A Mind Once Expanded…
“Man’s mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimensions.” Oliver Wendell Holmes
Do you agree with the quote: “If you’re not growing, you’re dying?”
It is so easy to let the days slip past – let each moment by and not be present in the moment.
We are thinking, or rather a lot of the time worrying of what may happen – stressed about our situations and circumstances – reacting to those around us, and really not listening to that voice within us.
The voice that scares us; makes us uncomfortable; makes us feel bad that we should want to listen to this voice.
The voice that tells us to embrace our deepest desires – our dreams that were taken, forgotten or moulded into something others want of us.
And we continue to live – time keeps passing and we forget we only have one life.
We forget that we have so much potential; we have this greatness within us.
We suppress it; we destroy it; we look to others to give us guidance; we acquiesce.
We accept our fate; we buy into the “reality” around us – but we still feel that hunger deep within for happiness, for living a truly lived life.
We want more passion.
We want more enthusiasm.
We want more strength.
We want more energy.
We want more life.
A Mind Once Expanded…
Let me tell you something true…
If I tell you, that I have experienced massive change in my life because I took action on that voice…
If I tell you, that I have met many others who have done the same…
If I tell you, that you should literally stop right now and ask yourself,
“What do I want?”
You will do one of two things:
you will ignore me or you will make this a turning point by making a decision.
See, a lot of people think that something incredible has to happen to make them change, and a lot of the time, it happens that something unfortunate has to happen for a person to wake up and realize that they have only one life to live.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
In my case, I was just sick and tired of being sick and tired.
If I tell you that I live on the beach in Costa Rica and do what I want daily, you will either believe me or you won’t. OR you will say, “that’s good for her, but she is different from me and I could never do that.”
The latter part of that makes me want to shake you.
I am no different than you – no better, no worse.
So, a mind once expanded can never contract again – in one way or another I have expanded your mind, but it’s up to you what you do with this.
“We lift ourselves by our thought, we climb upon our vision of ourselves.” Orison Swett Marden
