 On this episode of New Paradigm Human, we're talking about the three biggest lies that generators and mgs are taught and how to break free.

Hello. Today we're gonna talk about three of the most common things that generators and mgs are conditioned to believe. These are things that act in opposition to our natural energy, but they're things that we're pressured from the outside to think we have to do, or ways we have to be, and they stop us from inhabiting.

Our unique energy, and when we align with our unique energy and we act in accordance with how our aura works, that's when life becomes a lot more flowing and easy and meaningful and purposeful for us, because of course we live on earth. It's not necessarily meant to be and easy place, but it doesn't have to be a place where we suffer and work against ourselves.

When we align with our design, we have the experiences we're meant to have, and there's this feeling of, okay, I can see that I'm growing through this. I can see even if this is challenging, I can see how or really. Feel that this is something that I'm meant to experience. I've been talking a lot lately on threads and Twitter and Instagram and email about how we can reframe waiting to respond, how we can see it as more being, and the ways that we can contribute to attracting the things that we are seeking.

So if you like that kind of topic, I have links to all my social platforms below and you can follow me there. And we're gonna talk about something similar today. So this is not an exhaustive list, but these are just three of the main lies that generators and mgs get told as we're growing up and as we're living in the world.

So the first one I would say is we are told to. Believe that we have to figure things out before we act like we need to look out and plan every step of how we're gonna make something happen. This is not correct for our aura. There are some people who have maybe a defined head in Ajna and like the channel of logic that is a little bit more of like a forward looking energy, but it's not very many people that have that.

I have a defined head nausea, but I do not have that. And even then, that's not our decision making authority. Our mind is never our decision making authority. So even if we're able to kind of look ahead and maybe project on some things or figure out like how things might come together, that doesn't necessarily mean that that's what we should listen to.

We still have to pull that energy back and listen to our strategy and authority. And for generators and mgs, we rarely know. All the steps that we're gonna take in order to get somewhere, especially if it's something really big. Like we're like, I wanna have this type of job or career or business. I wanna make this huge pivot in my life.

I want to have this type of relationship or family. I wanna create this thing. I want to get this kind of dealer opportunity. 'cause we're. Always given the desire first. We're not really given the plan. We could follow a plan, but in a lot of cases, that leads us to frustration because it just simply won't come together the way we hope or it'll take us somewhere.

That actually wasn't where we really wanted to go. It might just be a place we thought we wanted to go and for the last a hundred years, for sure, I mean over really like the last 2000 years, but definitely like. In the 20th century, we were taught to believe that, okay, if you just do X, Y, z, you pick this life path.

You can be a priest, you can be a doctor, you can be a stay at home mom, you can be a lawyer, you can have your own business. If you just followed this path and you identified with that path and you did all the steps that you could get. There and there are some things that still work that way. Obviously we want our doctors and our lawyers and things to go through a certain type of training because it's very important that people have the knowledge that they need, but there's still a lot of room within those to make decisions, and the path may not unfold exactly the way we expect.

So we're first given that desire, we feel that desire in our sacral, we have consistent access to desire, and then it's like, oh my God. How am I possibly gonna make that happen? And then we're taught, okay, you should make a plan, but really we can just wait for the next thing to respond to. Waiting to respond feels difficult.

Sometimes it can feel like unempowering feel like you have no control over your life, but this is not true at all because we're only made to wait to respond because we have open enveloping. Attractive magnetic auras. So we're always pulling things to us, and I don't think we always recognize how special that is.

It's something that we kind of take for granted because our whole life has been that way. And I know that the other types who don't have that, they, they could probably tell you like, oh no, that that's a special thing because. We are designed to meet everything we encounter with a yes or a no, and we're always encountering things, people, places, opportunities, inspiration.

Literally everything is something to respond to, especially in this incredibly fast-paced world we're living in right now where we're encountering so many people every day. We can encounter thousands, tens of thousands of people every day. We can encounter thousands of ideas and possibilities and inspiration out there through media, internet, really the.

Possibilities are endless. We're no longer just limited to what's in our close vicinity, although we have all of that too. So I think sometimes we take for granted how many things we're drawing to us every day, and it is through responding to those things that we make our way, toward the result that we want, the thing we desire, and it's really best for us to let go of trying to figure it out.

Because when we try to figure it out, when we decide it's gonna go a certain way, we kind of turn on these blinders to all the other possibilities that are probably actually better for us. So it's just gonna be common to end up in frustration or burnout if we try to do it that way. So. We do not have to figure it out.

We do not have to figure it all out before we act. We just need to know what we desire to get to. For some people that may be like a very specific thing. For some people it may be more of a feeling, but even, you know, within things in my business, like this month, I felt like, oh, my goal is to like reach more people.

And I really didn't have a concrete plan about how I was gonna do that. I was just. Responding to things out there, but then I'm noticing as the month goes on, because I acknowledge that desire, I voiced it to the world, the people around me that I talk to about what I do every day. It was like I started noticing all these things.

All of a sudden I noticed like, oh, all of a sudden my business emails, when did they stop getting sent from my main email address? And I realized that I could fix that and. I was introduced to all these ways of cleaning up my email contacts, and all of a sudden I feel like I have this really strong strategy right now for social media.

All these things that have alluded me are for like a year. It's been, it's been a little bit frustration central in those areas of my life. But because I had that desire and I owned it and I acknowledged it, it's like it's all coming together and I could not have made up this plan, but it's coming together really nicely.

So for us, it's really good to know what we desire, if. We don't know what we desire. That's where you just let life happen and live life, and that's when you focus on tapping into your sacral response. Everyone has a sacral response. If you have emotional authority, that's like an added layer of your decision making process that comes for bigger decisions, but everybody can tap into that.

Thing in your body of like, Ooh, why do I feel kind of interested in that? Attracted to that? Ooh. Like, why do I feel a little bit energized by like, Ooh, why? Why do I feel repulsed by that? It's working for us all the time. It's just that when we're not used to listening to it, it can be a little bit hard to hear.

So step one is to practice that and learn to recognize when there is something that's actually a desire. Then once you own that desire, it's very natural to attract all of these possibilities to you. Then you take action on the ones that feel like yes, and that's what will take you to your goal or the result you want.

Another lie that we are told at generators MG is, is that if we're not being productive, we're failing. And honestly, this kind of happens within the human design community too. I remember when I first found human design, there was a lot of rhetoric around like generators and mgs are the worker bees. Well, not really, we're just the people that wake up with consistent energy every day, but.

That energy runs out every day too. So we definitely are people who need to rest, chill out, relax. I'm a generator. I have energy every day. Some people would look at me and say that I do a lot of things, but I'm also like a very cozy, loungy person. So it doesn't necessarily mean that we're going hard all the time.

My husband is an mg, he is much more of like a busy body type of person. But he still needs to rest too. And at the end of the day, once that energy's gone, we're done. So it's definitely possible that we were taught that resting is something we should feel guilty about. I remember encountering this in childhood with certain people in my life, not understanding why.

Maybe on a Saturday I just wanted to lay around because I had been like doing things all week. Or even though we are. Energetic people, we can absolutely still burn out because if we're pushing ourselves past that tank of energy that we have every day, that will absolutely lead to burnout, adrenal fatigue, because we're basically trying to drive on an empty tank, and that will sap our life force in the long term.

And maybe we also think that if we. Stop taking action. If we stop doing things, then we won't make things happen, and that's just not true. Generators and mgs are balanced in our masculine and feminine, just like energy, our receptive and active energy, because first we receive, we wait, we attract the thing.

That provokes a response in us. Then once we responded, we take action. So it's this dance of like sitting back like, okay, I'm waiting for this feeling. I'm just being in my life. And then, ooh, response, okay, take action. And we can, we can be fast movers, however we really can't. Always be moving. That would take us out of that receptive place that we need to be in sometimes, at least in certain areas of our life.

And honestly, like if we're just trying to move all the time, we will probably end up doing things that are actually not productive, that we end up having to redo later that just drain us and they probably just won't be effective. That's mostly been my experience. If I'm pushing myself to take action when I'm not really.

Into it. Whatever I create or do or accomplish just won't really work out. Like it won't be successful. It definitely won't be satisfying. It won't be received well by other people. So it's important for us to have that balance, that it's completely okay for us to rest. It's okay for us to take time off.

It's okay for us to go through periods of low energy. I go through one like every winter, and that's just normal biologically. But even if it weren't in the winter, this idea that sometimes. We just have a period during the day, during the week, during the year where we have to rest because we are waiting for something big to come to us.

And when we rest, we're saving the energy that we need for that thing that's coming to us. And if we use it all on things that we actually haven't responded to, we're gonna get drained. And the third one that I think is. So pervasive for generators and mgs, especially in American society. This probably happens everywhere, but it's very relevant here, is that we have to go after everything that we want, and this is definitely something that I was conditioned to believe as a young person.

And when I was first entering the job market, I was like, you have to go hunt this down. You have to be aggressive, you have to take initiative. And I think this is kind of generally changing a little bit more in our society now that things are more complex. Like I've definitely seen people in their twenties or people in their teens, their parents are like, you should go get a job.

Just show up with your resume. And you know, you get to the place and they're like, actually we don't even take those in person. We don't wanna talk. You. We actually just wanna give you a call. If we're interested in you, we don't really want you to show up here. So I think we're kind of shifting away from that as just the ways of getting in contact become more complex.

But overall, we're taught from a very young age. Go after what you want. And I would say that the new version of that, or generators and mgs would be own your desires and. Express them confidently. That does not mean trying to take action when it's not the right time. It doesn't mean trying to force something because that will absolutely wear us out and lead us to frustration if we get too fixated on an end goal and we lose sight of the satisfaction of the process.

So basically we try to make something happen by doing something that we don't actually enjoy that will lead us to burnout being drained, frustration. And I think this can be especially. Common for manifesting generators because you do have that manifesting ability. Basically, you have that motor to your throat where you can kind of move from waiting to action quite quickly.

So you might feel especially pulled to start things before you have been approached by life or before your motor has. Been ignited and you need that motor, you need that, yes, in order to actually have the energy to do it and not feel drained in the end. But yeah, when we try to force things too much, it's just not efficient.

It's just not gonna get the result that we necessarily want. And even if we were to get a result, we still would not feel good at the end of it because we wouldn't feel the satisfaction. Satisfaction for us. Always comes through enjoying doing something, not achieving a result. I have done this a few times in my business, not necessarily initiating, but getting a result in a way that wasn't totally satisfying and it just, it really sucked in the end, it was like any money that came from that just ended up getting wasted.

I ended up feeling super drained and needing to take a bunch of time off. And the other scenario is. That you could just waste a lot of time and energy and you're kind of blocking the things that are trying to come to you. Like I've been watching my husband go through the job hunting process. He has like a contract job.

Finally, after a year now, he started looking maybe six. Seven months ago, and I felt like he did it really well in alignment with his design. Even though he doesn't really think like that, he just kind of naturally lives very aligned. He's a manifesting generator and he is also a two four profile, and so as a second line and a fourth line, he's definitely not someone who's like going out there and pursuing things first lines.

We can kind of pursue some things through research that then might lead us to like put an application out or reach out to somebody and that can be aligned if it's something we're feeling energized by. But for him in particular, it's better for him to just like be in his world and people approach him.

So instead of sending out a bunch of blind applications and like overwhelming himself with that, who's very strategic in how he used his energy, he got connected with some recruiters, let them bring the opportunities to him. Let. Them be the buffer between him and the employers. And he also voiced this need, this desire to the people in his life because he's a fourth line.

And that's how he got pretty much all of his interviews. He got maybe one or two through like a blind application. I don't even think it might've just been one, but a lot of people will feel like if I'm not applying to a million jobs a day, I'll never get one. And actually that can block their energy because they're draining themselves.

They're just not going about it in an aligned way because they haven't actually responded to that process. They're just pushing ahead because they feel like they need to. And I get it 'cause it's anxiety producing. You feel like if you don't do that, you're not gonna get what you need. But it's not necessarily true.

And there are ways to do this in energetic alignment that stops you from getting to that drained, frustrated place. So if there's something in your life where there's a very specific outcome that you need to achieve and you're feeling frustrated about it. Take a step back and think, is there a way that I could do this more in alignment with my design?

Am I actually responding to these things? Could I pull some of my energy back? It feels very scary because we're taught that we're supposed to beat down these doors, but there's actually probably some more productive, efficient ways of putting your desires out there and getting in contact with the right people or the right thing or whatever.

Because when you allow your aura to work for you, you typically don't need a. Thousand different options out there. You just need a couple, a few of the right things to come to you that allow you to respond and then you'll have exactly what you wanted. It's a very bad job market right now. Even though my husband has a lot of experience, he hasn't actually interviewed for jobs in like 20 years.

He's a little bit out of the game, so it's been a struggle in some ways. By working in alignment with his energy and relying on that fourth line profile, only applying for the things that he really felt a response to and maintaining that overall energy of being in a good place, being ready to move forward with something, not just being drained, still pursuing his passions on the side, taking plenty of time to do the things he enjoys.

So he was just in a good energetic place. When the right thing came along, he was very clear, could respond to it, take action, and he's found something that for now is a really good fit. So it's almost like we have to reframe this one to be that. It's not that we have to initiate or push to get what we want.

It's more so like if we push or. Drain ourselves. It's gonna take longer to get what we want and just really lead to these inconsistent results. And sap our energy, which is our most precious resource, and dull our magnetic aura. And we need that and just put us in this total loop of frustration. So these are the three that were on my mind today.

Hopefully that clarified how to deal with some of these things. How to re. Frame them. If you're interested in this topic of letting life come to you, allowing your aura to do its thing and work in its most natural, efficient way, check out the class that I made called How to Let Life Come to You. It's also available in a bundle.

That's an amazing deal. It's also part of the glow up. And getting it through there is pretty much like getting it free. So I put the link below if you would like to check any of those out, you can now add things to a cart on my site. And yeah, thank you for listening and I hope this helps you think about your magnetic aura in a different way.

See it as more powerful because it really is. And when you learn to live in alignment with it, it becomes much easier. To bring the things that you want into your life without stressing, without overthinking, by trusting your aura to bring things to you and your response to guide you the right way, and it just helps everything happens so much more efficiently and frustration free.

I will talk to you soon.
