Suppose this
article were titled, "Designing your
Future", you may possibly have been tempted to put off doing tomorrow
what you can successfully do today. The truth of the matter is that every day,
you are shaping and framing your life -- with each word you speak, with each
action you take, with each way you react. Now think about that for a moment -
you are essentially the designer of your
everyday lifestyle. And if you are the designer of the way you live today,
then you are also the designer of the way you will live in your future.
Your life is a delicate balancing
act between both science and art. According to Newton's Law of
Motion, to every action there is
always an equal and opposite reaction. So yes, what you do in the present
time will fundamentally affect your future self. That is why it is so very
important to not only live in the
present moment, but equally important to be cognizant of the messages the
Universe is offering you so you can be
prepared for life's challenges and opportunities. It is a two-way street.
What you channel in the here and now, predetermines your tomorrow and
thereafter.
Think of yourself as a
blank sheet of paper. If you were a future self, what would you want written on
that paper to accurately describe you? Since I am the designer of my life, I know the sheet is going to be
filled with accomplishments and a depiction of a healthier and happier me. So if it were your sheet, what would you
write about a future you? You must
understand in order to achieve your
personal and professional goals, you must take action to create an equal reaction for long-term success. The
ball stops and starts with you -- and you do not have a moment to waste. Center yourself so you can truly concentrate on the life your heart desires.
If you can visualize it, you can create it; and if you can create it, you can live it. Whether that realization is becoming a high
school teacher, an author, a legal scholar, a public speaker, an artist, or a
prime-time television chef, then you must design
your way. Not enough education?
Go back to school. Not enough experience?
Contact professionals to volunteer time to acquire hands-on apprenticeship. Want to author your own novel? Start
writing it and complete it. Don't just sit there, start taking action.
Ultimately, you are designing your lifestyle each and every
minute. Your planning, investments
and follow-throughs that you are taking right now are immediately impacting
your bridge to a brighter and blessed tomorrow. Within you, is the absolute
power to create the life you truly
desire. No other individual, event
or situation can stop you from designing
your life unless you allow it. Remember
Newton's Law? That's right. It is the action you put forth to create an
equal or opposite reaction. Put Newton to the test by focusing and applying your
abilities and talents to achieve and
succeed in the here and now, and for your future.
