There are 2000 things going on immediately available for any person to be aware of and that human mind can deal with maybe 7 of them, tops. We pick and chose what reality we live in by the world we create with our focus. The premise of emotional control, life scope and control, variability and personal mobility are the big paradigms which make up our universes but the smaller questions are the easier and more immediate changes we can make. To change the car you own, friends you keep, job you have then change some of the medium sized focuses. To change who you are, change the more personal decisions. For this piece, I want to address the social and emotional scopes we can change, other pieces will be touched on of habit and personal mobility as they relate. Finally I will move on to explain a very huge piece of the self,god, in correlation with how you see yourself in your social construct of reality.
If you drive to the gym and think the whole time about how your mother wants your to listen to her, you’re going to do two things poorly. Whatever you do at the gym will be dry of testosterone and your mind-body connection flawed. The concern and issues of your madre shall persist unresolved with your wonder, worry and maybe even guilt growing. This is not a preach of staying focused but an example of connecting your thoughts to your emotions for preparing the situation best. If you’re going to take a test, imagine how great it will be when you have this job using these skills like they’re so easy and elementary. The highest level of this material will be your playground with creating something fantastic, be it a new terraform technique on Mars or people skills in Dairy Queen. This way the test seems like child’s play and still quite important and exciting. This is prepping for your universe with your thoughts, a simple example of how what you think about creates an emotional field to best play on. You do this with your thoughts, always. It can be done well or poorly and everyone has the control of that if they want.
The thoughts when you wake up in the morning prep the rails for your day’s train of thought. And so does every moment leading into a situation where you are not in control of all the factors. If you ask the questions,”what would charm them?; how could we connect?; what makes me and them happy?; where would be a fun place to be with these people?; what if I met someone amazing today?” then your brain flows those chemicals and ideas which fixate the preceding situation. Take any repeating shitty situation: crappy job, failing relationship, repeating fight, shitty drive, whatever. And you will find that you ask the same questions, or answer them in your head on their arrival or rising action. Change the questions and you change the future for you have suited up for a different party. You always create your own universe and you’re constantly doing so.
You get to pick.
