You mustn’t run away from your present, however, you must run towards your future.

The unpleasant present

Have you ever found yourself in a miserable situation with no apparent way out? Perhaps, at this very moment you are in a low paying job, a bad relationship, or a mountain of debt. While it seems like the entire universe has plotted against you and has placed roadblock after roadblock in front of you and your path to success, you must not run away from your present situation. Instead, you must run towards your future when things are the lowest in your life. 

Negative situations often result in negative responses…WRONG

Most people face negative situations in life with negative responses. They blame others for their unhappy and unsuccessful life. They blame their spouse, their boss, their age, their height, their weight, and their parents for their lack of success in their life. And while they blame others for their unsuccessful life, in the same breath, they also look to others and other things to solve their problems.

What’s your plan if you run away? Just running doesn’t solve the problem

As a result, they need to be with a person to feel whole, they need a shiny sports car to feel worthy, and they need a new house on the right side of town to feel successful. And when they construct barriers around their dreams, they want to run away from it all with no plan or vision of how to achieve the future they want.

Your life is a mirror

Little do these blamers understand that their present is a reflection of what they have been thinking about and what they must receive from the benevolent Source. These same people do not realize that their attitude can change an unpleasant present into a fabulous future. 

Don’t be a blamer…claim responsibility for your unpleasant present

Now, consider your own situation. If it’s not what you want it to be, do not blame everyone else for your results and do not look at everyone else for your solutions. Take full responsibility of the present knowing that your attitude can change your results.

Be sincerely grateful where you are at this moment

First, you must take the initiative and be grateful for whatever situation you find yourself in. And next, while being in a positive state of gratitude, you must also create an inner world of peace and calmness. This positive state occurs when you have a concise vision of what you long to achieve.

Clarity of purpose cerates empowerment

Finally, with a clear vision of what you want, you feel empowered and enthused about the future, hence, you can run towards your future knowing that your goals are attainable. 

Change? Change your attitude along with your thoughts, words and actions

In the end, it’s all about your attitude and your reaction to the situation you find yourself in. If you run away from the present, you are reacting out of hate, fear, and doubt. These are negative feelings which only serve to block your path to success.

Run to your future with a heart, mind, and soul full of love, faith and belief

In contrast, if you run towards your future, you are reacting out of love, faith, and belief. These are positive feelings which can only build a bridge to your success. When you find yourself in a situation, carefully think about your reaction to get where you want to go.

“Love the process not the product.”

Attaining success is as precise as any mathematical formula 

Achieving one’s desires is made possible by the fact that Natural Laws exist in the universe and they are as precise as any mathematical formula. As well, each and every one is under the influence of these Laws; there are no exclusions due to gender, location, age, or sex. And as a result of these immutable Laws, there are several time-proven techniques that help us to achieve what we set our hearts and souls upon.

Visualization helps us achieve success 

Many use visualization of either their goal’s features or benefits to arrive at what they set their sights upon. As we focus upon features, it is easier to reach goals when we add our five senses to our sessions. Touch, taste, sound, sight, and smell are the jet fuel that accelerates the process and supports us in our journey of physical and spiritual achievements. However, some find that they are unfamiliar or uncomfortable with fully opening-up and using their complete sensory facilities as a focus of their visualization sessions. If you have tried this technique and have come to the conclusion that it is not for you there is another means available to you; focus your attention upon the benefits of achieving your goal for your Self and for your family.

Focus upon enjoying the benefits, not the features of your goal 

There is a shift in your focus as you dwell upon the benefits and not the features of the goal. Hence, rather than focusing upon that genuine calf leather seats and unique paint job of your new sports car, you focus upon the pride of ownership or your reduced carbon footprint by owning such a unique automobile. Also, a better job provides more money available to send your child to a prestigious college; more retirement income provides more freedom to travel and see the world; and more education provides a more fulfilling life.

Still haven’t attracted success? 

While these two techniques stand under the scrutiny of time and practice, they also provide a workable framework to achieve our goals, still, there are some who have tried these and have not been successful at reaching their goals. They witness others around them achieving their goals and then they feel frustrated, resentment, pity, envy, and other feelings which eventually lead them to giving-up all together and staying in their unpleasant present for perhaps their entire lifetime.

Awareness helps to achieve what you want in life

They have abandoned their goals and have embraced a negative vibratory state, this is a very unfulfilling way to live life since the Source openly provides the means to achieve what we desire, it is our awareness that helps us to achieve what we want and to identify alternate roads to the journey’s end.

Focus upon the process and not the product

There is yet another alternative to achieving your goals and that is to focus upon the process and not the features or benefits of the product. What I mean is that rather than focus upon a new job, or more income, or more goods – which focus upon the product or your end goal, focus upon the process of making those daily steps to your goal and not the end goal itself. For example, you are aware that your company is closing and you will need to find a new job. However, you never earned that college degree or your skills need to be updated since you’ve worked at the same job and at the same company for years.

Be proactive in life  

Rather than waiting for the inevitable and feeling fear and anxiety as most would in this position, be proactive and immediately find a school or program that will get you to the next level to be employable. When you have found that ideal course or degree, then focus upon the here and now and enjoy each moment. Enjoy the positive energy in the classroom with your classmates; enjoy the test of learning new skills; enjoy the grade that you earn from your mid-term test.

Live each moment of the journey and not just for the finish line

With this technique, you set the goal and do not revisit it every day or every hour. You enjoy each moment as it is and there is no pressure upon hitting that end goal since it is not your immediate focus.

What you want and what you achieve can manifest a negative state 

It appears to me that the problems start when you set the goal and then things aren’t progressing as you want and you notice there is a big gap between what you want and where you are. Then the negative feelings set in and this can only result in being in a negative vibratory state which can never bring you closer to your end goal no matter how hard you try to visualize the end product or the many benefits that accompany your greatest want.

Focus upon features or benefits?

Focusing upon features works for some, focusing upon benefits works for others, however, there are some who cannot achieve their goals with either of these proven techniques. For whatever reason, they are unable to effectively use these techniques and rather than give-up and face an unfulfilled life, there is a viable alternative to help you achieve your goals.

Focus upon each moment of the process and not the joy of the product

Focus upon the process and not the product; focus upon each joyous moment as you progress to your goal. Focus upon the little victories as you take the next step in your journey. And as your focus remains upon the process and not the end product, in time you will overcome and succeed where you once believed that there was no hope to attain the lofty heights you had imagined.
