LIFE IS NOT A STRUGGLE!
To understand others is to have
knowledge;
To understand oneself is to be
illuminated.
To conquer others needs strength;
To conquer oneself is harder still.
To be content with what one has is
to be rich…Making an Effort is Not the Same as Struggling
Why does life have to be a struggle, and why do we have to be content with what we have? That really doesn’t make any sense if you think about it. Usually when there is a struggle, it means something is wrong! Why should there be pride in always having something wrong? We have all had problems in the past, that we have attracted into our lives, whether we knew it or not. Who has not had their parents do something to “mess them up” when they were a kid? Can we blame everything on our mothers?
Of course that is a bit toungue-in-cheek, but the point is, you cannot live in the past, and blame tomorrow on yesterday. Life takes effort, but it does not have to be a struggle. The difference is, effort is something we do every day, all the time, and it comes naturally to us. Struggle is not.
Ask Yourself…
When things are not working out the way you would like, when you are struggling with something, instead of continuing to fight, make the effort to look inside and ask yourself, “Why is this happening?”
The answer to that question will often be that it is happening because you attracted it to happen. Your vibration, your thoughts, are causing the result. So how do you change it? You ask yourself questions. “Do I really want what I think I want?” “Am I in the right place here?” “Am I using negative words in my thoughts?” Often times when you ask questions such as these, the answers are clear, and therefore so is the solution!
What Are You Really Focusing On?
You attract into your life and business whatever you give my attention, energy, and focus to, whether negative or positive. The universe really is perfect. Everything that is, is for a reason. Knowing that you truly are in control of your life is such a calming feeling. It is an empowering feeling as well! We don’t have to “live in the wake of the boat” of our past. You really CAN control your destiny, and nothing is out of reach. Be content knowing that all you have to do is make the effort not to struggle!
