fully engaged
Hey friend,
What you eventually create with your life is a result of your relationship to life, which is essentially a collection of habits that you have with yourself, relationships and how you go about creating change.
The habits of most people come from an absence (not presence) and are taken from what others around them are doing- without reverence for themselves.
Most people only make change out of pain, challenge, crisis, because of problems. Very few make meaningful change out of a desire to move into greatness (integration).
Most people only give their full attention and are fully engaged with life when a pressing problem arises.
Most people only move forward through suffering.
Consider that the only thing that stops you from receiving great opportunity, is the space to receive it.
Consider that nothing is ever missing, its always right here, you just can’t see it.
To be present, is to be fully engaged with life. And that’s a rare thing.
