With all this talk about goals, it occurs to me that we may fall into a trap of waiting to be happy UNTIL we meet the goal. You know, something like “When I get to my ideal weight (or find my mate, or buy the new car…) then I will be happy.”
My question is why put it off?
According to the Law of Attraction, we are constantly putting out a vibrational frequency that varies with the thoughts that we have. And we are constantly receiving vibrations of that same frequency that gives us the results that we experience.
So if I am moping because of a disappointment in my progress, then I am putting out a low vibration and am going to be feeling lousy because I am focused on the LACK of what I want. And then I am going to get more of the same.
It is natural to feel disappointed. But when you recognize that you are feeling lousy, then it’s important to change that vibrational level by getting refocused on your positive intention.
- Revisit your intended outcome by writing about it or by looking at a picture of it. You can draw a picture of it too.
- Feel the satisfaction and excitement that comes with experiencing what you want. Yes, do it now.
- Change your posture. Stretch, straighten your spine, put your shoulders back and take several deep breaths.
- Go for a walk and look around you, gazing out in the distance.
- Call or visit someone who is a positive influence and is encouraging and supportive.
- Read something inspiring.
- Listen to some great music and dance. Yes, turn up the volume and go to town!
In short, be determined to practice feeling great right now! There’s no point in putting it off. Your health and outlook will be brighter and so will your eventual outcome. Feeling good right now will increase your energy and make the attainment of your goals much easier.
