A short motivational talk (YouTube video by Phil Powis) encouraging detachment from things one likes so that one can better enjoy the present moment and open to new possibilities. The speaker uses the metaphor of life as an upward spiral—each cycle greater than the last—and warns that clinging to current pleasures blocks the next level of flow.
We often talk about letting go the negative, letting go of fears and our limitations. But today I invite you to detach from the things that you like. If we don't cling to the things that we like, we are actually able to enjoy more the present moment. And we open ourselves to more possibilities. The natural flow of life you can visualize like a spiral that goes upward. And the next cycle is always greater. So if you attach yourself because you love so much what you have right now, you don't allow the next level to flow to you. So open yourself to possibilities and flow with the magic of life that the next cycle is always greater.
