“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I do not want to go into long explanations about tonight’s earlier material. The advice is practical. Behind the habits, however, lie beliefs concerning creativity and the world.

It means trusting yourself, following your own rhythms, riding the thrust, the aggressive and joyful thrust of your creativity full blast, so to speak. But it also means no artificial rules. It is simplistic to say that you need food to work, and yet going out into the world in such a manner does indeed become its own creative endeavor when it is clearly embarked upon. If you follow my advice, a natural balance will result. The chores will get done, but they will no longer be chores. Your guests will be enjoyed because you will see them when you naturally feel so inclined.

This does not mean you can’t plan ahead. It means not being mechanical. There is no need either to dread the summer. On any important level it is a ridiculous way to behave—each of you—particularly in anticipation. There at least Ruburt has been somewhat more flexible, taking advantage of the lovely dawn hours when the world is still, for quiet work.

Then you do not resent the afternoon rackets, but accept neighborhood noises as the world’s activity, and it becomes—though you will not believe me—a refreshing and needed counterpoint. Otherwise you find yourselves never fully pleased with what you are doing while you are doing it, and caught up in circles of resentment. You deny yourselves, say, guests when you feel like having them, because you have already done chores that did not particularly need to be done, because you thought you should, when you felt like working.

Do not compare yourselves with people in the so-called work-a-day world. This is a gross error. Your challenges, rewards, interests and ways of life do not match. I am not suggesting that you turn your life upside down, necessarily, and work at night. On the other hand, you do have that freedom with time that others do not possess, and it is one that you overlook.
