What seems impossible to us, may not necessarily be true. Something that seems impossible may feel that way simply because to achieve it, makes us uncomfortable. Moving out of our comfort zone may be the real issue we are dealing with, not the desire itself.
Our feeling that something is impossible is often a deeply ingrained belief that we created and reinforced over time making it difficult to think another way. What if what you thought was impossible is not true? What if you made that up at some point and stuck with it?
We can change our thinking about things even though it may not be easy. To begin, decide that everything you believe is not true. That everything you believe is just a thought you created. That is, in fact, what happened.
To create something that we believe to be impossible requires our willingness to change. Are you ready to allow change and to change your thinking? Whatever you are experiencing in your world is there because you believed it. Anything you desire that is not in your world is because you believe it is impossible. Energy builds around our thoughts and beliefs, creating layer after layer of energy reinforcing that idea.
I see this every day working with people who firmly believe that something is impossible and I see that it is not. I experience this for myself when I worry about something that others do not. We can reflect for each other the limits that we hold. I listen to what someone says and wonder, am I seeing a limit they have created or are they showing me a limit that I have? Usually, it is both ways. On our own, we just sit in our thoughts, believing our own stuff!
Take a moment and image coming out of the thoughts and concepts you created about what is possible in your world. When I say, “Nothing is impossible” what do you see, think, or feel?
Make a list of everything you believe is impossible. Make a long list and get these thoughts out of you.
As you make this list, notice if you put energy into these beliefs, reinforce them in your mind or are beginning to separate from them. Don’t dwell on any one idea, just make a list. Are you in the place that everything feels impossible or are you feeling as though you can change some of the ideas on this list? Can you bring your energy out of each thought as you write it? Begin to change your view to see things as possible.
Review your list. Some of what you wrote, does not matter to you. Other things that you listed, you wish you could have, be or do. Those are the desires that matter. Find someone to listen to you as your read your list. Tell them you want to change your thinking about each item, that you want to see them as possible. Your partner does not have to do anything, just listen. As you do this, you will begin to change your perspective. Do this often until you create enough space to take actions to allow the impossible to manifest. Change your thinking and change what is possible.
Stop creating goals. That may surprise you, but I mean it. Working with those focused on success, I have learned a great deal about what creates success and what does not. One thing that is very clear to me is goals can distract us from success.
When people are in discomfort or pain, it is my inclination to want to bring them out of it. I want to raise their energy high enough to feel better, so I feel better. Not a good way to be. It gets in the way of success and achieving our vision.
The importance of having a vision is promoted everywhere these days. Having a vision sounds like a discovery, or maybe we are hearing it for the first time. Perhaps the ability to see in our mind’s eye – to visualize -is gathering acceptance. In any case, the idea of vision is not new and is it not something someone discovered.
Creating the life that we desire takes courage. Working with people every day shows me a great deal about how we create. Everyone has a vision of the life they desire and goals to get there. Most take small steps and never fully achieve their dream. Why is that?
We spend our time dwelling on the energy in our space, the thoughts in our head, problems, people and more. How might things be different if we directed our attention? How might things be different if we consciously decided what to dwell on? What would happen if we did not dwell on energies in our space but on the life we are creating?
For the past twenty plus years, I have been working with business owners and professionals to achieve their vision of success and learned a great deal in the process.
Every decade or so we go through a period of doubt, questioning or feeling unsettled. Cycles like this occur naturally. We all go through them. These cycle transitions can be smooth and uneventful, and others require more thought and decision-making. Some can be challenging. How we approach these periods is up to us?
Success depends on us. Not so much what we do but how we are being. If you want to know how things will turn out today, tomorrow or next year, stop and notice how you are being. Notice how you are feeling about it. Notice what you think, fear or believe. Seeing yourself, you are watching how you create or don’t create. We can change how we are being and thus change the result.
Some of what I write in my blog is logical and strategic. I love that way of thinking. Most of what I write is from an intuitive perspective with the goal to open our awareness to so much more than what our mind can understand.
