Life Sucks? Stick Your Head in the Sand

Go ahead, stick your head in the sand...it's ok.


The reality you wish to escape from can be transformed, but only if you’re willing to suspend your current beliefs about it. If witnessing and living in your current reality causes you to feel anger, doubt, fear, hopelessness, chaos, etc., you will continue to feel, think, believe, act, and create from this space. 


If you are willing to see joy, peace, abundance, inspiration, etc., you will begin to feel, think, believe, act, and create from this place.


The X factor is YOU, not your reality. 


You might say, “Well, easier said than done. How do you expect me to see the good when there is so much bad?”


I might say, “When you want something bad enough, you will stop waiting for it to arrive and you will create it for yourself.”


Quantum theory states that things are only real when you observe them. 


When we look at an electron under a microscope, we see that it becomes a particle…it takes shape. But, when we walk away from observing the electron, it disappears.


When it’s being watched it turns into a particle, when we turn away it goes back into a wave. 


What does this mean?


Things only exist when we observe them. Without observation it ceases to exist. This doesn't mean it's not there, we just can't see it.


This doesn't mean that we are complacent or that other realities do not exist, because they do. This isn’t to say that we stop caring about others, or the world. 


It means that if we are feeling stuck, helpless, and hopeless in the reality we are currently in, then that is what we will continue to create, and how can we effectively impact others? How can we genuinely serve others? How can we feel empowered to become the light in the world we were created to be?


If we want a different life for ourselves, then we have to be willing to walk away from our current reality. We have to create space for a new one. This means that we must put ourselves in that mindset and in places and with people, that cultivate the kind of environment we want to live in.


Before May 6, 1954, nobody could run a mile in under 4 mins.


British athlete Roger Bannister became the first person to run a mile in under four minutes, marking a historic moment in athletics where this feat was considered impossible by most; essentially, "nobody" could run a 4-minute mile until Bannister achieved it.


Now everyone can run a 4-minute mile...well, not me, but you know what I mean.


John Bryant (British journalist and runner) "reminds us that runners had been chasing the goal seriously since at least 1886, and that the challenge involved the most brilliant coaches and gifted athletes in North America, Europe, and Australia. “For years milers had been striving against the clock, but the elusive four minutes had always beaten them,” he notes. “It had become as much a psychological barrier as a physical one. And like an unconquerable mountain, the closer it was approached, the more daunting it seemed.” (Harvard Business Review)


As of June 2022, according to available data, approximately 1,755 athletes have ever broken the four-minute mile barrier, meaning that many people around the world can run a mile in under four minutes.


Once we observed that this was a possibility, it became more attainable. It became a reality.


When you are able to breakthrough your barriers nothing can stop you from creating the life you want. When you are able to create space for imagination, creativity, and possibility, that is when a new reality is born. And as you create this new reality for yourself, you will break barriers for others to do the same.


Sending my Love and Light.
