Have the plan! 1 month ago

It’s what I’ve learnt over this year. If I want anything to happen, I need to know how I want it to happen, when I want it to happen and what exactly this should be. I need a goal and a plan. Otherwise, it’s likely to be a *$@#$%^ mess and nothing is likely to come true.

I used to think that doing things this way would be no fun (you know everything before it even happens?! boredom…). I have learnt it’s much more fun than doing it without any plan. Without a plan… an action is likely to never be taken!



seeking approval outside 2 months ago

I have recently realized I tended to be looking for external approval for myself which was a highly destructive approach. My conscious thoughts were like: Well, I don’t care what others think, I decide on the way I choose and still there were people whom I wanted to give their okay before I could accept myself. My dreams were conditional as a result.
It hurt to realize that. But only for a little while. Liberation being the outcome does not hurt any longer.



I still tend to 2 months ago

waste my energy on searching what I am not good enough at in order to succeed. I ask what can I improve in myself rather than where can I use my talents today?. I’d rather get focused on possible contributions to the world more than trying to become perfect (having given it a bit of thought: what an egocentric approach it is!!), as I never will.

No more waste of energy. Use what I have already. I will never know enough, be skilled enough, be conscious enough to start, ‘cause I already have what it takes! We all have. Just go.



Realized. 2 months ago

Inspired by Thesky and this her post I re-realized that way too often I sabotage myself by not doing things I love doing. I consciously cut off the best pieces of my life and thus no wonder my days get crappy so often.
So why don’t I do what I love doing? What’s the limiting belief? Do I really have to enjoy being masochistic? NO! But well, I have said it million times.
Now what I am going to do is try and DO ONE THING A DAY that makes me happy. Be honest with myself. It must be a conscious choice but I have to remember not to make it another TO-DO (as I am likely to immediately get to hate it).



Lessons to learn - cont'd 3 months ago

I (think I) now better recognize the lessons that I’ve got to learn. Here are the next couple of exams in life I have to pass before I am allowed to step higher.

The first thing is
Trust my gut
Sometimes when it speaks particularly loudly, I do not listen carefully enough. I believe I should. I have seen now that if I had listened to it, .... But I didn’t and have to live with it.

Then comes
Manage things I put my foot in
This is an extension of Count on yourself lesson. I see people have good ideas but most often that’s it. They find million excuses why they didn’t do this or that. I believe I have the power to make things happen and I am willing. Never done it before as I thought: well, I hope they know what to do with it…. They might but no action was taken. And: Well, it wasn’t MY idea so I let them take action on their idea…. Most often nobody does take any action. If I am not involved, I don’t insist but if my ass is concerned…

And
I can do it
Anytime, whatever happens, I CAN do it. With a little bit of research, with a little bit or a huge of help from others but I CAN.

Followed by
Create the life I want to live
Well, I CAN do it. Who if not ME can create MY own life??

Thank you, universe!



Lessons to learn 3 months ago

Unless I learn a lesson well, the universe keeps teaching me and I keep failing. Well, now the lesson that I have just learnt is the old obvious one: If you can count, count on yourself. Well, in terms of making sure the critical actions are taken. People often say they do much more than they actually do. Empty talk.



TUMULT 5 months ago

Another day of hearing my inner voice scream loudly NO! to what I am doing with my life. Where are dreams? Where are passions? Where are adventures? Where are travels? Where are… Where are…

Where is me?



Trust 6 months ago

The basement of all success is trust and confidence. I dare to say it now. I have experienced that I have to trust before I am allowed to experience what I trust. So, even not understanding WHY and HOW it works, I recommend to trust.

for stop daydreaming, take real action!

Better I think! There is indeed nothing wrong in daydreaming as long as you take action on your dreams!
