Are You Creating or Reacting?

Are You Taking Action or Just Watching?

"Living by default" or "living on luck" could be described as just reacting to anything that happens in your environment. It is exhausting and dissatisfying to live a life of response. Random events are all that are available to those who live this way. They are largely motivated by suffering and avoid generating new possibilities for growth via their own efforts.

In contrast, establishing your own life is more aggressive, rewarding, and empowering! Rather than responding to your life, consider these ideas:

1. When your life's quality varies between poor and tolerable, you are reacting. When you have reacted, you will have shown this characteristic. When your level of comfort drops, you will spring into action. You will do everything you can to get it back to a manageable level. After then, you can take a break and only take action if things get really bad again.

2. It is a choice to fail if you do not have a plan for your life. Without a specific destination in mind, there is no goal. You will get whatever comes your way if you do not plan for it. People who are fortunate in their lives did not arrive there by chance. You must have the fortitude to make a decision and then follow through on that decision.

3. Visualization is a powerful tool. One of the most important benefits of visualizing is that it has the capacity to affect people on a variety of The act of visualizing what you want in your life drives you to make a decision.

First, decide what you want to achieve. Your goal will always be at the forefront of your mind if you use visualization. It reminds you of what is important to you. Reminders like this one will help you identify relevant opportunities when they arise. Your goal will seem more plausible if you use visualization to help you get there. Over and over, you change your mindset to believe that success is attainable by imagining it over and over. Five minutes a day is all you need to visualize your goal. There is always time for a five-minute task.

4. Be aware of the distinction between the two. You are on your way to the desired outcome when you take action. When you are reacting, you are responding to what is going on around you in the present moment. It is the goal of reaction to put the issue back to normal. In order to create a new world, action is taken.

5. Is there anything more rewarding than establishing a life that delights and inspires you? Life is a series of problems that must be solved one at a time. Who chose to spend the rest of their lives merely dealing with problems or waiting for more to arise? Stress and uncertainty are inevitable if you choose to live this way. Instead, design the life you desire!

6. It is not going to happen by itself. Too much emphasis has been placed on the idea of letting the universe to bring you what you want as you sit on the couch and wait for it. However, it is rare that you will come across someone who has a fresh new Porsche in their driveway one morning. In order to achieve the things that matter most to you, you must first know what you desire. You will be able to spot possibilities for success and seize them when you see them.

7. Instead of responding to problems, find solutions to them. Avoiding future occurrences is preferable to simply responding to the current problem. Every day, you face the same kinds of obstacles you have faced before. Come up with solutions and a strategy for preventing the problem from happening again. Repeating the same mistake over and over again is a waste of time and energy.

Make a decision today about the kind of life you want to lead. Visualize your decision on a frequent basis to remind yourself of it. Leverage the power of the chances that you see. Achieve the life you want and deserve by rejecting a life of mediocrity!
