“Do you know what is really standing in your way?”

“What stands between what you desire and where you are today is usually how we each manage the discomfort of the time and effort it takes to achieve what we want.” - Tadayoshi Inoue

What do you think is standing between you and what you really want from your life, your body or your future? I know you know the answer, it is you! What we believe about ourselves and how we approach each experience are the only true obstacles in our way. 

We only control two things in this life. We control what we think about and what we do. That is it folks. We may influence our outcomes but we in no way control them. So setting your expectations in this life to only give yourself permission to celebrate, feel love or feel joyful on the outcomes of your life is, in my guess a losing proposition. 

But if you adjust your expectations to focus more on what you do or what you think about you can always cultivate the kind of life you desire. You may not get to choose your outcomes or what happens to you but you can choose to see what you wish in all your experiences. 

Most think they can only become joyful if something joyful happens to them. Or feel love if someone reflects love at them or feel excited because something exciting is happening to them. But the reality is we determine how we are going to feel by the messages that we affirm to ourselves about ourself. 

It is important to control your thoughts, control how you act so that you can architect a life experience that provides the easiest excuses for you to find your own joy, or love or exciting life. This does not require anything in life to work with you. However, if you believe that it will…. then life will seem to work in concert to help you! This is my experience. 

I am love. I am joy. I am so very good and so are you!
