Thinking about the vastness of the universe can drive us to insanity if we let it.
Many things occurring simultaneously. Billions of people with different dreams and aspirations. The lingering unknown and eternal “why?” which seems to plague many.
We’ve become more connected than ever before. We can visit places we’ve never stepped foot in virtually through the internet. We can meet many different kinds of people. There’s an infinite pool of information that we have access to in the palm of our hands. Why do many feel so lost when there is so much possibility out there?
My guess is that we’ve reached a point where there’s just too much to take in. Our minds constantly filtering a barrage of information from different sources with different agendas around the clock. Constantly wondering if there’s a new hack or software out there that can do all the work for us instead of diving in. Scattering our thoughts and focus by consuming cheap vices and entertainment that drain our time and energy.
Most seem to be overwhelmed by options. Either never getting traction from being all over the place or staying too closed minded and rigid in order to narrow their own options and remain comfortable.
It’s important to take the active approach with the dozens of daily choices you’re faced with making. Have a vision for where you want to end up and live congruently with that image. Ignoring or not making a choice is also a choice. These decisions are unavoidable.
Instead of getting overwhelmed by a variety of factors that you have little control over, decide what rooms and places you want to be in. View the world as the abundant space it is. Living your dream life has never been more possible, regardless of the constant despair portrayed in the mainstream.
Vividly imagine what could be possible and then zero in your focus on the key areas of your life you want to improve. Combining a few useful skills will make you more capable overall. Embrace the work that’s required to get you to your destination. Thoughts without action are just stored potential. Make use of the information you have.
Going through the motions is required to reach new levels. Prove yourself to be worthy instead of fearing what could happen.
Transmute any anxiety into excitement.
Why wouldn’t it work out? You have a plan. You’re envisioning your life when the mission is complete. You have a purpose. Change your perception around and start taking action.
You never know where you could end up.
The element of chance plays a very important role in life and adds the right excitement if we are in the proper frame of mind. Sit there on the sidelines or roll the dice and see what happens.
“Fortune favors the bold” is a very famous and true quote for good reason. The people that seem to reach heights beyond their imagination are the ones that were courageous enough to dive in and adapt to any challenges thrown their way. They recognized the possibilities, focused in on their mission, put themselves out there and took on significant risks that paid off in the end.
Accumulating experience over time results in more influence over your environment. We become stronger, smarter and more adaptable. Skills that once seemed out of reach become second nature. Repetition and refinement help us to become much more effective and efficient.
Flowing with the present moment is a key component that'll let fortune work in your favor. Life is full of surprises, good and bad. By rolling with the punches we can set up that knockout that will win us the fight. When opportunity arises, don’t hesitate. Trust your instincts and move forward. Strike while the iron is hot, you never know where you’ll end up.
Thinking things like “what’s the point?”, “nothing matters”, “there’s too much going on already”, will just lock you deeper into the mental prison you’ve created for yourself. This mindset will reinforce itself until it starts to become psychologically, and then physically, inescapable.
Step outside of those fictional walls and start going the extra mile.
That life you dream about is out there.
Someone is living it because they understood the possibilities and weren’t overwhelmed by the grandness of it all. They weren’t “lucky”, they just allowed luck to work it’s magic by constantly staying in motion and getting things done.
Every second that goes by grants you another chance to make another choice. You can continue floating in the wind or you can start taking control of your trajectory.
Each choice made in the present moment dictates the choices that will be given to us in the future.
