Some people can think that other people are somehow more special or gifted than they are. This is only recognized with some negativity connected to it when one hasn’t found yet one’s own strongest talent(s). When they see someone successful for example, they might wish they could be like them. They say things like, “Must be nice…” or “I wish I could…”. A successful or happy person sees success and feels joy and inspiration. They can truly be happy for other successful people and be inspired to go after their own dreams.
No human is more capable than another. Surely I believe that we each got some talents and strengths which differ from the talents and strengths of another person. But with the capacity of using our mind first, we can learn practically almost any skill there is. If we are patient and willing to do the necessary to learn what we want to know and apply.
If you want to experience new and beautiful things in your life, there is a way for you to create it. It can take just a view steps or many, depending on what it is that you want.
A lot of people are so used to rather go for the short term and immediate pleasures of their daily life than investing time and effort in going for the long term pleasures which are also of a longer nature and don’t just disappear after a short moment.
Here are a view examples:
Watching TV or Netflix instead of working on your knowledge and skills for a fulfilling, successful, wealthy and happy life for example. Going out regularly with your friends to party instead of using some of that time to work on bigger goals and dreams, to happen step by step.
A lot of people live on one hand as if they would have all the time in the world. From the reincarnation point of view, that is right. From our personality point of view, it isn’t. We only have an uncertain amount of years in this life. And time doesn’t exist as we know it. Time as we know it, exists of the past, just memories of past events and experiences or thoughts about it. The present moment is by a lot of people not totally experienced due to their never-ending thinking or worrying about past or future events which happened recently or already some long time ago. The future exists just in the imagination. In the form of thoughts, worries, doubts, wishes, dreaming or looking forward to things, events or people for example.
There is only the eternal moment of the presence.
That is why the word “present” is a synonym of the word “gift”.
Any time else that seems to exist too besides the present moment is just memory or imagination. The past takes place only in your mind. If you stop thinking about it theoretically, the past wouldn’t exist for you anymore. It is the same with the future.
Even though we humans, with our memory and imagination ability, are wired to identify with the past and determine our actions on the very close future within seconds, minutes or days or, in case we use farsightedness and planning strategically, we determine our actions in the present moment for things we like to achieve in a still further away future than just some days or weeks. Seeding for reaping.
That is not wrong. The art lies in making the present moment and the actions, thoughts, and feelings of our desired future a beautiful and joyful dance together.
It is not contradicting to keep the future in mind by what you do and appreciate in the present moment. You only can influence your future in the present moment.
The art lies in doing it consciously and joyfully.
You see many just jump with their thoughts from the past to the future, to the past, to the future, to the past, and to the future. And this endlessly, without fully appreciating the very second they are alive actually. The only very second in which they can appreciate and impact their life self-directedly.
Are we alive in the past? Are we alive in the future?
Only in our thoughts in the present moment.
Once you start using this very moment more and more in which you are only alive, to learn to do or to do the things others do, you start doing, what they can do.
Because “time” is running, as everybody has realized, the moment when you arrive at your goal comes faster than you might think. Depending on how much you do in the present moment for it. But the running of the “time” can be your friend, once you start using the present moment correctly.
Decreasing the amounts of present moments between wishing and working for it and enjoying it when it is achieved or realized.
When others can do it, chances are very high, that you can do it too!
