One of the main things that holds us back on our spiritual path is not fully owning our mistakes. Owning mistakes is a way for us to take our power and integrity back. When we do this skillfully, there is an alchemical process of forgiving ourselves, and simultaneously remembering who we are. We can turn these mistakes into lessons by taking responsibility without beating ourselves up. Truly owning our mistakes is the ultimate freedom because it returns us home. This is how we become whole, holy, and complete.
Most people’s concept of what a mistake is has so much to do with matrix programming. We’re programmed into a survival frequency thinking we aren’t allowed to make any mistakes. When we associate making a mistake with our survival, any weakness we have will feel like life or death. Mistakes will trigger the fight, flight, freeze, or fawn response and this will exhaust us.
A healthy relationship is not about never making mistakes. We are all human and still growing. It is about having the tools, skills and willingness to take accountability and repair damage. The outcome is dependent on what we do after we become aware we’ve made a mistake. Not examining our patterns is what allows us to repeat the same mistake unconsciously. Instead, we can make the appropriate changes to reduce the chances of repeating the harm again. Taking accountability ultimately means taking ownership of the parts of ourselves that need more guidance, love and support. We all need genuine accountability and self-correction in order to break through our programming and distortions.
Accountability is a love language to us and those around us. Prentis Hemphill will be joining us in our 2.0 class where we discuss how being able to recognize and take accountability for our unconscious behaviors is only the first step in doing the deep work of transformation. Learning is about playing; we don’t have a step-by-step guide to everything. Being vulnerable and trying our best with the knowledge, and tools we have allows us to grow and learn. When we take ownership of mistakes made along the way, it lets people know we have integrity and our past behaviors aren’t aligned with our intentions. Without the correction, it’s appropriate to assume that is just who we are.
If we all take accountability for the energy we put out in the world and ownership for things we created from fear, we can transform them into their highest form. This will allow us to move closer to our divine nature and confront, expose, and heal those things that block our awareness. It’s not about never failing. It’s about getting good at falling and standing back up. Expecting to fail and fall, and continuously learning from it. Mistakes aren’t optional, they are required.
