Thinking about doing something is not the same as doing it. The only way to become good at something is to simply do it. Not just think and dream about doing it, but actually do it, because there is no substitute for the experience. You can’t skip through the phases of first being bad at it, not knowing, falling, and learning, but the sooner you start, the sooner you’ll become better at it. There are things you will have to go through and by waiting for the right time, you’re just prolonging these phases but you will have to learn them either way. Before your habitual thoughts, states, and behaviors take over, pause for a moment to reflect on:
This practice can help you reset your mind, body, and soul by remind yourself that each day you can make a completely different choice than the day before. We are not meant to live in states of overwhelm, anxiety, and lethargy. We are meant to grow, learn, and evolve through our challenges, not be defeated by them. We naturally long for playfulness, ease, connection, and meaning. Our desire for these experiences is not to be judged, dismissed, or ignored, but honored and followed. If you notice that you live daily in states of anxiety, overwhelm, stress, lethargy, depression, etc. consider finding professional help. Your mind, body, and soul want to free themselves from these energy sucking states and want to soar into a more fun and relaxed way of living. Our imagination is so much more powerful than our reality. By imagining something that's not real, we create real feelings in the present moment. Let's say you imagine a future outcome not going your way, or if you think about an uncomfortable memory that took place at some point, you will start to evoke feelings as if that event is happening in the present moment. Any feelings we evoke by imagining, either positive or negative situations, are real. The same goes for something that's wanted, something that you desire. So when you imagine desired outcome or an experience that you really want to manifest in your life, you're going to start creating those feelings that will match that event you’re imagining. By knowing how powerful our imagination is , you can be intentional about where you let your mind focus. True answers come to us from peace and clarity, not anxiety. Most of us spend way more time feeding our anxieties and negative predictions than we spend nurturing our possibilities. Anxious mind is trying to analyze, overthink, predict, and solve all sorts of imagined problems and by doing so, it creates more of them. It creates inflexibility and limits our choices. When we’re in the state of anxiety, we’re not able to resolve or make sense of anything, because we’re not able to see the situation clearly. We’re s feeding the negative predictions and we’re trying to protect ourselves from them. True answers don’t come from anxiety, but from inner peace and clarity. Clarity, unlike anxiety, show us choices, flexibility, and possibilities. It leads us to the most loving answer even if that answer is uncomfortable. |
