distractions


This morning, I was thinking about the two bald eagles I saw on Friday, and I can’t help but believe that most people driving along 116th St. in Fishers did not see the two massive birds hanging out and flying around.

I could have missed seeing them had I been distracted by my phone, other thoughts, or even changing songs on the radio.

There is no shortage of distractions today, which might keep you from receiving important messages from the Universe—you might be missing your bald eagles because you aren’t paying attention.

Not only might distractions keep you from receiving messages, but they can also be getting in the way of you getting connected with your Self; spending time on social media, getting pulled into media headlines, or participating in gossip all keep you from spending time with your Self—time which will help you get closer to your authentic life.

You don’t need to give those distractions up in totality, but reducing the distracted time will give you the time and space to connect to the things that matter most as you pursue your authentic life. The more you experience moments like I did Friday, the more you’ll want to make sure you reduce the distractions in your life and become more in tune with the Universe.

See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,

Your path, your character, your life, should be the most unlikely, the most unexpected, the least predictable version you can make. Improbable lives have fewer competitors, more unique rewards, and are harder to replace with AIs, since AIs run on the predictable. This is true whether you favor traditional humanist directions or work on a frontier.” -Kevin Kelly Your improbable life is your Authentic Life. See you...

“Every moment is a fresh beginning.” -T.S. Eliot T.S. Eliot offers us some great news. No matter what just happened, you are now at a starting point for a fresh beginning. You don’t have to carry the past forward if it doesn't align with where you are going, who you want to become, or no longer serves you. Leave it. Start new. What would the future version of your Self do? Do that. We always have the opportunity to reinvent our Self and move closer to our Authentic Self, and it starts in this...
