I’ve been reminded to move my focus from what currently IS to what I want things TO BE. It’s another exercise in developing my right hemisphere. Our left hemisphere thrives on focusing on the details and seems somewhat bent towards the details that aren’t exactly as we may wish them to be. The left brain can get a bit preoccupied with “what’s wrong” and “what needs fixing”. So, as I find myself whirlling around in the rush of “how do I fix this” I take a breath and move myself deliberately toward what it is I want.
The deliberate focus on how I want the situation to change puts me into the dream/imagination mode that the right hemisphere thrives on. As I focus only on the “what do I want” part of it, instead of the “how do I make it happen” part of it, the right hemisphere does it’s job at shifting my energy so that the solutions present them selves in a very natural, organic and often unpredictable way.
It has been helpful to understand myself well enough to know; when I begin to move towards coming up with a solution I need to move back and ALLOW myself to access the magic, and wisdom so often associated with the right hemisphere. Afterall – it SEES stuff we cannot see with our logical/finite minds. It can access another level of information and connection that we speak of as kismet, syncronicity, good karma, intuition and good luck.
Simple Math: Left is focused on problem. Right is focused on solution. When we stop relying on the left to manage both parts of the equation life unfolds in a much more magical way.
