THE WHITE TIGER: VERTICAL TIME 2.0 - "There are No Words..."

The Next Level

You only experience ONE Reality - Yours. You decide, consciously or unconsciously, in Vertical Time, what that Reality will be moment by moment by moment.

Next Level

Of all of the tools offered by The White Tiger to date, Vertical Time is the most Powerful by far. The first post introduced the principal (Vertical Time 1.0). The next post addressed the issue of Doubt (A Route Without Doubt), as this has the greatest potential to pose a barrier to working with this tool. This post and the next will expand the understanding of Vertical Time.

If you are, or have been, reading The White Tiger, you will have discovered that there are consistent principals that are both intertwined throughout, and wrap back around, the content, often coming full circle. The subject of Vertical Time is no exception. The principles of Vertical Time find their roots in earlier posts. Pulling these principles into the application of Vertical Time allows advancement to the Next Level.

Moving Sand

If you recall the Replacing the Motherboard Series (Default Setting, Intention, Planning, Implementation, Celebration), you will recall that Desire is NOT Intention. As previously stated, “Desire has never moved a grain of sand.”

Desire and Ideas are thoughts without ACTION. They can be formed in the mind, even ruminated over, however until you have moved from Desire or Idea to Intention, nothing is going to change.

You may have a Desire to address a problem, as well as a brilliant idea for a solution, however, until you DO something/Set the Intention/Take Action - a Desire and an Idea it will remain.

What moves you from Desire and Idea (Inaction) to Intention, the first critical Action? (Refer to the Motherboard Series: Intention)

Contemplate this for a moment…

There must be a driving force that pushes the Desire or Idea forward into momentum.

That driving force is an inner YEARNING, strong enough to create Action. A YEARNING strong enough to be perceived as a NEED.

We are rarely moved by ideas and desires, however we can easily be moved by something that is perceived as a NEED.

Once we perceive something as a NEED, we can metaphorically move mountains to obtain it. We can easily move sand.

There are No Words

YEARNING…let’s contemplate that for a moment. Yearning is a feeling - a deep-seated feeling that persists, pushing towards, even demanding, resolution. Resolution will/must require ACTION.

Here is the most important thing about Yearning - it is nonverbal. It is non-cortical.

Yearning morphs into Intention. Intention is nonverbal. It is doing/action, which no longer operates in the realm of words.

Contemplating the path of your Yearning often leads to visualization, imagination, imagery, and feelings pertaining to the desired goal, ie the perfect recital, the flawless high jump, the totally successful job interview, etc.

Vertical Time does not follow your verbal, and deeply cortical, assessment of your Reality. Vertical Time follows the 90 percent - all that is non-verbal. This is why it is such a Powerful tool that can be used in the Rewiring process.

Vertical Time will always follow your inner Yearning, no matter what that means - good or bad, conscious or unconscious. If you Yearn for belonging at any cost; you will have belonging at whatever cost you are willing to pay. Your Reality will continue to follow that trajectory, even if it is self destructive.

This has nothing whatsoever to do with cortical rational thought. In Vertical Time, the 90 percent will be making the moment by moment choices to perpetuate whatever is required to meet the yearned for and perceived need.

In Vertical Time, There are No Words.

In other words, we all follow Vertical Time every day - every moment - of our lives. The kicker is learning to be in charge of it.
