Choice: It’s Up to You

For every light, there is a shadow, and it’s up to you which one gets your attention. The choice is yours.

There are people in this world who seem to only see the shadows. They bemoan bad luck and blame their failures on faulty circumstance. Then there are those who seem to always be successful. They look for the light…and often find it. These people are happy, content and satisfied with life.

The secret to this difference is the human brain’s limited ability to assimilate information. Every day you take in immense amounts of data, but you can’t process all of it. If you did, you’d get way too distracted. You’d possibly even go insane. So, at some point in human history, we developed a regulating mechanism that helps us focus. The things you’ve told your brain to look for (like the color green) show up vividly while everything else blends into the background.

You can stay focused on your problems and create more worry and anxiety, or you can start looking for what’s right, and create opportunities and fulfillment.

Being conscious about what you are you grateful and thankful for is a great start to finding the joy, happiness, and fulfillment you’ve always desired — and it’s your birthright to be joyful, happy, and fulfilled! What’s in your way from achieving that state of mind and feeling? Ask the Universe, “What does it take to find joy, happiness and fulfillment with total ease?” Don’t worry about looking for the answer yourself; Allow the answer to come to you and find you.

In light!
