Every Thought I Think Is Creating My Future

Every thought I think is creating my future.  Every thought you think is creating your future.

Sometimes it can be challenging to become aware of the thoughts we are thinking.  Some of us are busy, distracted and disconnected.  Some of us are caught up in and addicted to drama that runs our everyday lives.  Some of us live in constant loops that can be challenging to disengage from.

So where do we go from here?

We begin by becoming more present in the moment of NOW.  We get clear on what we want for our future.  We disengage from the drama, the distractions and the stress.  We take a look at what we are creating in the moment of now.  What is it that we see?  What are we thinking?  What has been created up until this point?

How are we reacting to the situations in our life?

For me, I want to and have been creating more joy and abundance in my life.  One of the things I focus on all the time is how I am feeling in the moment that I am in.  I have become very aware of when I feel good and when I don’t.  When I don’t feel good, I stop and become aware of what is transpiring around me and work towards getting back into feeling good.

A great example of what I am working on right now is how I react when the dogs are barking.  We have 2 amazing dogs, Zoe and Eddie (we call him Bubba).  They are so damn cute and hilarious!  The one challenge I am working on with them right now is that they bark insanely at anyone that walks by.  Let me tell you…people walk by all the time.  Up until recently, I would get major anxiety and get angry when they would bark.  It would irritate the hell out of me!  Instant reaction on my part of not feeling good.

zoe and eddieSo, first, I thought about the situation and became clear on what I want to see from this.  I came to the understanding that people are going to walk by…and those cute-ass dogs of mine are going to bark.  That it was up to me to change how I reacted to them barking.  Yes, I could bring them inside every time they bark…but that would get annoying really fast!  And I would still have the emotional reaction to deal with!

What I started doing was shift the energy I felt when they would bark.  They start barking, I have an emotional reaction, and then I counter that emotional reaction by thinking about something that makes me happy, joyous and feeling good.  This was the new pattern I created.  I would think about what I love about the dogs.  When Paul and I get home from being out (even for 30 minutes) Zoe would be greeting us at the door with her tail wagging and her ears all crinkled up.  We started calling her Yoda ears..because they looked like Yoda ears.  So CUTE!!!  Sometimes when Eddie is outside he rolls around in the grass with his legs flailing all over the place…so CUTE!!  There are so many moments, it makes it easy to turn this energy around.

The more I practice this, the less I react to the dogs barking.  AND GUESS WHAT??  The more I practice this, the less the dogs are barking!  How cool is that?

We can do this in all areas of our lives!  We just have to get clear on what we want to create and then start making changes with how we think and feel so that we can create the future that we want.

Start small.  Make it easy to win!  Pick something in your life that you would like to see change for the better.  Choose to think thoughts that support that new future.  Choose to think thoughts of balance, harmony, peace, joy, love, and start to express it in your life.

Where can you create more thoughts of balance, harmony, peace, joy and love in your life?

    Great post Drea!!!! I myself want to start doing this in my life as well! 😀

  • This is awesome Drea. In times of stress we have a tendency to focus on what is going on and what we don't want because its right in front of our faces. Bringing our thoughts and energy back to what we want instead of just passively observing, we really can create things differently. The dogs barking is such an awesome example of this. I enjoyed reading this post, thanks!

  • Thanks Drea for this post and the reminder to be in the now. How am I feeling right NOW! Also I appreciate the fact that you actually feel the 'negative' emotion. I remember first studying LOA and thinking that to create anything I had to be super positive & happy ALL the time. When in fact, what you are saying is recognise the feeling, whatever it is and then stop and think, how would I like this situation to be. Cheers!

  • I like your blog and wonderful affirmations Drea. The dogs are awesome. Positivity equals best results.

  • Great post! I love the pic of our two doggies. Slightly jealous that you get to watch them from your window all day. 🙂
