    noiz viol8ion blog #834 – Grasping

    It is easy to get wrapped up in the past. Who I was, what I was doing, what relationships I had, my accomplishments and where I’ve been.

    The past is easy to grasp because it is known. It is real and tangible. I can study and learn from it.

    The future is more scary because I am completely vulnerable. I have to project who I want to be, who I want to be with and where I want to go. The future is unknown and not tangible. I can’t grasp it. It’s only a dream.

    In reality the only thing real is the present. The present is the only thing you can control and truly the only thing you are able to grasp and take advantage of.

    There is a balance focusing on what you don’t have. Focusing on what you don’t have can motivate you to figure out how to go out and get it. When you want something it is up to you to make it happen.

    On the other side when you focus on what you don’t have it can make you feel down. When you lack something then there are reasons you lack it. This can make you feel insufficient.

    When you focus on what you have it can make you feel grateful. To look back at how far you’ve come. Look back on the memories you’ve had, the accomplishments you’ve achieved, look at the treasures you’ve collected.

    Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.

    George Orwell

    You are the one in control. If you look at your past it will give you a glimpse into your future. If you didn’t have confidence in the past then you will not who you want to be in the future. The only thing you can control is the present. You can control what you are focusing on in the present moment. You can control the action you are taking in the present. The action you are taking in the present will become your past. This new past will create a better preset and future for you.

    Blog#174 – “Who are you?”

    You know better than anyone else who you are. You are always right when answering this question because your body and mind will make yourself right. If you say you are a procrastinator then you will procrastinate. If you say you are successful then you will succeed. If you say you are a loser you will find a way to lose.

    People will always make themselves right. Whether you have empowering or disempowering beliefs about who you are, you are always right. If you change these foundations about who you are your life will change with it.

    You are not a subject of your circumstances or your emotions but a choice you can make about who you are. You are not your past. You are not fixed as your current self and your future self has yet to be determined.

    You must decide on who you want to become.

  • Blog #143 – The Past is Easy and the Future is Hard

    It is easy to reminisce in the past because it is tangible and has happened. It is easy for the mind to look back at the past. The past is full of many memories about relationships, family, hardships, friendships, and other moments. Think back at all the moments and if you made another decisions your life would be completely different now. I think of many moments and say, “What if I…” We all have many of these “What if” moments. It is easy to know what we would do now in these moments looking back.

    It is hard for the mind to look at the future. The future hasn’t happened yet so the mind has to be extremely creative and make up a future. If you want to limit these what if moments then you have to know where you are going so you can make the right decisions in the transitional moments. This requires you to stop, take a moment and write out your plans for the future in every aspect of your life.

    If you are depressed,

    you are living in the past.

    If you are anxious,

    you are living in the future.

    If you are at peace,

    you are living in the present.
