Understand How to Place Your Energy on What You DO Want…

It is so easy in this day and age to get caught up in conversations about all of the things which are not working in our lives, and in the world. And therein lies the challenge. When we get caught up in these conversations, we are actually perpetuating, reinforcing and expanding on all of the things which are not working in our lives, and in the world. With every word, thought, and emotion we create more of what we are focusing on that is not working. 

However, as in any challenging situation, there is always an opportunity. You have heard me say it so many times before, ‘Challenges provide opportunities for growth’, and ‘everything happens ‘for you’, not ‘to you’. Therefore, these challenging conversations also provide us with an opportunity to create something new in your lives. 

This may appear on the surface to be a somewhat Polyanna-ish perspective. Pollyanna always saw the good in every situation. And is there anything wrong with that? 

You Create Your Own Reality

We create our own realities, therefore, why not create realities which work out in our best interest? And if everyone else is doing the same, then are we not guaranteed great outcomes for all? Call me a Pollyanna, but I think, yes! 

Focus on what you DO want in your life. This wakes up the genius in each of us. This allows us to tap into the quantum where all possibilities exist. This allows us to create what we really want in our lives. 

What You Focus on Expands!

So don’t think about what you do not want. Or else you will get what you do not want. Focus on what you do want, and you will get that instead!

Like any habit, it may take a while for you to change your approach. However, remember that bad habits are easy to develop, but hard to live with. Whereas, good habits may be harder to develop, but easier to maintain. 

So start now to be aware of your thoughts, words, emotions, and actions. Be aware of where you are focusing your energy. And be proactive about focusing your energy on what you DO want. Think about the good things. Find the positive in every person, situation, and event. Things always work out for you, so don’t worry, or fret, or think. or talk about about any conflicting scenarios. 

Use your energy to create what you want. Use your energy to be happy. Use your energy to be loving, and kind and positive. 

‘If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours…’. Henri David Thoreau

In every moment of every day, place your energy on what you do want. It may take a few hours, days, or weeks for this habit to stick. And you may forget from time to time, and fall back into the old way of thinking. No worries. Just catch yourself in the act, and then get back on track. 

Everything will work out just as you planned when you trust, when you believe, and when you take action that leads you in the direction of your dreams!

So start now, and have fun with it! 

There are no ordinary moments, so savor the Journey!
