Working with our Ideals to approach our day to day activities is an ongoing practice. One way to apply our Ideals to our questions, opportunities and challenges is to use this three question model, first proposed by Hugh Lynn Cayce.
What have we here? This is an invitation to step back and see the circumstance with perspective and objectivity. Using the witnessing compassion of mindfulness and dropping the facticity to get at the essence of the energetic situation we are facing.
What does my Ideal have to say about it? Our Ideals have different facets—aspects of our highest and best self that act as our support team when we remember to consult them. Drop into the energy of your Ideal and let it speak to you.
What is one thing I can do? We don’t need to know the whole game plan! If we are willing to take the next best step, in accordance with the guidance of our Ideal—our highest and best—then we can approach the situation with confidence and hope.
