If you want something to be different in your life, change it.
If you’ve adopted this mentality, then you know it’s hard AF sometimes to make that change you so desperately want (and maybe even desperately need).
The reason why it is such a challenge to change is because our bodies have been hardwired to live in the past. And as you may know, if you keep creating your life from the same old emotional standpoint, you are creating your life from all that you already know and not the quantum field of possibilities.
When we bring up a memory over and over about a particular person, place, thing, or event, we tend to get an emotional response that goes with it. Perhaps you remember your boss being a total D-bag to you one day and you left work feeling rejected, undervalued, and just downright mad. Now, every time you think of work or your boss, these emotions come up and you start to really hate your job.
Without any conscious effort, you have just conditioned your body to have a specific response (just like Pavlov’s dogs). Each time you remember the event, your body will start to release the same chemical reaction it had during the initial experience, causing you to literally relive the event. Do this enough times and your body memorizes the feeling so that when you get triggered, you immediately respond with resentment, anger, dejection, etc.
Eventually you become “the angry person” at work.
Now, this doesn’t feel so great does it? No, most of the time it doesn’t. But we are justified in being angry because of the way we were treated.
Let me ask you this, would you really want to spend your time on this planet being angry at ONE person in your life?
The thing is, when you hold on to this anger, it’s only hurting you. It’s like the saying: Holding on to anger is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
News flash: The other person doesn’t give a crap about how you feel. (And if they DO, they will come to you to work out a resolution from a place of genuine understanding.)
So, now you have a choice. You can live your life as “the angry person” OR you can decide to make a change.
Changing these emotions that have been conditioned requires you to think, act, and feel beyond your current scope of perception.
Imagining yourself as the person YOU’D LIKE TO BE, and really feeling into what that feels like, changes your physiology. You are literally recoding your cells to react differently. You are putting yourself into the future, not based on your past, but on the present moment.
As you do this, you are pulling that new reality out of the quantum field into your life experience. Things will start to show up for you that reflect this new state of being. All you have to do is make the commitment to keep yourself in this elevated emotional state, as if this new version of you was here right now, and eventually this new state of being will become your new normal.
This is how you get past the difficulty of making a change or reinventing yourself. Tune in and connect with who you desire to be, imagine you are that person right now, and your body will start to reorganize in a more coherent way. This will bring you to new experiences the old version of you would have never been able to have because it was stuck creating the same old, same old for you.
When you live as the future you NOW, you watch the magic of life unfold right before your eyes. Opportunities become available, people respond to you differently, and all of a sudden things feel a heck of a lot easier. Life becomes the most exciting adventure you’ve ever been on.
So, buckle up honey and enjoy the ride!
