Perhaps, throughout the course of your life, people have sincerely appreciated how you allow them to feel safe and comfortable in your presence. You possess something special that most people don’t seem to naturally possess – You are Sentient (as opposed to programmed/reactive).
In fact, in Your Reality you are probably the only person you know who has this unique Aura/ability, and that sets you apart from others and gives you a unique sense of purpose.

Something that I’ve realized as I’ve grown on my spiritual journey is that I have always been very Conscious. I’ve always given my best Energy to others, and people seem to be very pleased when I give them my Energy/attention. In turn, that makes me feel very pleased with my Self, it massages my ego, and gives me a unique sense of purpose as well.
However, this “strength” that I have has also been my most subtle, sinnister, and debilitating weakness. I have only recently begun to realize how I have built a complex around having this abundant “Energy”, and I feel so very proud of myself when others “come after me” for a piece of it.
In situations where I was allowing myself to be unfairly taken advantage of by others, especially with jobs and intimate relationships – I actually felt somewhat proud that they picked me – of all people – to take advantage of.
What I didn’t realize is that I was building a spiritual personality that actually believed I had to experience lack and limitation, so as to never upset those close to me who expected me to demonstrate and agree with their own very self-limiting beliefs.

If you are anything like me you are probably also becoming more aware of how “needy” some people in Your Reality appear at times. And I don’t mean this in an insulting way – it’s just the way that I have discovered most people operate/have been programmed by their environment.
Most people seem to be in a constant state of manic dysphoria. They need someone generous around them because they don’t have the time or energy to be that way – they are far too worried about their struggles and self-limiting beliefs…
They probably appreciate someone like You, because you see them suffering, as they continue upholding all of these imaginary standards that they set for themselves. You give them some recognition, let them vent, or perhaps show them that you sincerely care because you are uniquely capable of empathizing with others.
When I was a child I noticed this early on – and so I would dutifully make sure to pay homage to the egos of those I loved. It made me feel safe and I know that it made them feel safe as well.
As I grew older I used this coping mechanism with everyone I dealt with. I was always submissive and respectful toward my bosses, even (and especially) when they took to expressing their displeasure with me.
I never stood up for myself when someone else’s displeasure with me, or expectation of me to “give” them something, appeared to be unreasonable or disproportionate. I always took the displeasure of others like a champ, and had a very hard time saying “no” because I didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings.
I have only recently begun to realize that for all of my life I have had this uniquely powerful and abundant energy, but I have been giving it away by being submissive and letting other people control me. Perhaps because I felt like I needed to “save” them by minimizing my Self…

I have a feeling that I am closely mirroring your own experience when it comes to the nature of other people – how they seem to want to take whatever they can from you. How you might even have a complex because of this. Where you minimize what you allow yourself to achieve/experience in your own life, because you don’t want to appear to invalidate someone else who wants to keep you in their “bubble” of suffering/limitation.
It’s important to know that, despite the neediness and desperation of others, you are still entitled to your abundance. You can still be happy when others are not.
You didn’t cause another person to be needy or unhappy, even if they believe that you did. It was their choice, and at the Soul level they are completely aligned with whatever negative or weak emotion they project, and they are actually enjoying acting it out (on a subtle spiritual level).
You can still succeed at whatever you want while listening to others vent about where they think they “failed”. Your happiness and success doesn’t take away from others – even if they falsely believe that it does, and even if they project that belief onto you subconsciously.

In “Who Controls Reality, Really?” I made the argument that Reality is actually Infinite, and limitation is an illusion. Everyone is getting precisely what they want at the Soul level at all times. We are all just incredibly good actors, living out a scripted dream we planned ahead of Time.
I asserted my belief that this world is a virtual reality experience where people are allowed to trick themselves into feeling like they are suffering or experiencing lack, because we are Living Gods and can make ourselves feel however we please. We can also decide to stop experiencing limitation whenever we want, even in the middle of the dream.

Have you ever encountered someone who didn’t appear very intelligent or sentient, but seemed to possess a great deal of abundance? Maybe they have a lot of money, or appear genuinely happy and have a lot of worldly things or a great family/relationship…
That’s because there is no threshold for experiencing happiness or abundance. You just have to believe that you are entitled to it. You must demand your abundance from the world and be fully committed to it. You must be willing to suffer an ego death and to sacrifice all of your self-limiting beliefs.
The world will test you, but since you are a Living God the world must eventually re-arrange itself to give you that abundance if you demand it.
Well, the same goes for if you subconsciously believe it is your job to suffer for other people…
And this is where my “Savior Complex” has severely limited me in a worldly sense. I didn’t letmyself have and do the things that I knew in my heart I wanted, because I was surrounded by people programmed to believe they must suffer and have their limitation validated by others (by me).
Perhaps I am still mirroring your own experience. It is important to remember that you are entitled to whatever you desire. The people around you will actually appear to conspire against you when you align yourself with this belief/start demanding your abundance from the world.
Don’t jynx anything by telling those other people what you plan to gain, just believe that you are entitled to it, as if your very existence depends on it.
The people in your life who drain your energy, and believe that you should suffer with them may lack the Sentience and level of Consciousness that you possess, but that does not give them any right to hold you back from your Life’s Purpose. Your success will never cause the suffering of another person, so long as you are humble and doing it for your Self, and not just for your ego or to feel superior to others.
—
And what’s the point of feeling superior to others if they are nothing more than a programmed reflection of your Consciousness?
Remember that Reality is a perfect reflection of your Consciousness, and Your Soul has already mapped out Your Life from beginning to end. It’s just a hyper-realistic experience, and everything/everyone else is a programmed reaction. Even your own thoughts/feelings/actions were mapped out by your Soul before this life began.
If you are experiencing limitation because you are like me and developed a spiritual personality with a very subtle savior complex, it’s time to re-write that script, which you can do at any Moment.
You don’t need to “save” anyone else, you need to take (back) control of your life, and unapologetically chase what will make your Heart happy.
Believe me, if someone else really needed you to “save” them or suffer for/with them, there is already another reality where you have a Shadow self acting out “saving” that person. But you don’t need to worry about that reality, that’s just proof that you are an infinite spiritual Being.
The rest of Your life, from this moment on, is Your choice. You don’t owe anyone else anything. This world answers to You and You alone. I might as well just be a virtual projection of Your Mind, that was temporarily created to remind you of this fact by writing this article.
So here is your reminder…
You don’t have to suffer or spend a certain amount of time sacrificing anything to experience what you desire. You don’t answer to the weaknesses or depravity of other people. You just need to believe that you are entitled to whatever it is that you desire.
Just look at some of the people who have abundance, what do they have that you don’t have?? Nothing – many of them are completely un-Conscious – the opposite of You.
Perhaps You have been paying the Karma of other people for far too long, and that is why you stumbled upon this article…
Perhaps, now is the time to take back what has always been Yours.
Let’s thank our savior complexes for what they’ve taught us, and respectfully ask that they find someone else to impose limitation on, in some other Reality, far far away, that isn’t this one…
