The concept we are going to talk about is a spiritual one
If you aren& #39;t into & #39;woo woo& #39; stuff, I still encourage you to stick around
This is heavily applicable to anyone& #39;s lives
The 3 Modalities of Awakened Doing
I got this from the book A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle

The 3 Modalities of Awakened Doing
I got this from the book A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle
The Basics:
The 3 modalities
- Acceptance
- Enjoyment
- Enthusiasm
One should be active with ANYTHING you are doing
Especially when it is something you don& #39;t want to do

Having one of these active is what helps you stay conscious
They expose the underlying reality of the issue at hand
If something needs to get done for you to achieve what you want in life
You need to accept it, find enjoyment, or be enthusiastic about what you are doing

Example 1: Something unfortunate
You get in a car crash, it totals your car
Most people would burst into tears and freak out
The reality behind it:
The only thing you can do is *accept* what happened and take the steps necessary to make it better
You get in a car crash, it totals your car
Most people would burst into tears and freak out
The reality behind it:
The only thing you can do is *accept* what happened and take the steps necessary to make it better
You will never *enjoy* getting in a crash
You can& #39;t be *enthusiastic* about getting in a crash
The only thing you can do is accept what happened and do what needs to be done.
Crying about it and cursing the world will only make it worse

Example 2: Doing the mundane
You& #39;ve been putting off cleaning the house (boring example i know)
You can keep putting it off, or you can face the reality
Your house needs to be clean, it& #39;s important, and you know this
(That is why it is causing you pain and annoyance)

In comes the *enjoyment* modality...
You don& #39;t have to work on something meaningful or fun to find enjoyment
Enjoyment is a natural byproduct of & #39;living in the moment& #39;
AKA not projecting into the future:
"Ughhh I have to clean the house" is a projection
It causes stress

Pull yourself back
Focus on the task at hand
And make it enjoyable
Throw on some headphones, blast your favorite tune, and grab the cleaning supplies

Example 3: A task pertaining to your goals/vision
You want to do great things
You probably have SOME kind of vision for your future
Whether it be a lot of money, a big house, or just living a peaceful life

I& #39;ve talked about this before (quite a lot actually):
Your future is based off of your actions
You achieve goals by doing things everyday that will put you closer to achieving them
But... sometimes we don& #39;t want to do those little tasks
They don& #39;t sound appealing at the time

But... sometimes we don& #39;t want to do those little tasks

This is where *enthusiasm* comes in
You need to remind yourself of your goals/vision of the future
You need to understand that these small steps are what will take you there
This makes it much easier to be enthusiastic about what you are doing

Enthusiasm ties in with enjoyment
If you can truly enjoy what you are doing (based on the earlier example)
And pair it with a vision/goal
That enjoyment becomes enthusiasm
This is what adds a spark to your work
Some people do this without even knowing

Last thing, this thread was about doing things that you don& #39;t want to do
But, the contents of this thread are only possible to do if you remain present
Your focal point needs to be on the task in front of you
Negativity cannot exist if and when you are fully present
