Level 3 Disturbance: The Fork in the Road
A Level 3 disturbance is more complex; it’s a fork in the road or a distraction that tempts you away from your path. These disturbances often come in the form of opportunities or decisions that look appealing but are actually traps meant to test your dedication to your original goal. They are designed to make you question your choices and examine whether your commitment to your path is strong enough to resist deviation.
Example: Imagine you’re building a business. A Level 3 disturbance might be an offer to take a lucrative job in a different field that promises immediate financial security but would require you to abandon your business project. The job looks good on paper—it might even align with some of your skills—but it doesn’t align with your true purpose. The disturbance tests whether you will take the seemingly easier path or stay committed to the original vision of your business.
Level 3 disturbances require discernment. They test whether you can see beyond the surface appeal of an option and stay true to your path. It’s about recognizing what’s truly in alignment with your goals versus what is a shiny distraction. Overcoming these disturbances builds clarity, focus, and commitment to your journey. You learn to trust your intuition and stay aligned with your true desires, even when faced with tempting alternatives.
