It's all about how we “fall in love with the method” – external triggers that make us feel alive and vibrant. But here's the thing: those methods only awaken something already within us. Join me as we explore the transformative power of choosing ourselves and embracing all of the painful and messy parts of our journeys. Come stand in possibility with me, and make this the moment that everything changes for you. Discover: Why we fall in love with “the method” and why it often takes us away from experiencing depth The importance of facing your pain instead of running from it The power of choice: choosing to fall in love with yourself rather than the method 00:00 Intro 00:23 Falling in love with the method 03:06 Relationship to death 05:11 Removing what’s not you 08:35 Unconditional love is not equal to unconditional tolerance 10:10 Find the methods that bring you alive 12:19 Your choices will impact how you feel about yourself Links: Create The Love Newsletter: https://mark-groves.mykajabi.com/newsletter Mark Groves Substack: https://markgroves.substack.com Create The Love Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/createthelove @createthelove Mark’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsmarkgroves @itsmarkgroves Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/createthelove @createthelove Sponsors: Cozy Earth | Use code GROVES for 40% off sitewide at cozyearth.com Create the Love Cards: Use code CTLCARDS15 for 15% off at createthelove.com/cards
