Dangling Prize Mind
A mind distracted by dangling prizes can’t quiet itself regardless of what’s used as a distraction. Dangling prizes reinforce the distractions because it blocks out the awareness they are there…
If a distracted dangling prize mind is in control and running your life, it doesn’t matter much what’s going on, it’s going to be difficult to be aware they are there. It’s such a dangling prize world because most people think their answers are outside them when the answers are within. What the dangling prizes actually are and how they’re created is by not being aware that they’re not needed. With a mind that’s conditioned to go after dangling prizes, you have to constantly look for them, hence the distractions. This is how Conditioned Mind dangling prize distractions are formed and how they block awareness of your inner presence. It’s distractions created because if you understood them, the need to look for them would be non existent and so would the dangling prize distractions.
The ability to understand the dangling prize mind lies in being aware they’re there, but it’s not something that’s going to happen on its own. It’s a beautiful thing the awareness of the worlds dangling prizes are in your hands and that it’s totally up to each individual how much awareness there is in your life. A little quiet equates to a little awareness so it’s up to each individual to do what’s necessary to become more aware of the dangling prize mind distractions. As you become more aware of being in the present moment the dangling prize distractions lessen and what remains is inner presence. If you’re waiting for anything else, you’ll be waiting a very long time as it won’t happen while your dangling prize mind distractions are in control…
