I suggest you stop, go into the bathroom, wash your face, look at yourself, and say....(Your Name) What am I doing wrong?...... I just realized though, that the language in that statement is not effective in getting the answers you need. Instead.....ask yourself....How can I do/have/achieve this? this=whatever it is you are wanting to achieve. If you ask "what am I doing wrong?" not only are you confirming to yourself that you are in fact doing something wrong. You are also opening yourself to listing all the negative things about yourself beating yourself into a bigger hole. Questioning yourself negatively, allows yourself to think of all the negative things possible. You will always get answers from yourself, in asking yourself questions in the positive manner you only leave yourself the option to answer yourself positively. Be mindful when talking to yourself, because you actually do listen, say only positive things to yourself, even if it is about negative things. Talk to yourself in the "now" as our spiritual minds do not comprehend minor time issues, such as tomorrow, or yesterday. If you say, "I am going to start getting in shape tomorrow. Your mind hears "start getting in shape, TOMORROW" When is tomorrow? What tomorrow are we talking about? Today's tomorrow, or tomorrow's tomorrow? It is very confuseing to your mind and usually goals stated like that do not get accomplished. I apologize for my earlier post. I thought I had the answer then, I think I have the answer now. Tomorrow, I may change it, or I may even wonder what it was I thought I was answering, or, what is an answer anyway? Standards and whatever b/s aside, Set your goal, talk positively about it to yourself, like you already have it, tell people about it, write it down, and watch as you achieve it and realize you didn't want it in the first place. LIfe is about getting dirty ,learning, and growing. If you spend your time looking out the windows at what you want, and wondering why you can't have it. You will wind up spending your life that way before you knew what happened. Is it just me, or does time seem to fly faster now as an adult than it did in childhood? thank you for reading this post, have a great day, pixie
