Our Power To Choose
Backseat Driver
Hello friends,
Today I’d like to talk about our power to choose and what it means in these times of revolution and mega change.
Background
The power of choice is central to our lives and can profoundly shape the path we take. It’s clear that these times we’re living in demand a greater awareness of how we use that power. To create lasting change, not just in our own lives, but in the world around us, we must understand how our choices shape the future and how to move past the fear that often accompanies big changes.
Why is this revolution needed now?
This revolution, this transformation, is not just a random event; it’s the natural evolution of humanity. The old systems and structures we’ve relied on are no longer serving us in the way they once did.
Our collective consciousness is awakening to the fact that the way we’ve been doing things is no longer sustainable—economically, socially, or environmentally. This shift is happening because we’ve reached a tipping point, and the old ways can’t take us any further.
The revolution is about opening our eyes to new possibilities, solutions, and ways of interacting with each other and the planet. It’s about creating something that is more aligned with compassion, justice, and sustainability.
What do we need to know?
We need to understand that we are not powerless in this transformation. Every choice we make, from how we treat others to how we engage with the challenges around us, shapes the world we live in.
Each of us has the capacity to be a Divine Changemaker—someone who is intentional in their actions, mindful of their impact, and committed to creating a better, more loving world.
Another essential piece is that change, even when it’s for the better, can feel overwhelming. When things feel uncertain, it’s easy to retreat into fear. This is a natural human response, especially when we’re faced with the unknown. However, our success in navigating this transformation depends on embracing our power to choose consciously.
Why do we fear big changes such as this?
Fear often arises from the unknown. The ego, which thrives on familiarity and control, perceives change as a threat. It fears losing its sense of stability, even if that stability is based on outdated or unhealthy systems. The ego wants to stay in the backseat, clinging to the old ways, because it doesn’t trust the new ways.
The fear-based ego believes it can predict outcomes when it’s in control, but in truth, it’s often the barrier to real transformation. The only way to move forward is to acknowledge the fear, recognize it as part of the process, and then make a conscious decision to move through it.
The Role of the Backseat Driver (The Fear-Based Ego)
The ego is like a backseat driver who constantly critiques and attempts to take control, even when it’s clear that the direction we’re heading is where we need to go. This ego-driven voice will try to convince us that we’re on the wrong path, that change is dangerous, or that things will never work out. But this voice is rooted in fear, not truth.
To be a Divine Changemaker, we must learn to recognize when the ego is taking the wheel and, instead, choose to trust in our Higher Self—our evolved self. This part of us is not driven by fear but by love, compassion, and wisdom. It understands that even in times of uncertainty, the direction we are heading toward is one of growth and healing, both for us as individuals and for the world as a whole.
