We all want the best lives for ourselves don't we? We go to the same job every day, doing the same thing over and over. What do we accomplish by doing that? Do you have goals, aspirations or desires? What are you doing to achieve those things? What progress have you made toward those goals?
(Each video is set at the speed of the point being made)
Is Being Ambivalent Better Than Being Focused?
Vince does have a point.....there are no expectations, no worries, no goals, no priorities living this way. You have nothing to worry about, because you have nothing to live for! Living this way is pretty carefree, but in the video you can see he has papers stacked up like mountains, an old accountant desk behind him that looks like it's been there for 80 years.
Not having a goal may not ever make you disappointed, but will you be happy? Will you be satisfied? Why get out of the bed in the morning if you don't have something to work towards, something to look forward to? We can go through life just dealing with circumstances as they come, or we can create the circumstances that align with the life we want to live.
But....Go With The Flow.....
A river never flows the same way twice, and the exact moment you read this can never be duplicated. You have a choice, right now, of what you want to do. You have an infinite number of options to choose from. Each action will create a different path, whether it's for you or someone else in the world (The butterfly effect).
The only thing that matters at this moment in time.....is this moment. Are you happy? Are you where you want to be? Are you doing something that moves you closer to your goal?
Think of time this way: Time is a two sided coin......One side is the past, the other side is the future. The side of the coin is NOW, this present moment. What are you doing right NOW to enjoy the life you have?
What Path Do We Take?
It's turned into a 'freewrite' at this point. Focus on a goal, or just be a fart in the wind? "When you know nothing matters, the universe is yours"
Whatever you decide to do, just be YOU. Don't let anyone else dictate or control the person you are. There are an infinite number of realities, with an infinite number of possibilities. Make a decision......right NOW.....about what it is you want. Continue on the same path, and continue to experience the same results?
You aren't happy with where you're at? Make a change.....make a DECISION for Christ!
There is limitless opportunity in this world, we live in a golden age. Every piece of information is at our finger tips, and we can be anything we want.
Decide
What do you want, and what is preventing you from having it? I know where my faults lie, and they aren't pretty. I have the ability to correct poor behavior and decision making, yet I continue on the same path. Clearly I haven't made a DECISION to change. My 'goals' aren't important enough for me to make a change, so I continue doing the same thing.
If this resonates with you, or if you've found ANY meaning in my words......let me know.....please? I'm not asking for tips, I'm asking for comments. Tell me what you would like me to write about, tell me what's important to you!!!
