I like to act simply in front of life, in front of my life. One of my daily tasks is to free awareness of my eternal hopes or promises and what they can generate in my life. I realized I was expending a lot of energy when I saw myself in the future situation I wanted. I’ve been too focused to do it.
So I made the decision to stop living and not expect anything from me. As soon as you make this decision, your heart breathes again and your soul begins to live for real. it’s the only reason we condition ourselves, and in fact we don’t live, we imprison our souls and we robotize it.
- So one day I decided to stop thinking about myself.
- What I expected from me.
- All my hopes and illusions.
- I decided to stop creating expectations and live them constantly.
- To focus on what happened at every moment and be able to enjoy them.
- Instead of waiting.
“The past has already fled, what is expected is absent, but the present is yours. ” -Arabic proverb-
So I decided not to expect anything from others, that the people around you appreciate you, that your spouse understands you, that they understand each other, and that others trust you, your potential, and your know-how. always an easy task. I learned that the most important thing is that I believe in myself, and that if I do something, it’s not expecting anything in return, but because I’m really looking forward to it.
I used to focus on large sums of money because of the great job opportunities I expected, I realized that the more I wanted the material, the less life I gave myself and the less progressed towards this state, so I accepted what I wanted. I had and realized that I didn’t need any more to feel good about myself or be happy.
I realized that I didn’t appreciate or enjoy what I had at the time, because all I focused on was the future, when I had more and earned more. Meanwhile, he was wasting the most important time, the present moment.
Why wait until everything is perfect? In fact, thinking so, I realized that I did not feel my true inner peace, which we have all kept in our souls and hearts from birth, our essence and present as human beings what we are, unique and extraordinary.
When you stop expecting everything to be perfect, you stop relying on your environment to bring out your true power, serenity and inner balance. What can someone change or something? Perfection doesn’t exist, I’ve had enough to try to find it.
I started thinking about the idea of telling myself to “whatever happens, it will happen, and all for an exceptional reason. “
We all have plans. I myself have incredible goals, but when you enjoy your life under this motto, you begin to realize the great opportunities it really has to offer you and its plans reveal little compared to these opportunities.
There’s something I’m taking now that expectations hold back energy and focus on just a few paths and options. In addition, these possibilities are usually already present in your mind. How? Instead of thinking? For what?.
I’ve always been waiting for something. My mind created a chain of events that I wanted to happen in my life, so my head was always working under pressure to continue meeting my expectations and not forgetting anything My body still worked completely, wondering what had to happen and what I could do to achieve what I wanted.
And all because I didn’t know exactly how to achieve what I expected from myself. But you know what’s the most curious thing? When I stopped thinking about this mechanical chain, a succession of exceptional answers and ideas began to appear that allowed me to achieve things more easily.
I got physically and emotionally excessively tired when I proposed something, it was like preparing for a marathon that disappointed me and took a little out of my life and is paradoxical: what I wanted most, in the process of getting it, it took me to take away something from my life energy. It doesn’t make sense, you think?
After understanding all the above points in my mind and accepting that this was what my soul needed and my heart wanted, my life began to be filled with new gifts that came from themselves, I began to think that before I did not appreciate what life it gave me, because I was constantly looking for the answer to the question “how to get it?”
And now, at last, I tell you the secret that I decided to stop controlling my life and work so hard to investigate how things were going to go, everything happens at the pace at which it happens, because it has its own time, unalterable and when we understand this, we can appreciate how to feel life and how to sink without expecting anything, just to live and truly be yourself.
“Trust the time, which usually gives kind answers to many bitter difficulties. -Miguel de Cervantes-
