Getting More Out of Life

"If everybody thought before they spoke, the silence would be deafening." -George Barzan
One of my most prominent mentors in life, Michael Roads, says: “there is nothing outside of Self”. With this he means more than I can write in this ezine. The gist of it is that we create and allow everything that happens in our lives, good or bad. We either actively create the situation, or we allow it to happen to us, without doing something about it.
I admit that this is a pretty big statement, but there you go. My Knowareness Principles are all about taking responsibility for our lives, both personally and professionally. Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) teaches the same, buy the way: we create our reality through our senses.
In light of this, have you ever realized that the current so-called “global financial crisis” is purely man-made, and therefore can also be man-unmade? Outside of us, human beings, there is no crisis going on. The sun still rises and sets, the birds are still chirping, we still drive cars, we still buy stuff, we still live somewhere, etc.
Understand me correctly, I am not saying that there is nothing going on. What I AM saying is that whatever is going on right now (and for some people it is pretty bad), it is brought about by our thoughts and feelings about the future.
You can hear it everywhere: FEAR about the FUTURE economic situation has created the massive sell-out on the stock market.
Now, what is FEAR? Fear is a combination of a bundle of thoughts about a potential future, combined with a negative feeling about that potential future. Mark my emphasis on POTENTIAL. The feared future has not happened yet. No-one really knows if it is going to happen. The total opposite of the feared potential future may be the one coming true…..But still, the fear is there, and we start to act upon our thoughts and emotions: let’s get out of the stock market before our fears come true!
And –surprise, surprise- what happens? Our fears come true, because we acted upon them. It’s the classis example of the self-fulfilling prophecy.
It’s applied NLP, combined with some Law of Attraction principles: our thoughts create a physiological response, which in turn creates a feeling. The whole lot together creates an emotion in us, which makes us act in a certain fashion. Whether our initial thoughts are based upon facts or conjecture doesn’t matter. We still feel and we still act!
It’s about time that we as a species start to wake up and observe what we are doing. There is no outside force at play, that suddenly creates a recession. The “share market” is not some sort of foreign thing that does what it pleases. It is controlled by traders, human beings, who act on behalf of their clients, again human beings, who are panicking about future losses, thereby creating a roller coaster ride. The same with “the economy”. That is not an entity over which we don’t have any say. We ARE the economy, is my opinion. Our manufacturing, spending, saving, consuming, etc, dictates the economy.
The Law of Attraction, in both personal and professional settings, is pretty simple: whatever we focus on with intent and emotion has the tendency to become reality. Just look at what has happened over the last couple of weeks. Fears about a recession actually bring on a recession. Now if that is true, we can just as easily turn it around. Thoughts about a prosperous future, thought with intent and emotion, will bring that future about. Same rule, same application.
Of course there is something like “global consciousness”, so there may be forces at play that go beyond what we as individuals can influence. Nevertheless, I encourage you to –in your own circle of life- be as balanced as possible, combined with a persistent focus on what it is you DO want from your professional and personal life, not on what you DO NOT want. If enough people can stay cool, calm and collected, we’ll sit this ride out easily. On the other hand, if you like your life to be in a massive roller coaster, with good and bad parts, well, you may want to join the masses……
Set a Landmarc:
Firstly: Where in your personal and professional life are you ruled by your (in this case: negative) emotions, sometimes making decisions without really having thought the situation through? Where have you done so in the past? Have there been moments where you said to yourself: that was a somewhat too rash decision……? I may have chosen otherwise if I had given the situation more thought…..Make a firm commitment to act differently in the future, taking at least 3 more deep breaths before you react.
Secondly: do you find you are often planning your future based upon what you FEAR may happen if you don’t do something about it now? If so, realize that you are given your fear immense power. There’s nothing wrong with that, but it may yield you unwanted results. Commit to, from now on, planning your life based more upon what you would LIKE to happen in the future. You’ll increase your chances of actually getting just that, and will be way more motivated.
Thirdly: become more of an observer of “worldly news”. My life has not been affected at all by the global crisis. In fact, I have the busiest weeks ever ahead in my practice……only my THOUGHTS about my potential future will bring about a change in my practice; that’s my deep conviction. The more you can stay neutral to what seems to be happening, the more you will have a neutral, balanced life, unaffected by worldly crises.
Lastly: look at the medium to long term in your life. Even experienced stock market traders know that. If you look at too short periods of time, you will find your emotions going up and down, up and down. If you look at long terms averages, you will be way more stable emotionally, which will improve the quality of your thoughts, and therefore the quality of your results.
There’s a lot more to say about this, but let me finish by reiterating that going along with the global emotional waves usually doesn’t lead to stable and uplifting thoughts and emotions (just look at the current climate in the stock market). Mastering the Observer Perspective is one great way to gain more control over your destiny. The observer perspective can be learned, relatively easily. The choice is up to you.
