful

15:37

. Another question is can you offset

15:39

it with something fun ? Like

15:41

I said before , generally if

15:43

you are enjoying the

15:45

vast majority of the things that you're

15:47

doing in your life , it's much easier

15:49

to take these things on . When

15:51

I was working full time in

15:54

a job that was very draining for me , certain things

15:56

like cleaning or errands or

15:58

just those little administrative tasks of

16:00

life felt almost

16:02

impossible . But now that I love

16:04

the work that I do and I'm enjoying myself

16:07

most of the time , those are just small

16:09

things , and while sometimes I do need

16:11

to employ these other strategies

16:14

, like outsourcing or

16:16

creating structure and accountability

16:18

, sometimes the energy

16:21

and enjoyment and satisfaction

16:24

of all the other things in my life can

16:26

carry me through the not

16:28

so fun thing . So sometimes you compare

16:30

something really fun or just make

16:33

sure to maximize the

16:35

satisfying and energizing tasks

16:37

that you're doing in your life And you'll find that

16:39

that energy spills over into these things

16:42

that may not be the most enjoyable . A

16:44

copy out to all of this is that if

16:46

you are just severely drained

16:48

in like every area of your life , if

16:50

you're dedicating all of your energy to

16:53

a job or project that is

16:55

just not in alignment with your energy

16:57

, you're not getting any satisfaction out of it

16:59

. I have 100% been there

17:01

And the reality is that that's just

17:04

not going to be sustainable in the long

17:06

term . So even if you can't make

17:08

a change in that area of your life today

17:11

or tomorrow , that's okay And

17:13

that's , i think , where the mind gets really

17:15

caught up is that if that

17:17

change isn't obvious

17:20

in the moment , you can start

17:22

to feel like everything is futile . The

17:24

mind just doesn't like that . But

17:26

I feel that there's always possibilities

17:29

for change . There's always more opportunities

17:32

out there . If you're in some job or

17:34

some situation that you really hate , you

17:36

100% can get out of

17:38

it . It just has to happen at the

17:40

right time for you And

17:43

the right things to respond to will

17:45

be there . But again

17:48

, i still think that the most

17:50

draining thing is just all the

17:52

thoughts that we have about this stuff . So

17:54

, even if you're in a draining situation

17:57

and even applying

17:59

these things I'm talking about doesn't really resolve

18:02

all of it , just know that that's

18:04

okay , that even if the change

18:06

of like a new job or a new living situation

18:09

or a new relationship or a new project

18:11

or whatever it is , isn't available

18:13

to you right now , it doesn't mean it's not available

18:16

to you in a couple of days and a couple of weeks , a

18:18

couple of months , even a couple of years

18:20

. And by just being very present

18:22

in your current life , being honest

18:25

with yourself about how you feel , being in

18:27

touch with what you actually desire and

18:30

getting as much clarity on how you

18:32

want to feel as you can

18:34

and the things that truly are energizing

18:36

for you , that's when more of those opportunities

18:38

start to appear and you'll see them

18:41

, because you're looking for them And sometimes

18:43

it's okay to just be in something that you

18:45

know isn't for the long term and it's not great

18:47

and it's not working . But you can maximize

18:50

the fun that you have outside of that on the

18:52

weekends , on the time you have off in

18:55

your alone time , with some side

18:57

projects you have , and sometimes

18:59

that's just enough to carry you through until

19:01

it's time to step into the next

19:04

phase and into an opportunity that's

19:06

a lot more aligned . So , basically , what

19:08

I want everyone to take away from this , the TLDR

19:10

, is as a generator or MG . Of

19:12

course we're here to do things that are

19:14

energizing and satisfying to

19:16

us . But if your life does not look 100%

19:20

energizing or satisfying right now

19:22

, that is okay . But if you hold

19:24

that as your intention , as something that

19:26

you want to bring into your life

19:28

, that you know is who you

19:30

are at your most essential

19:33

level , because it is you're a generator

19:35

or MG . It's what you're put on earth

19:37

to do , to do things that you enjoy

19:40

, that are satisfying then that

19:42

reality will unfold for

19:44

you and you don't need to stress a lot about how

19:47

. Just be present and be noticing

19:50

the things that are feeling like yes

19:52

to you , are feeling like a no , and

19:54

pursuing those things that feel like a yes

19:57

, and step by step , it all kind of

19:59

comes together And eventually

20:01

you look up and you realize , wow , i enjoy like

20:03

99% of my life and it's such a good

20:05

feeling , but you're still on

20:07

the journey , in the in between , like it's

20:09

not , like you're not doing it right . It

20:12

just takes time to decondition and allow these

20:14

things to unfold in our lives . So hopefully

20:16

that gave you some ideas about how to tackle

20:18

these things in your life that maybe don't feel

20:20

the most energizing , some different ways

20:22

to think about them , so that you're

20:25

not just draining yourself mentally where

20:27

the shoulds or thinking that you should be somewhere

20:29

that you're not , because we're

20:31

all just on the journey . Our journeys

20:33

are all different . You're even learning things

20:35

and experiencing things when you

20:38

are feeling like you're not

20:40

on the path that you want to be on , and that's

20:42

just an important step to getting

20:45

on the path that you want to go on most of the

20:47

time . So thank you everyone and I'll

20:49

talk to you soon , narayana
