Seriously?
There's been a huge lie that has been running your entire life. Problem is, you might not even know it.
Don't worry it's not your fault.
This lie touches everyones life and no one is free from its grasp.
So I'm here to help you make this one change, and if you can seriously take this one tip to heart your entire world will change.
I know because it changed mine.
The big lie is this: there's a place and time in your life where everything will magically "turn out" and you will be happy.
Let me explain further.
Imagine you are in a rowboat heading towards this "island where it all turns out." This island is the land of where all your dreams, hopes, aspirations, and goals come true...and when you get there...you will be happy. But there's one major problem with all of this...
This island doesn't exist.
This place is an absolute mirage.
Despite the fact it is a mirage, it's incredibly enticing and will keep you rowing your boat towards it as long as you live because you think that this is where your happiness exists.
But it gets worse. It's not just about rowing your boat to an imaginary place that's bad, it's about what this mentality brings out in you. Living this way makes you strive on a timeline to achieve something and makes you incredibly narrow minded. Everything is about progress. Everything must go "according to plan."
It will bring out anxiety, fear, doubt, worry, and pretty much every other negative emotion in the book because you aren't slowing down at all and constantly seeking a place you will never get to.
THIS IS EXHAUSTING.
However, most people never get the chance to really consider that this is the way that they are living their life and exit this habit. They just continue on rowing and never quite make it to where they wanted to go.
What do you think mid-life crisis is all about?
So what is the shift that needs to take place?
Be an amoeba. A what?! Yes, an amoeba...you know those ever-shifting microscopic creatures that you probably studied in some science class along the way? Ok I guess I'll have to explain further.
Start to view your life as a living, breathing, morphing, adapting and adjusting entity. When you do this, you can see the world as very colorful and fluid.
But it gets even better.
When you start living in this way the best sides of you are brought out and you can truly live in the present moment.
When you exit the future and show up in the present moment, you are living in the only place where you can actually be. You can't exist anywhere else (we try sometimes). You show up right here and that's when the magic starts to happen.
If you can really slow down and connect you will see incredibly changes in your life.
Everything is possible when you live in this type of world.
Ask yourself right now, "What's actually here? What's really going on?"
Stop rowing.
