""Then the focus has to stay on that you do want" - monica999

That is so incredibly difficult. For me, at least."

The more you do it, the more it becomes natural to do. We are taught to think that what we want is selfish, so it does become difficult to keep your focus on what you want, without expecting that it must be hard.

I have thought many times throughout the years that, in spite of what I had learned as a child and even as an adult, life is Not supposed to be difficult. That all I have gone through was due to me hanging on to thoughts that were not for my Highest Good. Yet, I was stuck in a mind space, that kept reminding me of how difficult life is. I kept repeating patterns (I am 45) over and over and over and... (you get the idea) and then when I turned 43 years old, I said "Enough already!". Then the process to become the Best Me and become aligned with God began.

I realize that staying in focus of what I want (whether others see me as selfish or not... I tell them this is the "Year of Beth"!) becomes easier each day I do so. When I Choose not to stay in focus my life has 'ups and downs'. I become dissatisified. Then I must pull myself back on track. While at work, when I was on days (and a couple times on afternoons, yet I do LOVE afternoons :D!) I would have to go into the locker room OR find a space that others were not inhabitating and stop. I would have to breath and release. I would have to go within and release. THEN I could go back onto the workroom floor and continue my day, (98% of the time, this was all it took) which become better!

It really is a matter of practice. It really is a matter of realizing what you want and becoming aligned with it. It really is a matter of expecting. You can expect to feel good OR you can expect to feel bad. I choose the feeling of good!

Have an Awe-filled evening...and Life!
