Daydreaming
I have several very interesting readings on the table, let's review them and see what they tell us:
From the Upanishads: “When the person is sleeping he attains the state of master and is enveloped in his own light. There are no blessings there, no happiness, no joy; nevertheless; the person creates blessings, happiness and joy. There are no lakes there, no lotus ponds, no springs; however the person creates lakes, lotus ponds and springs. In that state the person is truly the doer.” In a dream the most amazing things happen in a simple way. What is necessary is there.
The average person enters their daily nightmare because they never create a beautiful dream. The daydreamerWhen you make a wish, you enter a new potential reality; and when she stops stroking him, he comes out of her. The difference between what you know as reality—what happens—and what you call a dream—what you want to happen—is so subtle that it may not exist. It reminds me of the comment of the philosopher HD Thoreau:
"Our truest life is the one that occurs when we daydream." What is true for you?
Other book: through the looking glass, by L. Carroll, where Alice hears the Queen say the following: “When I was your age, I believed for half an hour a day in impossible things. Sometimes, I have come to believe in six impossible things before breakfast” Me too.
And they often end up being possible.
A philosophy book by R. Waldo Emerson says: “What Plato thought he can think. He can feel what a saint has felt: he can understand what has happened in any age to any man. He who has access to this universal spirit is a participant in everything that has been done or can be done.”
And here one of my favorites: the fascinating book Field (Sirius Editions). In it, its author, Lynne McTaggart, tells us how certain Amazonian tribes consider night dreams as something shared and not exclusive to those who dream them. So much so that every morning they share their waking dreams. For them, the dream chooses the individual to reveal himself to the community.
Some scientists are beginning to view the brain as a "receiver" for the mental material of the entire species stored in the Field of All Possibilities. A seedbed of ideas, of dreams. Can you imagine the implications if the brain, instead of being a closed storage system, were an open retrieval system?
And, finally, the book that I present to you is intended to invite you to daydream. Once your dream takes possession of your heart, you will no longer want to live with your back to it. Your dreams are in your heart for a reason, and let's see what it is.
Three questions that can change your life:
1. Does my current lifestyle speak to my heart?
2. What is not perfect and could be?
3. In what do I not apply enough action that creates my dissatisfaction?
Three tasks for immediate action:
1. Write down what your values are, what is important to you at this time in your life. Sort them by priority, from highest to lowest importance. Next to it, write down the percentage of time and energy you give them. During this journey, increase your commitment to what is important to you.
2. Imagine that suddenly your current job disappears from the face of the earth and that nobody wants what you do anymore. It is time to choose again. Now, choose five new professions that are attractive to you; and among them, one to which you would like to dedicate the rest of your life. Do not worry at this time if you have the skills or not.
3. Simplify your life in all aspects and gather the energy and time you will need to achieve your goals. Let go of activities and relationships that don't "speak" to your heart or diminish your personal power, your energy, and your time. Going where your heart is absent is a painful waste of time. Make a list of everything you are going to leave behind.
An idea to summarize:
Accept dissatisfaction as a sign of needed change, not as an annoyance. Use it as fuel to improve the current situation and transform it into the creative impulse of the desired situation.
"This dissatisfaction is not an annoyance but a sign of necessary change"
“This dissatisfaction is the fuel that will take me to my desired state”
