I have this image of myself at the goal I desire to reach. In that image of myself I am prosperous, in better physical shape, promoting my writing works, and being a person who has the financial security to travel and help others with Conscious Reality Creation.
This is whom I desire to be. Since consciousness creates reality, if I envision this person in the future, then that is always whom I will be striving to be. IF, however, I instead envision myself as this person NOW, the reality of this idea gets closer to home.
As I have been editing my next non-fiction work, tentatively titled You Are Amazing – How to Choose a Kickass Life, I have been going over several years of material I wrote for The Ramblings of the Titanium Don. Over and over again, there are several frequently repeating themes.
Consciousness creates reality. Live in the Now. Be Present. Thought, feeling, and intentional action manifests life. Reality is an illusion.
All of this ties together, because it is the building blocks for one to create a life they most desire to live. Which is what I have been working to do.
The image of myself that I hold is not so far removed as to be impractical. I don’t need to further my education, take off a surreal amount of weight, or do anything else all that drastic. The image of myself that I hold is more-or-less me now…just more ideal.
This version of me is more confident, more certain. I carry myself with less of a slouch and greater surety. Yeah, I’m less portly and in better shape. But the rest of it is easy to reach.
So why am I not there? Simple – the goal is ahead, instead of in the now.
The image of myself can be my reality.
Seeing myself at the goal is a huge part of conscious reality creation. Thinking about it, feeling what it may feel like, and working out intentional actions to take will get me there. These things are how I reach my goal.
See how I wrote that? Will get me there. Reach my goal. Where does that put it? Ahead of me. This is my future.
If I speak of this image of myself in the future, hold it in the future in my mind’s eye, guess where it will live? Exclusively in the future.
This is one of those things I need to be better about. Rather than see the goals I desire to attain ahead of me, I need to envision them as ALREADY achieved. Instead of saying “will get me there” it needs to be changed to “make it so.” “How I reach my goal” needs to be changed to “achieved my goal.” This cannot just be the words, I have to also think it and feel it IN THE NOW.
This is not just a small change in attitude for me. This requires a complete fundamental shift of my thought process. I have to really guard what I am thinking and feeling, and what I am saying. It’s going to require me to push past some comfort zones along the way, but I think it’s extremely worthwhile.
Why do this? Because my best image of myself is something I desire to create. I want to be even more content and happy with the person that I am. My self-talk, the description of myself inside my mind’s eye, has to be fundamentally changed to the idealized image of myself I imagine.
Not tomorrow. This is not down-the-line. It is NOW.
This image of myself is me.
Words matter. What we say is a reflection of our thought process, and our feelings. If I say I am fat, shabby, out-of-shape, old and broken, what message do you think that’s sending out to the universe? What am I asking to receive if that is how I talk and think and feel about myself?
It is for this reason that I need to change this. I don’t desire to lie, because my inner skeptic will derail this process. So the goal is to start with subtle language change. It is important that I instead see myself and speak of myself as solid, together, in-shape, young and flexible. This is not telling a lie, it is a shift in perspective.
I know that may be splitting hairs, but I know myself better than anyone else does. As such, I know what can and what won’t work. The real challenge is vigilance about my mindfulness. The awareness of myself needs to be present, in the now, and unwavering.
This is how consciousness creates reality. To manifest my goal, I have to see it as complete. Right here, right now. Done. It’s not that I can have this…it is that I DO have this.
I continue striving to make this work. Thank you for joining me. Please take a moment to explore the rest of the website, which I am working to evolve and change for the better…much like I am doing for myself. Also, visit Awareness for Everyone to check out my bi-weekly podcasts.
