"Your focus determines your reality" - Qui-Gon Jinn
You wake up and cannot wait for the day to end.
It's going to be a bad day.
You're too tired.
People are irritating.
You're frustrated at the bus being late.
I'm sure you've been there before.
I certainly have.
What usually happens?
It usually turns out the way you thought it would.
Why?
No, you cannot predict the future.
It is simple - you experience your life entirely within your mind.
Everything you think about a situation.
Everything you feel about a situation.
It is all a manifestation of the mind.
If you have preconceived notions that a situation will be negative, then that's what it will be.
You've already primed your mind with that negative thought.
If you are able to perceive an upside to each and every situation in life, then you'll benefit through positive experiences.
The quality of your life experiences all comes down to what you're focused on at any point in time.
Focus on what matters.
Focus on the positives.
Focus on what is within your control.
Focus on a life of love, gratitude and growth.
Strive to live, live to strive.
