In the study of vortices, there is a point in the vortex that is considered to be the lowest energy field or the grounding. It is the known as the zero point. In a lot of cases it is considered to be a vacuum, a point in space that is completely empty and void of mass. Moment to moment I am presented with opportunities to choose between the positive and the negative. My position when making that choice is always from the zero point. It could be viewed as the line that separates the fork in the road in any decision. When presented with opportunities, I have the choice to act or not to act, to do or not to do, to be or not to be. There is a point right between the decisions known as neutral ground. I call it the zero point.

It is evident that the zero point is a monumental opportunity in my life to do things differently. It exists in everything I do. Every decision I make. Below I have drafted examples of how it applies in the many areas of life.  ( See figure 1a). It is only possible to operate from the zero point when a person becomes aware and is 100% in the moment. The goal in life is to live slightly above zero or better. I call this choosing up! As I choose up, I am literally choosing the language or the choice of increase.  What I know about life is that it is impossible to remain in the neutral ground. For if I stay in the zero, I become a zero. I get to choose moment to moment to moment. How exciting is that? If I didn’t have the negative, how could I choose the positive? If I didn’t have the positive, I could never choose the negative. Life could not exist if we had one and not the other. I could not exist!

For example purposes, imagine I made a choice that really isn’t working for me in my life. Imagine a big buffet table full of different options. Let’s say that I put on my plate a choice that doesn’t fit my moral character. Man, that choice would sure taste better with a heaping spoonfull of guilt. Well, now that I have the guilt, I get to add the pain. I can’t have guilt without pain, so I throw that on my plate. Well, pain is no good without suffering. So I grab the beatup stick and serve myself a healthy dish of suffering and on and on and on. Well in hindsight, everything I threw on my plate was from the negative side of the table. How would it look if I made the same initial choice and this time, instead of adding the heaping serving of guilt, I added love for myself. From that space, what if I knew it wasn’t working to make that choice and served myself some learning.? Do you get the picture?  If I operate from the zero point in every moment, even if I chose guilt, is it not possible to serve myself from the positive side of the table?

How do I prepare myself to be ready to choose up, even when I am not 100% in the moment? That’s great! I feel it comes from planning ahead while I am in the moment, whenever that moment is. By planning ahead and making choices prior to the event, I allow myself to choose up. I also get to recognize the chains, and break the chains. If I subscribe to being sad, then sadness comes with depression. Depression is accompanied by a sick feeling. That sick feeling causes me to be tired and so on. At any moment, I can break that chain while in the Zero Point and choose differently. When presented with the opportunity to be joyful or sad, I can choose joyful. Depressed and enthusiastic? I can choose enthusiasm.

By choosing up in every moment I am making it easier to choose up the next time. By choosing down, I make it easier to choose down the next time. I am here to create abundance in every aspect of my life. I choose up! I challenge you to do the same. To get started, be aware moment to moment of the words you are using, the feelings you are choosing, the account balances and so on. Be sure to stay above zero point and watch the miracles come.

Choose Up!
