LLI 60 Resistance is a Portal – Iterating Your Way Into Flow & Creative Devotion

00:00:00: Iteration number 60 of the Love Louder podcast.

00:00:05: And I have an announcement for you today.

00:00:08: We keep on iterating.

00:00:11: And while this here in this podcast, if you have been listening in, it is a field of frequency.

00:00:17: It's spoken in timacy through words, through reflections, poetic sometimes, but still I

00:00:26: try to keep it as grounded, as sharp as possible.

00:00:30: And we're here in a quiet rebellion against the notion of you have to figure it out all

00:00:39: right away.

00:00:40: You have to be perfect right now or never.

00:00:43: You have to...

00:00:46: All sorts of things that we sometimes connect with when we produce something, when we start

00:00:52: creating because this is not the creative process.

00:00:56: It's iterative.

00:00:58: And what emerged from that field of spoken in timacy of this podcast is a written one.

00:01:08: I have started to write to write to write iterations every day.

00:01:15: And these are written iterations that you can find currently on my Facebook profile.

00:01:24: So I might move them at some point, but for now I wanted to keep it as simple as possible.

00:01:31: And as you know, we keep it as simple as possible with a certain frame, with a loose frame that

00:01:39: we chose, but that allows us to create.

00:01:45: Now what is happening is while this spoken podcast that you're listening to right now,

00:01:52: it is very dynamic.

00:01:54: It is very alive too.

00:01:56: It is very, very out of that certain day.

00:02:03: Of course, when I write them, the right orations or iterations, there is more refinement to

00:02:10: it.

00:02:11: While I cannot just jot down my ideas and post them because it's myself that doesn't

00:02:18: understand them in the future when I look back on it.

00:02:23: So I refine them and it gets more sharp in a way that you can reread it.

00:02:31: So when you listen to the podcast, you tune in into a frequency.

00:02:36: It can be your sanctuary.

00:02:38: It can be your place where you just unplug from the hustle of life and have a deep look

00:02:48: into your heart.

00:02:50: And while the core of the written iterations that you can find on my Facebook profile is

00:02:59: the same, of course, because they come through me, it's a very different feeling.

00:03:07: It's a different energy and you might be interested in checking them out.

00:03:16: Just type in my name, Hungshang, Christman, Christman and you will find either my profile

00:03:23: or my page on Facebook and you can just go and check it out.

00:03:27: just dive in and read and read them slowly.

00:03:32: And if you want to read them aloud for yourself,

00:03:36: speak it out, it is like a fine chocolate

00:03:41: that you want to have melt on your mouth.

00:03:45: And it's the same thing.

00:03:48: We go through the iterative process.

00:03:50: There will some loops be open and some others

00:03:54: will be closed in a different iteration.

00:03:56: This is what being alive looks like

00:04:00: that nothing is done forever, like now and unchangeable.

00:04:05: We do not stagnate, we evolve.

00:04:12: And that is what maybe is in for you too

00:04:18: that you can take it as encouragement,

00:04:23: as inspiration that it is possible to not be just one and done,

00:04:28: but to really make it public too, that process,

00:04:33: that you will look like a fool at some points.

00:04:36: You will not even look but feel like being a fool

00:04:40: at some points, you will get stuck and just don't know.

00:04:45: And that's okay because that makes us human

00:04:49: as long as we do not indulge in that.

00:04:52: Because that's when the suffering starts

00:04:54: and that's when the loops in the drama start.

00:04:57: And if you want that, stay there.

00:05:00: There's no problem without it, with it.

00:05:02: But very often time, there will come a point

00:05:06: where we just want to snap out of that,

00:05:08: where we want to remove that friction

00:05:12: and that creation flows through us.

00:05:14: And that is what happens, happened to me with this podcast.

00:05:20: And the written iterations, because I had this idea

00:05:25: but I was resisting for a few days.

00:05:28: I was resisting and then I just jumped in the same thing

00:05:33: as with this spoken podcast.

00:05:35: So there will never be the point of no resistance

00:05:39: as long as you're in this form of a human body

00:05:41: because that makes it so exciting too.

00:05:45: The question is, do you lead with it?

00:05:47: Do you lead with resistance?

00:05:50: Or do you lead with surrender?

00:05:52: That's it for today.

00:05:59: I hope you just enjoy this.

00:06:02: Check it out on my Facebook page.

00:06:05: Put in my name, Hongshan Christman.

00:06:09: Send me a message, my DMs are open.

00:06:13: So I would love to read or hear from you.

00:06:19: It's here to be a field to be co-created.

00:06:23: So you're in it too.

00:06:25: It's never about one person alone.

00:06:29: It can all only be created through multiple channels.

00:06:34: And maybe it's time for you to step up

00:06:40: to remove that friction and surprise yourself.

00:06:47: Love a little louder.

00:06:49: Lots of love to you, Shang.
