What does the power of now have to do with anything? Well, for starters, if you were to continue down a path with nothing but remorse and regret, living in the past, stuck on what happened, didn’t happen, you will relinquish the power of now. The life you desire will not take place because you are too busy holding yourself back by holding on to what no longer exists. The only place the past exists is in one’s memory.
MEMORY TRAP
It may take some time before you can muddle your way through the concept of release. Work on the things that need fixing, and just let go of those things that keep you trapped. Release the mind chatter that wants to become a permanent tenant in your headspace, keeping you up at night. Whenever we get caught up in an issue, drama, negativity, or the past, we will never see a way out. If too focused on the wrong things, it will be difficult to tap into the right ones.
MIND TRAP
To focus on the mistakes you made, the things you said, what you did or didn’t do, is a trap. A mind trap. Just live each moment as it comes. Be your best in every situation going forward. Deal with one thing at a time. Do whatever it is you love, do what’s best, and refocus and redirect your attention. What happens? The unpleasant thoughts move out and the pleasant thoughts move in. Better things take place when we are optimistic. Why get stuck in a negative mindset?
THE POWER OF NOW
Deny yourself, your truth, your feelings, and this will only prevent you from experiencing peace, forfeiting a happier life. Long story short, you impede your success. Success in love, at work, in life, happens when you free yourself from self-sabotage. Just get out of your way. What you love to do, who you love to spend time with, how you live your life will depend on you, and how you exercise the power of now. What you do in these pivotal moments will be the key to success. You can create a better story. A better life will not take place unless you stop rehashing the could have, should have, but didn’t, only to set it on perpetual replay, habitually recycling negative patterns. You get my drift.
IMAGINE
As one cycle ends, another is sure to begin. You can alter the direction by changing your thought process and the way you do the things you do, which can impact your outlook on life. A renewed outlook leads to progress. Steady and gradual will win the race if you continue to persevere. In the back of your mind you know what was, was and what is, is. Regardless of what was or is, imagine what can be. Imagine the possibility.
LIVE TO LOVE | LOVE TO LIVE IN THE POWER OF NOW
Love, learn, and live beyond the trap. We know what works for us and what doesn’t. Stop listening to what’s going on around you, resisting those soulful whispers of your heart, and you will end up in the wrong place, with the wrong person, living the wrong life. Years later, you will ask, “Self, how did I get here, stuck in this place of struggle, heartache, and frustration?” And Father Time will remind you of all those decisions made long ago. What you chose and what you didn’t.
There are many things in life that will catch your eye but only a few will catch your heart; pursue those.
