Are you a worrier? Do you try to plan things out, living in the future, so that you can avoid pitfalls and problems? Are you constantly thinking about all the “what ifs” that every situation and circumstance carries with it?
Uhh, man, if so, you are in good company! I was always a “planner” and a worrier…even as a very young child. I didn’t like to put myself in situations that I might get physically hurt in or look “stupid” by making a mistake (this is still a work-in-progress for me).
One of the older kids in our neighborhood group actually nicknamed me “lecture woman” because I was always telling everyone to “be care” and that they shouldn’t do whatever it was they were doing, if they were doing the wrong thing, because they were going to get in trouble. I was so young, I didn’t even know what “lecture” meant!
For someone who had “worrying” so ingrained in her, in my thoughts, in my emotions, in my every cell of my body, it was not easy to just stop worrying. After all, I was a worrier, it was one of the ways I described myself, it was who I was.
It wasn’t until I really became aware, on my own, how my worrying was really affecting my life and the quality of my living it that I became ready, and committed, to changing this trait of mine. By worrying all the time, I was essentially keeping my focus on all the negative possibilities that I could encounter in the future.
I was never allowing myself to live in the NOW; I wasn’t allowing myself to fully enjoy the good experiences in my life because I was always so caught up in planning to try to ensure good experiences in the future.
Luckily, we have Magicality, and our own personal Magnets as our guide. Worry is a negative thing and your Magicality Magnet abides so whatever you worry will happen, your magnet will quickly flip to a frown and coordinate with the Universe to call that worry into reality.
So, don’t allow your Magnet to make those worries and concerns come true. Worrying about the future robs you of the present moment! Don’t allow your worries to take over. Stop them dead in their tracks. Ask yourself when you notice yourself worrying which way your Magnet is pointing while you worry and decide if that’s the way you want it to be and flip accordingly.
Stop the endless worry cycle! Start living in the now, a positive now, a now filled with present moment happiness and appreciation! Strive to cut back your worries and live more in the moment. If I can do it, you definitely can too!
Thanks for being with me, in this moment, reading my post! I am grateful for your presence!
