Curveballs are Universal reminders that we shouldn't adhere too strictly to a thought-made plan and instead open up to the limitless possibilities of unfoldment so as to always stay flexible in our decision-making, with utter Trust and Faith that the way 'things' develop is the highest vibrational path for our Soul with the most long-term positive lesson for us.
A plan doesn't require thought-made road maps.
Creating too much of a thought-made road map not only shuts us close towards attaining goals in wondrous and unexpected ways, but also do potential curveballs have the potential to catch us off guard and paralyze us due to our thorough road map not having calculated that unexpected obstacle. Our thinking mind only sees what lies within the eye.
A vision is a plan without thought-made road maps
Cultivating a vision comes about devoid of thought attachment. Intuition becomes our panacea, because it sees what lies withou the eye. Letting our every movement and action become a preemptive measure against the curveball's troublesome impact on our subconscious so that when it shows up in our conscious it will have already been "dismantled".
Having said that, the perfect plan is not having a plan, because only this way we can always flexibly adapt to no matter what is thrown at us!
Much Love and Light,

The way i understand it is like thinking mind is inside the labyrinth of life, while intuition is seeing from above the labyrinth. We just need to learn how to connect to and trust our intuition. Trust the source that already have all the knowledge.
Exactly! Perfectly stated! :)
That the perfect plan is not having a plan is not really something that we know. Clearly a plan can be extremely good to have and could make lots of exciting things happen. But I get what you are saying that be fluid and flow like water to whatever happens and engage with the current things that shows up can be very exciting. Especially if we do it with a certain level of Grace in elegance.
And our thinking mind can clearly come up with anything. It has taken millions of years of evolution to get to the current advanced state of the mind. This idea that the universe is designed special just for us is also probably not true. But the universe seem to have limitless doors you can open up so if you pay enough attention anything will yield to you. Which is in a way a bit similar.
Thought is good for entertainment and for survival but for knowing the Life form that we are it's not really needed. Just attention is what's needed to know our life form.
The older I get the more I realize that I don't know anything. A state I am quite comfortable with, because anything else is an attempt to make the illusion of Separation real. ;)
The mode of not knowing anything is the best since it's open up the possibility for knowing by making our Intelligence pay full attention. Attachment is corruption. We are good at doing some word magic but in the real world ocean there really is an endless of adventures and millions of shapes it can take. I'm the same as you in that regard being comfortable in not knowing stuff.
perfect
Thanks for your dedicated comment! I have nothing to add!;)
Totally agree, if you stay too rigid and life does throw the curveball it can really mess you up. There is no perfect plan the mind can come up with, the best we can do is visualize the feeling of an outcome and work towards it day by day
PS. I somehow missed upvoting your flowbark article which I really enjoyed... my bad
Haha, no reason to mention that! I haven't upvoted it either! 😃
It is my first time to learn a convincing difference between a vision and plan. :), I have been believing that those who attribute their success to ordinary plans have are unaware of having something that is greater than their plans.
Your words are very profound and real, Thanks for sharing.
Great comment! Yes, whenever we set a thought-made goal it is actually the feeling which we want. But we cannot think ourselves to the feeling. We can only feel ourselves to the feeling. And feeling unfolds in the absence of thoughts.
I have a slightly different perspective here. Authentic feelings about something are what we get when we perceive it without thought. Thoughts generate emotions which in turn generate feelings. In this case feelings are more related to what we have been experienced and learnt through our lives.
Hm, interesting. My experience is that the more I think the more negative emotions are being created, and the more I let go thoughts the more I connect with inner Peace. We are all different. :)
What would you feel if your thoughts are positive?
Surely, I get your point. In oder to get truly positive thoughts for me it was first necessary to release all negative thought patterns by practising mental Silence. Without this mental Silence I surely would have had positive thoughts here and then, but the negative thoughts patterns would have remained in place as well, causing an inner disbalance. So what I am saying is that for me mental Silence devoid of thoughts was THE key to release negative thought patterns, because only in mental Silence I was able to re-establish my Heart-connection, and from here induce positivity. Our every thought depends on our own Heart-connection. But I say all this without any sense of being more right than others. We all have personal experiences which are equally valid with nobody being more true or less ;)
Perfect 🙂. About thoughts and mental silence, there is a great book by Eckhart Tolle titled The Power Of Now, it reveals alot about how to deal with thoughts.
