The devil you know

You may wonder why it’s so hard to change. Why so much resistance to this change process when you rationally know it will be for the best?

You want to be magnetic, yet there is extreme resistance to it. So many defense mechanisms are stopping you from projecting your energy.

The reason is simple, and it’s summarized in this old saying: better the devil you know than the devil you don’t.

You are already used to what you are and have. It’s much more comfortable for your whole system to stay the same. We seek comfort and habituation, and for that, we develop defense mechanisms to ensure it.

These defense mechanisms and habituation can take several forms. Comfort is about more than staying in your home and not doing much.

Your “comfort zone” can be precisely in avoiding deeper contact with yourself and constantly seeking external stimulation. For example, constant partying and traveling can be a defense mechanism. Yet, continually staying at home can be a defense mechanism for someone else.

It’s up to you to understand how these defense mechanisms happen in you. What is the devil, you know? How does it manifest inside of you? What’s it stopping you from doing? What’s the devil you don’t know here?

Notice how you are being pushed to do the same things repeatedly (even if they take a different clothing).

That’s why we have a course like The Unblocking Process to allow you to feel exactly how this manifests inside you.
