We waste a lot of time waiting for reassurance, proof, and validation that we’re on the right track in life.
“When I get that new job, THEN I’ll have a purpose.”
“When I lose five pounds, THEN I’ll have willpower.”
“When I make x amount of money, THEN I’ll be successful.”
This is a waste of your precious time.
Chilling out in struggle, lack and wishful thinking WHILE you’re waiting for things to change is not going to help you get the results you want.
Here’s what to do instead:
When you feel yourself waiting/wanting/longing, take notice of how your body feels.
Does it feel heavy, burdened, maybe even a bit desperate?
If the answer is YES, then do these 3 things:
1. Close your eyes and imagine feeling light, content, fulfilled.
2. Make a conscious choice to linger in this space for a few seconds.
3. Ask yourself, “What would it be like if I waited for what I wanted here?”
REPEAT. REPEAT. REPEAT.
It should gradually get easier to return to this place of satisfaction and fulfillment.
You don’t need to do anything.
You don’t need to say anything.
You don’t need to think anything.
You simply need to shift your energy by using your imagination,
It takes a boatload of bravery to feel something without proof—to be successful, purposeful, and happy when you don’t yet have what you want. But this is the secret that no one is talking about.
And you’re not only brave—you’re ready. xo
