Yep
There's been a huge lie that has been running your entire life. Problem is, you might not even know it.
It's not your fault.
This lie is incredibly powerful and no one has been left out of its grasp.
I'm here to tell you what that lie is and how knowing about it can literally change your life.
I know because it changed mine.
Here it is - there's this place that you will reach where everything "turns out."
Let me explain further.
Imagine you are in a rowboat heading towards this "island where it all turns out." This island is the land of where all your dreams, hopes, aspirations, and goals come true...and when you get there...you will be happy. But there's one major problem with all of this...
Unfortunately, this place doesn't exist.
It's a very sexy lie and a complete mirage.
Despite the fact it is a mirage, it's incredibly enticing and will keep you rowing your boat towards it as long as you live because you think that this is where your happiness exists.
But it gets worse. It's not just about rowing your boat to an imaginary place that's bad, it's about what this mentality brings out in you. Living this way makes you strive on a timeline to achieve something and makes you incredibly narrow minded. Everything is about progress. Everything must go "according to plan."
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.
AND 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.
You know that mid-life crisis ordeal? Bingo.
What is the shift that needs to take place in order for you to exit out of this way of thinking?
Be amoebic. Huh? Yes...just like an amoeba. Let me explain.
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 here's where it get's really good.
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.
So exit the future and start living in the present moment. Take your endlessly rowing oars out of the water and start enjoying what's actually going on around you. Truth is, you can only exist in the present moment anyways.
If you can really slow down and connect you will see incredibly changes in your life.
Living in this world, everything is possible.
Ask yourself right now, "What's actually here? What's really going on?"
Stop rowing.
