Want A Better Life? Change Who You’re Being!

Category Enlightenment, Law of Attraction

Let’s paint a picture of two people who use different ways of trying to accomplish the same thing.

Let’s look at a shy person. Imagine the shy person trying to do all the things that an outgoing person would do such as going out to meet people, talking, and having fun with others. Underneath all of this, it still feels forced. It takes a lot of effort. This is the “fake it ’till you make it” method.

It may certainly work over time, but it will be a slow and arduous process. Eventually after seeing themselves DO things that look like what an outgoing person is doing, they may eventually believe that they now ARE an outgoing person and that’s when the shift will actually happen. That’s when things become natural and easy.

On the flipside, imagine a shy person who decides right from the start that they’re going to be an outgoing person. They choose to live in a new reality as someone who’s very outgoing. An outgoing person naturally likes being around others, cracking jokes, relaxing in the company of others, and genuinely enjoying themselves because it’s a natural part of who they are. They don’t have to try to think up things to DO because they naturally ARE outgoing.

Life is not about what you’re doing.

Life is about who you’re being.

The doing is a natural byproduct of who you’re being. Who you are is the source of all that you do.

Want to make a change in your life? A real, lasting change?

Quit trying to focus on what you need to DO to see the change and instead focus on who you’d need to BE to live the new reality.

Be the changed person Now.

One of the miracles of life is that we have the capacity to choose whomever we wish to be instantly!

Life is NOT about who we were and what we did in the past, though it generally may seem that way. Continuity between one present moment and the next may be “normal,” but it’s actually optional!

If you suddenly make a discrete shift in your beliefs, you will experience a sudden discrete shift in your Now reality.

The Present is the Now result of what you Now believe to be most true for you.

So be the Truth you wish to embody. Know it to be so and the universe will automatically respond in kind.

Always always place attention on who you’re being at any moment in time. Allow the things you do to naturally flow out of who you’re being. This is the path to mastery.

You are absolutely correct, Attitude determines altitude. If you act depressed, you will be depressed, If you act excited you will be excited.

I like that ‘life is about who you’re being’.

I would probably phrase it as ‘what you are’ from my perspective.

Jarrod, I agree with you. That perspective is actually a little higher than what I was presenting. Ultimately it’s about living as the Self, being a living God. As God, you have the capacity to exhibit various characteristics such as unconditional love, appreciation, grace, forgiveness, and so on. This variety of qualities are all parts of “what you are” and so both the perspective you brought up as well as the perspective I brought up are ultimately equally valid.
