How would you live your life if you didn’t have to worry about money? Will you be making the exact same decisions you are making right now?
There are two ways to change our “destiny” (the course of our life).
The first way is working hard for the things we want. Once we achieve the desired outcomes, they are bound to transform our life.
The other way is to take a look at our identity from a different point of view. This can guide us towards making different, healthier, bolder choices for our growth more consistently and show us the “shortcut” opportunities to our elevation.
None of us knows exactly how much time we’ve got on planet Earth. When we focus too much on saving our earnings (opposed to saving our energy*) for the future, we forget to experience the present moment.
All that matters is in the present moment. Once we embrace uncertainty, it doesn’t throw us off our game anymore. It reminds us we’re the players in charge of running the show.
*If you think of energy as your attention, consider where you’ve been directing your attention and therefore on what you’ve been spending your energy. Wasted energy sets us back just like an empty bank account and often leads us to emptying our bank account much faster and on less meaningful items or pursuits.
