31 Days of Finding Your Ego Amusing THE CHALLENGE: December 1-31 Watch your thoughts, emotions, reactions, temperaments - and other people's - like you're watching a comedy show. Don't take the character seriously. Find it amusing. The ego is performing. You're the audience. Laughing. WHAT IS AMUSEMENT? Not detachment. Not suppression. Not spiritual bypass. Amusement = witnessing with lightness. You see the pattern. You see the drama. You see the story. And instead of believing it... you're entertained by it. The character is hilarious once you stop believing you ARE the character. WHY AMUSEMENT? Because it's SOURCE recognizing itself playing: • You can't be amused BY something you're IDENTIFIED with • Amusement requires distance = witnessing = SOURCE • It's lighter than "observing" (too serious) • It's more playful than "awareness" (too heavy) • It's the fastest way to realize you're not the character The Throne Connection: A king finds court drama amusing. He doesn't get lost in it. He watches his advisors argue. Amusing. He watches his own thoughts about the kingdom. Amusing. He watches people's reactions to his decisions. Amusing. He's amused because he knows none of it touches who he actually is. THE DAILY PRACTICE: Each day, catch 3 moments of amusement: 1. YOUR THOUGHTS - Catch a thought and find it amusing • "Oh look, the ego thinks it needs to prove something again. Cute." • "There's the 'I'm not good enough' story. Classic." • "Watch this - the mind is about to catastrophize. Here it comes... yep, there it is. Hilarious." 2. YOUR EMOTIONS/REACTIONS - Catch an emotional reaction and be amused • "The character is triggered right now. Look at this performance." • "Anger showed up. It thinks it's so serious. Adorable." • "Anxiety is doing its thing. Same script, different day. Amusing." 3. OTHER PEOPLE - Catch someone else's ego and be amused (with compassion) • "They're performing so hard right now. I see you, ego." • "Watch them trying to control this situation. It won't work, but it's entertaining."

I can’t believe the abundance that surrounds me and I wasn't seeing it all along. Suddenly, everywhere I look, life is overflowing with more than enough. People, buildings, I look at the sky and I can't tell where it begins or ends, trees, cars filling the roads — all reminders that abundance isn’t rare. It’s normal. It’s the default setting of this universe. I walk into a mall, store after store, aisle after aisle, businesses selling almost the same thing — and yet every one of them exists, thrives, and finds its people. Nobody stood at the entrance and said, “You can’t open your business here because someone else is already doing it.” They simply showed up, claimed their space, and trusted that there is room for them, too. That’s the magic of abundance. The world keeps showing us in a thousand small ways, that there is more than enough for all of us. We just have to open our eyes… and then open our hearts to receive🌹.
