| What Are You Creating Today?
|
Whether you realize it or not, you're always creating something. It happens unconsciously if you're not doing it consciously. Even fear is creative....here's how that works.
- You're afraid of something, so your mind is going to focus on that to protect you from it.
- This produces stress, and you will naturally seek relief from your stress.
- Without realizing it, you will actually feel relief when the feared thing (a diagnosis, for example) occurs.
So you can see how you unconsciously seek negative outcomes to find relief from being afraid of them.
To prevent this pattern of creating what you don't want, use your brilliant mind to focus on, expect and get excited about the positive future outcomes that you do want. This article on optimism will give you the step-by-step process for getting this done. In a nutshell, you think of what you want, don't worry about how or when it's going to happen, and look forward to how you're going to feel when it comes to pass.
Optimism can be learned, and even after you've learned it, continued practice is necessary to keep it going. Be a champion Goodfinder in your life!
