So this morning I seemed to be getting a message from the universe – thoughts that came into my head, e-mails I received, songs on the radio. And the message was:
Say it as you want to see it.
For example, you notice your bank account is empty -> I see my bank account full to overflowing! Your friend is making a poor relationship choices -> I see you with someone you respect and love, who respects and loves you. You have no time to do the 4,000 tasks you need to do by tomorrow -> I see myself working efficiently and doing everything that is important.
The reasoning for this (just in case you don’t know) is that from one side you are powerless, at the mercy of your circumstances. On the other side, there is possibility to change those circumstances (when I changed my mindset about the 4,000 tasks, I got clear about what I really needed to do and got down to it!) or at least to accept them and move on.
So, i was contemplating this as I was walking the dog in the lovely sunshine. Then I turned round to see said mutt rolling ecstatically in manure. Sigh. After rinsing off the worst of it, throwing her in the bath and changing her from minging mutt to fluff-ball, I realised that this was a physical example of this concept. Moaning for days about the dog stinking of manure was not an option – I just had to change it! Luckily that was easy enough to do…
Sometimes it’s not so easy to take the action, but it’s definitely worth taking your focus off what stinks in your life and onto how you want it to be. And if you want to borrow my dog shampoo, let me know.
Love
