Yes...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 is incredibly powerful and no one has been left out of its grasp.
Knowing this lie and what it does to your life can literally change your world.
Not joking. How do I know? 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.
If you can take a second to think of your "future" and all of the great things that live in that place...you are entering into the place of "the land where it all turns out." When you think of this place, often you will start to feel warm fuzzy feelings of happiness. You've arrived.
Unfortunately, this place doesn't exist.
This place is an absolute mirage.
It's the sexiest mirage you've ever seen and it will keep you rowing and rowing and rowing until your arms fall off because you think that's where your happiness lives.
Living this way brings out an incredibly messy lifestyle. It puts you on a timeline where you focus on the black and white side of life, on progress, on a strictly future driven mentality and that will cause great amounts of discomfort.
Living this way will bring out anxiety, fear, worry and other negative emotions that bubble up when you refuse to connect with the present moment and are constantly living in the future.
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?
You have to model your life after the amoeba. What?! The amoeba? Yes...let me 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 live this way, the best is brought out in you. You are able to focus on what's really developing in you and how you can grow and change. You connect more with the present. You show up as who you really are. You connect more with others.
Start living in the present. You can spend your entire life rowing to this place you will never get to or you can connect with what is right in front of you.
If you can grasp this concept, and really slow down a bit to understand just how much you've been rowing in your boat, you will see incredible changes in your life. You will connect with people more, connect with yourself, become more grounded, allow happiness to find you in the moment, and a slew of other fantastic things.
Everything is possible when you live in this type of world.
Ask yourself right now, "What's actually here? What's really going on?"
End your rowing.
